    PJ, pump fakes, drives baseline (or down lane) and airballs or bricks layups

    Especially when he drives to the basket ! It’s cringeworthy, I know the guy shoulders a massive amount of the defensive load burn come on PJ just sad as **** dude !!!

    P.J. is exhausted. When you are busy covering other peoples mistakes on the defensive end you start to make a few mistakes of your own

    Don't forget below average hops, length and inside shooting to finish!

    I think the rest of the team should run back on defense the moment Tucker drives on a pump fake

    I get that to a point but he looks like he’s never played basketball whenever he gets near the hoop for a layup, a dunk, a floater or bunny .. man it’s brutal to see anymore. He was never super smooth but lately he looks god awful amen of course he rarely hits any 3s with any consistency. I love the guy but is it asking to much to hit an easy layup once in a while ?

    I'm sure PJ will see this and go on a massive scoring binge attempts, we go 1-5 when he scores 2 pts+.

    Your observations are spot on but this is what happens when you are the back line of defense at 6 foot 6 going up against 7 footers and 6 ft 10 power forwards

    Love PJ, really do, but would it kill him to ease up on the pancakes.

    The syrup all over his hands are not helping him at all.

    Is this the same bizarro stat as being 93-7 or whatever, when Hartenstein plays significant minutes?

    Tucker's like a catcher with great arm and glove but hit .150

    So, if MDA was smart enough, he would tell PJ not to score AND play Hartenstein more than 15 minutes every game, then we'd be near undefeated.

    If only MDA was that smart. :(

    We have the 3rd best offense in the league. So clearly a lack of offense is what's hurting this team. We need to bench Tucker and replace him with somebody that scores more.

    There are so many stupid people on this board, sometimes the magnitude of it really pisses me off.
