Was at the game today, and this is what I saw re: Neo's shot...

when he rises straight up, his shot is pretty true. But often, on his stepback 3's, he is not only doing the stepback, he's also slightly fading away when he releases. Hopefully he can build on today's momentum, and part of that will be to lean into his outside shot rather than shooting off the back foot.

@Chris Coleman Neo played so much faster, got open without the ball

Talk about fast. The length of the court pass to Hansberry was a bullet. **

That was a great pass and a great catch by Hansberry. **

If only Drones hit in stride like that. **

@David Cunningham - interested in your thoughts on this question

Honestly, I think it's just him being more attack-minded.
David CunninghamAdmin 02/21/26 03:25 PM ET
I agree. He wasn't hesitant. He was decisive. **

I think he’s getting healthier. In previous games, his shot seemed flat.
