is really starting to assert himself. Yes some of it is matchups, but he's "making it happen" with greater regularity. Like Braden I think the coaches are getting through that he needs to be aggressively seeking his shots.

FWIW...Braden covers more court per minute than any other player and it does take a lot of effort to create for others, find others, and yet score and rebound as well. I'm a bit amazed with how hard he can play for the minutes he plays doing all he does...Still had issues in second halves most games,
What were his issues this past game? He missed a few wide open 3s that he usually knocks down. But no one could hit from 3 this past game.Still had issues in second halves most games,
He was very impactful for an off shooting night.Agree
I actually like seeing him go 6-14 and 1-6 from 3.
Not the prettiest line, but it puts pressure on D and it's only a matter of time before he goes on a heater again like he did @ Minny.
I understand exactly what you are saying. Fletcher is VERY cerebral in the game...VERY. Although stronger this year...athletic as far as D1 would not be a word used to describe him as that isn't his major strength. He is having a very good year this year and I'll forgive his poor angle pass to Trey that was intercepted last night as one coming due to fatigue...I have a love/hate relationship with Fletch. I hate that he seems like an unathletic white guy playing in a church league, but then he goes out and produces and love what he brings as a compliment to Smith.
Now, don't freak out y'all, but Fletch's game reminds me a little bit.....take a breath....of Larry Bird. Now, again, don't spaz on me. I'm not saying Fletch is the next LB, but he's got a very crafty, sneaky game for having little to work with from an athleticism standpoint.
Feel free to discuss....
