Atlanta Hawks : 3 Improvements Danilo Gallinari must make
By Brice Lewis
Improvements for Atlanta Hawks forward Danilo Gallinari No. 3) Shot selection
Gallo despite all his veteran wisdom and great shot-making did have times where his shot selection was off. At times he would jack up shots and miss which was frustrating at times for Hawks fans.
Gallo had the green light from the coaching staff and was trusted, so sometimes that happens. Gallo has to be smarter about his shot selection because you always want to be efficient on every possession.
The other reason it was frustrating is because Gallo can get his own shot and hit them at a higher percentage than most. Sometimes he would shoot too many long balls when he could post up or get into his sweet spot in the mid-range if he was off.
He has a underrated offensive bag of moves and sometimes he would settle. So Gallo, especially if his minutes do end up getting cut, has to be smarter. This is the way that he can ensure that he gets enough court time.
Gallo still has meaning and importance to this Hawks team. He could come up huge for the Hawks again this season in different moments. So keep a eye on Gallo this season as he will fall under the radar with the amount of the talent the Hawks have.
