Paulo Alves

But he's down to 40%.

I think he likely ends the year around 37%, which is not that far off his career average with the hot start that he had.

And even while he's at 40% from three, his efficiency through shooting-wise is way down from last season.

He seems to be a little bit more skilled finishing at the rim and stuff like that, but decision-making is on off a cliff offensively as well.

He doesn't seem to crash the boards nearly as well as he used to.

He doesn't seem to be playing defense nearly as good as he used to.

And then, you know, you go across the board.

Kingun Samur, who, and I said this on the post-game show a couple of episodes ago,

Someone who we were expecting to take a leap offensively, which is supposed to be the easy part, right?

For a player like him.

But not only did he not take a leap offensively, earlier in the season when he was shooting threes, well, he's not shooting threes anymore.

That person has created a crater back down to earth.

But offensively, he's not only not being efficient, it seems like his game has changed to a point where...

It's not as diverse.

He's a lot more one-dimensional in the way that he's trying to post up guys.

He got the wizard nickname for a reason.

And it seems like the way he's trying to score is a lot of the same stuff.

A lot of the same, you know, get the ball in the perimeter, try to back a guy down into a baby hook.

Or face up into a flamingo pull-up, which is a terrible shot for anybody in the league, including Cahoon.

And then he's not even getting those opportunistic possessions that he used to have earlier in his career where he would get offensive rebounds.
