Nice video. But here is the problem. Do you really want your 6'11'' big man 22 feet away from the basket shakin and bakin and throwing up 3's??? How many nights is that stategy gonna be sucessful??? Not very many. The cock needs to develop a mid-range game like Dirk. He needs to bulk up so he can catch the ball on the block and either face up or shoot a nasty fade because you can't count on those three's night in/ night out.
Man, you really don't know anything, never did your whole time here.
Gallo's MAIN strengths are his mid range game and his ability to slash to the basket with his deceptive quickness and his footwork that is so fundamental and superiorly skilled.
Gallo has been a SPOT UP SHOOTER for D'Antoni because of his BACK.
Simply.
Gallo can be agressive in the paint, he was most of his time in Europe where bball can be compared to the physicality of the basketball in the 80's (ask Kobe where he was quoted saying this)
But its not smart, because Gallo is here for the long term. Letting him be physical in the pain will put him at risk.
He doesn't need that.
He's going to let his back fully heal before he goes back to his old ways of slashing and cutting to the hoop.
Gallo is shooting like 48% from 3pt...thats like 10 percent higher than when Crawford has a rediculously hot night or 20 percent higher than Crawford is in chuck and miss mode.
We haven't had a shooter like Gallo since Houston...so you to need to FALL BACK and SIT DOWN...let Gallo shoot because he's been the reason why we've been hanging in some guys. The kid is a winner, he plays to win.
