  1. LOL he definitely thought there was going to be a whistle

  2. Dysons inability to finger roll the basketball will be the death of me. 50% of his misses at the rim feel like they’re not makes because he can’t just roll it off his hand

  3. Dyson should just dunk more. Just be filthy with it. Many many fewer misses.

    What’s the most amazing part of this breathtaking sequence?

    The way Daniels has to keep his head down to watch his own dribble?

    Pushing off Fox with the wrong arm, because he can only dribble under pressure with his strong hand? (Which should have been an offensive foul.)

    Rushing directly at the rim, which works if you’re going to dunk – then refusing to dunk, even after Fox is out of the way?

    Adjusting to his left to get an angle for a layup – but jumping too soon to shoot it?

    The tunnel vision turning his back on the team’s best outside shooter spotting up for a wide-open three?

    Or the shot itself – a full-speed five-foot floater without a prayer of going in?

    Dyson is shooting 65% from 5-9 feet. That’s 10% better than any other Pelicans player. If he wants to take a floater I’m not going to be mad at it.

    Turns out that if you pick one missed shot from one game and overanalyze it to hell and back you can make any player look bad.

    I would do anything for any one of Z, CJ, or BI to pull Dice to the side, and make a deal to give him 5K$ every time he dunks the ball.

    Dyson loves that floater but i’d love for to use his size (pause) and not shy away from contact.
