    Do they have stats for that? I'm not actually arguing here, I just wonder if the stats match the eyes on this.

    Right now CJ or Anthony is shooting well. But once again Trent giving us something off the bench.

    especially after they throw a bunch away early...then stop looking to pass....there were some glaringly off target passes in the paint early

    Our 2nd quarter shot chart so far...
    11 of 12 shots have come from 15 feet or longer. The only shot inside was Nas getting an offensive board and getting blocked...

    The main problem this year is no one is hustling. The cause seems to be that nobody is having fun. I think this is in turn is caused by our players simply not enjoying each other’s company that much (which is made worse by all these road games).

    Lots of the new guys are awkward, shy, or young. Last year we had strong personality-chemistry. Some of the guys like Meyers played since Dame was drafted. Then we also lost big personalities like Evan Turner, who was basically a stand up comedian. If ET and nice-guy Meyers were around I doubt we’d have body language this bad.

    They turned over a bunch of attempts in the paint...I think that's a big part of shot selection so far

    I mean, I'm sure there is but you know defensive stats aren't the most accurate.

    Honestly this game looks like two bottom 5 lottery teams playing against each other. It’s crazy how far the blazers have fallen off

    When Nance and Thompson are WIDE open every play that should be your cue to change something up a little.

    Earth to our coach!

    It's weird how much they're running the offense through Tolliver.
