    Don’t think it’s a secret that I negatively comment on this guy frequently.

    Tonight? Super clutch. Just started firing them, no hesitation. 4/4 3pt shooting.

    I have to give Gabe props for tonight’s showing. I heard Candace Parker’s 6/35 comment last 7 games, which is pretty atrocious, but hopefully this is a turning point for his shooting that continues against the c bags.

    We’re so much more dangerous if this guy can be a knockdown shooter/more consistent.

    He's got to be a key part in getting us titles (and become the worst player in the league when it comes to making layups) but there's some poor man's Fish in tonight's shots

    Agree with Luka, Gabe won us this game. His shooting finally got us over the hump when we kept getting with 6-8 points and then letting it blow back out to 10.

    Guys a pro, he’s always trying and his effort is high. I mean if he could hit the 3-ball at 40% consistently, he’d be a poor man’s Jrue and would be starting somewhere probably.

    Hipefully he hits a hot streak during the playoffs like he did for Miami in their last finals run.

    Yes Gabe won us this game. Probably won’t say that often, so I’ll give him his flowers tonight.

    That 3 that brought it to 94-93 was totally a Fisher shot, said the same thing when watching it live. Great bounce back offensive game from Gabe.

    I've always said this dude was Fisher. He really stepped up when things were tough.

    Like JG, Gabe did the damn thing tonight. Several big buckets. Thanks for competing tonight.

    For someone that gets “minutes” on this team, is there a more inconsistent guy than him?

    3/10 fg, 0/5 3fg, 6 pts, 1 reb, 1 ast…

    The inability to consistently hit wide open and I mean no one even close enough to even attempt a closeout is just brutal

    Those 3 missed in a row for 3 straight possessions was freaking rough

    This is hilariously accurate, I have no idea which Gabe is going to show up game to game. I think overall he’s had a good season and proved valuable, but I also don’t think he’s in our future plans

    Yeah, inconsistency as a backup is common. But at $11m... that's why I'm not against trading him for the right package this summer.

    I think it’s time to cut this guy some slack because he doesn’t shoot like that every night. Who does? But he’s done it numerous times now and hit a bunch of big shots and contributed a lot to several wins. Plus all his usual effort both sides of the ball. :rock:

    Still hate watching this guy. If he doesn't hit 3s just awful on offense: no penetration, no good passes, and guys just jump over him for offensive renounds

    What goes up must come down I suppose. Tough night for both him and DFS.
