We are playing very good defensive basketball--we just need to hit good shots to win--giving the other team so many opportunities with missed shots isn't the way you win games.

Agreed Briggs. I don't have a problem with Gallo taking his 3's (he did take 11 of them but also went to the line 7 times) - he's going to make a high % of them, but I do have a problem with Harrington taking 7 of them. Harrington shot horribly from the floor today and should've been more focused on taking the ball to the hoop instead of still chucking up those 3's that he was taking.

Harrington absolutely killed us today with his 5-20.

gallo was 5-7 from 2 and 3-11 from 3. he was just as bad as Al.

so 8-18 is just as bad as 5-20? I dont get that....

he was just as bad with his shot selection. why take 11 3's especially when you have the mid range J going? matter offact why take 11 3's period?

This is not Hakeem's Rockets or Shaq's Magic or Howard's Magic. This is a team that needs a collaborative of things to go right to win. Get the **** off the 3 line and take better shots Galinari.

Gallinari goes 5/11 and the game is an overtime game- 6/11 and we win. He is just not hitting his 3's at this point, for whatever reason. Most of the 3s he took were shots he should make as much as he misses.

He drove to the basket a lot his game- witness his 7 foul shots.

Too many holes in our interior D this game, which is something we have improved on in recent games, and too much Wade in the end.


exactly... plus gallo was open.. I guess that is what this offense calls for, if you are open, shoot the three... I still don't see how 8-18 and 5-20 are the same.....

Anyone who sits around and waits for the lottery to better themselves, either in real life or in sports, Is a Loser............... TKF

Already stated his shot selection was just as bad as Al's. Now if you want to argue who was more worser then I agree Al was more worser than Gallo.

the stop underrating David Lee movement 1. FIRE MIKE 2. HIRE MULLIN 3. PAY AVERY 4. FREE NATE!!!

Gallo took the right number of shots and those wide open 3's were good shots that he just missed. I think over the course of a season he'll win us more games than he loses taking the same shots. His game is evolving tho and he's driving more. I don't worry about him making the adjustment to fewer 3's, tho I expect him to still take a lot of 3's.
