He plays out of control a lot but he had good energy and a good 3 shot tonight.
Well Rojas and Shack were both either shooting it or driving it into crap every catch. But Rojas settled in during the second half on offense and let things happen instead of forcing everything. Now maybe he can get Shack to follow his lead.I think a lot of Rojas playing out of control is him sitting out last year. This guy hasn't played in a real in over a year and it's not like we are playing cupcakes either. I think once he gets more comfortable, he will settle in nicely. His energy should be contagious like COVID.
Rewatched the second half this morning once again and it hurt me to watch Shack play. Multiple times all 5 guys were outside the 3 point line and the ball is swung around the perimeter from the baseline. Rather than continuing to rotate the ball and make the defense shift once it got to Shack after two passes he decided to just kill the momentum by trying to drive.Well Rojas and Shack were both either shooting it or driving it into crap every catch.

Dead on. This is what people don’t understand about the way he’s playing right now. Absolutely destroys any hope of offensive rhythm and ball movement.Rewatched the second half this morning once again and it hurt me to watch Shack play.

He got his shot and played poorly. 0 points and 1 rebound in 10 minutes. I'm 60 years old, but I would have to try awfully hard to not get a single rebound in 10 minutes. If nothing else, sheer effort alone should put you in position for one to just fall in your lap at some point. Hopefully that experiment is over. Time for more Gary and Ambrose-Hylton.I could see Rojas starting very soon
Disagree on Ambrose-Hilton. He’ll be a solid player in time but right now he’s just not ready. The weird thing to me is that Rojas started but only got 10 minutes of PTHe got his shot and played poorly. 0 points and 1 rebound in 10 minutes.

Ah... Didn't notice that. Makes sense.He stayed in foul trouble. He had 4 fouls right after the 2nd half started.
Anyone else think Rojas looks like Lenny Kravitz or is it just me?
He finished the game with more fouls than points, rebounds, and assists combined. It's hard to have a worse stat line than that.He stayed in foul trouble. He had 4 fouls right after the 2nd half started.
Alex Reese gonna say "hold my beer" tonight.He finished the game with more fouls than points, rebounds, and assists combined. It's hard to have a worse stat line than that.
