    Tough when OG and Schroder both have total off nights at the same time. Pascal just being unable to hit 3s is a weird development. Sure, he wasn’t a sharpshooter before, but he’s consistently been above 30% and able to hit a fair amount of 3s.

    The weaknesses are so glaring yet the front office is still in evaluation mode.

    Despite this stat, I thought the defense was more disappointing. The Knicks are a team Toronto should be able to lock down. And if they can’t lock down a team like the Knicks, they might as well blow it up.

    There are too many lapses….guys not picking up their assignment. Guys not ready to help, guys picking up with too much pressure giving up drives in the paint. Guys flat footed not ready to gang rebound.

    They have the tools to be a great defensive team, but they play defense stupid. Very similar to last year, unfortunately. They need discipline.

    I think it’s time to start Gary, let Scottie run the point and have Dennis be the back up pg

    Doesn’t matter whether you’re wide open or not if you can’t shoot to begin with

    Prefer we’re creating chances through Darko’s system. This is fine.

    Damn too bad we don’t have a shooter like FVV who avg 37% from 3…

    “I was the guy that was wide open. I was taking these shots and the team used to be like — WHAT ARE YOU DOING? — I remember Danny Granger was mad at me for taking a shot. And I was like, I’m wide open! And he was like, why do you *think* you’re wide open?

    You know when you ask the question to yourself, *why do you think I’m wide open*, and I was like….OHHHHHHH…”

    Schroder has regressed back to career average (.351) from three and Gary is still scuffling a bit at .362 compared to his career avg.

    The only real above average shooter on the team are OG, Barnes and Boucher and the latter two we don’t have enough sample size to trust.

    Yet another indication that Darko is doing the right things, but this roster construction blows

  12. This team has a ceiling of a .500 team if they can’t address their shooting. You can’t win more than half your games when every other game you shoot 15-30% from three

  13. This could be an easy fix for bobby/masai.

    1. Go to ESPN and check who has a good three pointer percentage this season, and preferably some bench player who teams can lose.

    2. Overpay the shit out of him.

  14. We brought in Otto Porter Jr. and don’t even play him. They have nothing but themselves to blame.
