  • Where is Pattrick Patterson?

    It wasn't too long ago he was having 4/5 3PT shooting nights regularly... Is he simply struggling? Or have other teams just guarded him properly?
    It seems like he really struggles against contested 3PT attempts.. Which is understandable , he's only been recently working on his game as far as I know , but damn can't we run a play for him to get a wide open look...? Every other team has methods to find shooters, why don't we ?

    Also , don't you guys think it would be nice to have JV/Ross/Pat to be on the floor , feed the ball to JV either he gets an ISO or if he gets doubled , dish It out to Patterson or Ross for the wide open shot? Maybe easier said then done , but surely it can be expected of them to stretch the floor and he can make a 1 handed pass like Shaq used to do.

    Casey doesn't run plays unless its a guard running into an entire team. Same reason Novak was useless in Toronto. Unless Casey runs plays designed to get 2Pats looks he won't get shots unless defenses collapses and one of our guards find him. A stretch 4 doesn't run around like a SG. Haven't run Pick and Pops with him all season.

      He's enjoying that -19C cold warning... He'll be back soon.

        Teams have adjusted to Patterson and Williams and guard both of them a lot more tightly now. Theoretically that means there should be more room for drives. DeRozan might help take advantage of that.

          He's in a shooting slump. He was in one to start the year when he was a starter. He'll get out of it.

            The last couple games I've noticed that with the together defending, he's been rushing his shot and, as a result, releasing it slightly higher than usual (and/or not following-through as much). This has caused his shot to have a higher arc and to consistently come up short, grazing the front of the rim.
