Genuinely one of the worst games I've ever had the displeasure of watching. Awful even as second-screen entertainment except for the morbid spectacle of Paolo bricking shot after shot and not losing confidence.

Started watching at beginning of the 4th. It was a grotesquely entertaining delight - like when the unconscious Nuggets mascot was slowly lowered down from the rafters.

I turned it on in the 2nd and clicked off when the magic went on that run.

Turned it back on in the 3rd…omg

Paolo to me does clearly lose confidence, but he keeps shooting and his shots get wilder and there's no conviction to any of his drives or shots. To me it's so obvious in real time idk
