    We're horrible on offence, we need someone to score and we saw on preseason, summer league he is capable. Also he is our most offensively skilled big and if he can take the opposing teams centre or Power forward out of the key he will help the rest of the team, so no I think he should keep on doing what he is, his shooting % will improve, just think he's starting te season a little bit slow.

    Until he regains his outside touch, he needs to mix in some more drives and drop steps to the bucket. Maybe add a running hook into the middle of the lane. We need some sort of low post threat, and he is the only hope to develop into it, 'cause Tyrus and Biyombo won't.

    Not sure if serious regarding the preseason and summer league stuff.

    But almost every 3 he shoots ends in a long rebound and trip in the other direction. He takes his best asset (his rebounding) out of the equation by camping the 3pt line. Also, Indy and Dallas both started to leave him alone past 18ft. He's a living, breathing turnover or defensive lapse on the court.

    Did you not watch preseason or look at any game stats? He is definitely capable of making all the shots he's taking.

    Stop flipping out because he's in a slump. He'll get it together damn.

    he has no reality on his range. he is $$$ from 16ft in. he needs to hang out there. his made three's last night were from the corner. this should be his effective playing range.

    To be fair on Mullens not having reality on his range, Dunlap was very adamant during training camp about players not taking deep 2s & instead learning to opt for beyond the arc. Yet still, I think he should shoot less and learn to pick his spots. Even Ryan Anderson don't shoot every open look.

    You can't ask The Ivory Durant to stop shooting... That's like asking Picasso not to paint, or asking Adam Sandler to stop making shitty movies.

    It's just what he does.

    Preseason and summer league stats say that Tierre Brown is the best kept secret in league history.

    I don't know why people put such ridiculous amounts of weight into preseason numbers.
