    Today's question of the day: Which elimination game performance do you prefer - Franz's Game 7 (10 pts, 1/15 FGs) or Franz's Oly Semi (10 pts, 4/10 FGs)?

    Another great show Philip. Maybe Orlando put to much pressure on Franz with the big contract. We could have and probably should have waited till next year. As far as his shooting along with AB will be a real drag on our offense. There lack of shooting will also affect the other 3 on the floor. Everyone on the floor has to be able to shoot. One guy can’t just be the layup guy.

    3-point shooting, finishing and assertiveness for the next two years is where the focus should be for him.

    Franz need to get in the gym and practice nothing but 3 points shots. Because if teams stop him from going to basket his only option is to pass out. If gets better at 3 pt shot it will open his game more.

      Agreed, he needs to take these danm midrange and make them as well... Be a complete 3 level scorer.. now he's only a 1and a half level scorer

      Franz doesnt need 3 pointers. What he needs to improve and be consistent at is his post up moves and mid range jumper. Hes a forward not guard. He needs to use his size to his advantage.

      ​@@DinoBlaxx Not that he lacks the will but hes well guarded. When hes well guarded he cant make shots. Thats what he needs to improve more.

    Franz needs time to improve his game not drive home what he's already good at. That's what this tournament did. Just drive home his strengths which highlighted his weaknesses. If they shutdown the drive, franz is cooked. This also highlighted the benefit of a true guard.

      I tend to agree. And like I said, I did not necessarily have a problem with his Game 7. You go down doing what got you there and that's what he and the Magic did. But we now have two elimination games where Franz did not play up to expectations. We have to think about what that means and how he can get better. I didn't make the comparison to criticize and I hope that I drew on how the two games were different and the middle ground Franz has to find.

  • @danielhicks4040

    Also stop making comps of FIBA to NBA. Its silly. Is Tatum a scrub because he’s not playing for Team USA. Also putting this loss on Franz is way too much. Schroeder who has gotten too much credit in wins, shot 6-18, and were talking about Franz not being clutch in elimination games. While admittedly being double and triple teamed. Come on

    • @LockedOnMagic
      @LockedOnMagic  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Both Schroder and Franz didn't give their team what they needed. Hard to win when your two best players aren't scoring. Give France a lot of credit.

      He's 22. Go back and watch his shot profile from that game. They are the exact kind of shots you want and trust Wagner to take and make.
