Awwwww. KP IS AIMING HIS SHOT! He needs a post up or shot off a curl to get his confidence up.
KP's shot (which looked so solid early in the season) appears to have deserted him. Is he tired or just not as good an outside shooter as we originally envisioned?
All the Magics shots are inside the paint .. all our shots are 25 feet outside WTF!
2-11 from downtown has killed us first half. Still I'll take this deficit seeing we will play a lot better 2nd half.
KP's jumper has been off. Tired legs or just shooting too hard. He needs to stay in rhythm and shoot more often, like early in the season. Still his D has been FANTASTIC. I honestly think he's our best defender impact wise, by far.

A nice combination of 3 . . . that we couldn't have expected so soon.Great base from which to develop. Just great.
I really think trying to add Mike Conley to that group next summer would be awesome. He's around the same age as Melo and Afflalo - allows you to max out the Melo/Afflalo years.
They need to start posting AA up.
Really disappointed with KP shot selection its TERRIBLE
Look at his shot near the basket--dunk these 30 footers or step back 20 footers GOD AWFUL. Please stop its been too many games in a row youre not dumb take good shots.
Finish half strong. Get a stop
Like no fast break points

too many days in a row with this dumb posting. If the fukker could get inside to dunk the fukker would dunk! Geeez
Melo getting nothing from the refs again. Huge shot from him to end the half.
Feel like we're lucky to only be down six at the half in a (so far) lackluster effort by pretty much everyone but Melo.
Weird 1st half. Really missed KOQ IMO! The bench wasn't the same with Seraphin. Not liking Sasha instead of Jerian either.
Nice 3 to end the half to bring within 6. Really need Fish to realize in the 2nd half that they've got to play some smaller lineups. I think we played like Seraphin/Lopez exclusvely at 5, and Porzingis all his minutes were at 4. The Magic play a SF at 4 and they play 3 guard lineups. You can't match up and rotate on D if you play so big.
Fish has to go small, I see this almost every game and it seems Fish does it a few games then completely abandons. So tired of this.
Melo getting fouled a lot by Tobias Harris. Not getting many calls.
Hopefully that changes in the second half.
But the fact that Harris only has one foul at the half is absurd. I've seen him foul Melo three or four times.

If this trio of KP-Melo-AA can be counted on . . . and the current top-5 defense can continue . . . then we are in really great shape.
"All" (LOL) we then need to jump to the next level (a playoff team) is to do something about Calderon.

I agree with this. Too many three pointers.
