Message: [QUOTE="SeaDog, post: 4931926, member: 11917"] To preface, Alex has done a lot of things very well lately. His backdoor cuts, screening, and rebounding have all been solid. That said, as I thought about how we get beat as the competition intensifies, I think it comes down to a) Clingan/Castle avoiding foul trouble and b) Alex's outside shooting. Clearly, we've been fine without it so far but against elite offensive teams, we need to put up points and don't think Donovan will feast quite as much going forward. The last 10 games haven't been great for Alex. He's shooting 34% from 3, 5 points below his season average. That includes 2 terrific 3P shooting games against PC and MU. Excluding those 2, he's 9 for 38 (24%) and 6-22 over his last 5 games. To me, he's seemed hesitant on a few open looks that he usually pops. Hoping he comes out hot on Thursday (or we get prime time Stewie stepping it up again). [ATTACH type="full" width="358px"]98217[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
