Please. Shooting it at what 29 percent for the year?

Does not matter if your wide open, dont do it. Sullinger needs to understand limitations. Bass doesnt take 3s for a reason.

Sully keeps "antoine walkering' it and he needs to go.

Well, he deserves it, don't you think?

The game was within reach and he keeps chucking up 3's?!

Ridiculous

While it's true he did take bad shots, it does not justify people saying: TRADE THIS MAN!

Sully can shoot the three, but only within the flow of the offense.

Those three at the end, though, definitely weren't in the flow of the offense. I think it's more about shot selection and timing than him not shooting it at all.

Exactly.  The announcers kept saying take it to the basket.

29 percent 3 point shooting percentage

Yeah ...I think the Sully three need s to stop .

His big body needs to be around the paint to  suck in rebounds

Two points in he paint ....beats a three brick every time .

Sully is playing way out of position.

2-10 in the second half, maybe even worse.  Shot us right out of the game. 

I know we are tanking because Bass was killing it and we took him out.   We got close a lot in this game and then Sully came in.  Also, having Crowder who didn't produce for long stretches mystifies me, he plays some D, but that doesn't offset his other absences.

Sully is getting closer and closer to last year's horrific 28%.   I would be elated if we could get a second rounder for him.  I also think, he is wearing his uniform looser as he has packed on some pounds.

His D was woeful as well, Donatas Motiejunas  looked like an allstar with Jared on him.

I agree with the Bass assessment. I am sure if he tried, Bass could shoot at least 29% from three.

As for Walker, at least he could run an offense and will a team to victory while launching all those threes.

Statistically the best player on the team.

He's gonna get game planned against. And he's gonna have down games being so young.

Sullinger needs to keep shooting threes.

And Zeller and Bass also.

It's the only way to get better at it.

Round Sully looked like he needed a week off after that road trip.

Hey 3boy,

You see that Rondo got benched in the fourth again? If this keeps happening we might get Rondo for 8 mil a year.

There is getting better and then there is  never going to get better. Sully has had a year and a half to get better.  He should focus now on perfecting his "go to shots". Like David West and that auto 15-17 ft jump shot

Be efficient.
