    5 midrange jumpers and multiple catch and shoot attempts

    the last time he took 5 midrangers in a game had to be pre-MDA

    they look very makeable and quite easy to create

    Is he adjusting his game as he’s aging and can no longer dominate at the rim?

    Looked very slow and turnover prone. Philly is better off with Tobias at Sg and Maxey at point.

    Alcohol and late night parties have finally caught up to him and he ramps that up in the playoffs.

    I went to the Wizards-Rockets game in 2019 (the night the Nationals beat the Astros in Game 7) and he did this same thing, more or less on his own off to the side for a lot of warmup pregame blah blah. I think it's just a Russ thing.

    Pistons offense makes my eyes bleed…slow, and they have no shooting

    Casey is too old school of a coach for this era

    Cade is the low efficiency chucker people think Jalen Green is.

    I wouldn’t go as far as to call him a chucker but I don’t see how anyone would prefer him to Jalen Green. His ability to create offense for himself (and thus his ceiling) is limited by his lack of athleticism.

    I’m watching them play the Grizz and while Cade is definitely skilled he can’t reliably get by anybody. As it stands Saddiq Bey is their best player. Cade feels like a Malcolm Brogdon type. That’s nothing to scoff at but not what you want from your #1 overall pick.

    Cade seems like the kind of player that needs multiple all star level players around him and he becomes an all star/HOF level complementary guy if they win some titles


    But if you put him on a crap team he's just deck chairing the titanic.

    Also Detroit looks Ike they're going to be conscripted into the Wembytank brigade despite some projections otherwise.
