Not surprising, as soon as Lively leaves the floor it becomes BBQ chicken in the paint for the opposing team. Still think we need more size and should look for another wing defender and center
Its a roster full of shooters leading the league in 3pt attempts per game at nearly 43% of shot attempts so of course they won’t be in the paint. Can’t have it both ways..
Lukas paint scoring has gone down massively this season for whatever reason.
I don’t understand why this team didn’t try to sign Bismack. I like Seth, but his spot would have been much better used on Biyombo who is now playing some very productive minutes for the Grizzlies.
That is a recipe for disaster. We need to fix this asap, relying on 3’s with this defense will result in last year all over again.
