I understand the need to threaten the defense horizontally, not just vertically, and that screens and swing passes are going to be part of the gameplan, but it's frustrating to see the play calls poo from throwing down the field to more horizontal when the offense is clicking.  Seems to have disrupted the rhythm we had the first couple drives.

That pressure wasn't enough to affect that throw.  He literally completed a pass he's comfortable with on one of those early drives with a defender hanging on him as he released it.  He also threw a pass to Hurst, at least within his catch radius, in the endzone while getting drilled on an earlier drive.

That was an easy toss in the bucket bc Chark already beat his man, Bryce just had to give him a chance and he didnt.  Now, Bryce has made some good throws today, but he still has yet to make those throws when they're open and it's a big problem.  Until he does, teams are not going to respect it.  He's still only shown that he's comfortable throwing in the middle of the field up to 15 yards max.

 

Agree to disagree.  Throwing deeper lob type passes over defenders to drop it in is different than throwing darts.

    • Ehlers needs to sit. Definitely can't lose him to a meaningless game.
    • Bet didn't hit because the referee missed 3 clear corner kicks. I had a 5k parlay that would have been alive tomorrow if he didn't miss those calls as well. Super annoying 
    • I don't think it's at all a given that we have players who are good at driving the basket. I guess that depends on your definition. Bridges is 43rd in attempts in the paint Miller is 64th and LaMelo is 66th. We all love to see the lob threat but it's largely miniscule at this point in time. There's gotta be a solution here if LaMelo is to be the centerpiece because this is simply not sustainable if we want to continue to ascend. If he can't drive to the basket then that means we need to add another player to the core who consistently can. That would require moving someone like Miles Bridges. And that's certainly not going to be popular with LaMelo but something has to give here for what we are investing and we need to maximize guys like Miller and Knueppel on rookie deals while we still can. The three chucking is fine when it's working where the issue comes into play is there are no adjustments when it isn't and we just go into a shell and begin to look like the Hornets of yesteryear. That's why the offensive evolution of all involved is critical to us taking the next step. Getting to the play in is nice but we should have our sights set much higher. Right now though they need to take care of business against the Heat. All I ask is that they at least beat those fools. I cannot stand the Heat.
