The Bucks staying cold from outside would help as well.

Our defense on the perimeter was decent, for the most part.

If Nurk showed up with anything at all beyond his passing and Melo recognized his outside shot wasn't falling and adjusted, this game probably would be back and forth. But neither of those things happened or changed at halftime.

I'm getting more than a little impatient with Nurk showing up and playing saaawwft. This guy is such a head case anymore and we need him to be more consistent.

Hopefully Olshey is taking notes from Horst on building a team with all-star length and versatility.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

I'm not sure if we're going to get free chicken McNuggies.

2022

Dame/Simons
Powell/Simons
Nas/DJJ
RoCo/Collins
Nurk/?

So they traded CJ for no one?

Because Stotts thinks that holding players accountable is a catchphrase and he doesn’t have the balls to catchphrase Melo.

 

[MickZagger]

Never mind we’re losing this shit

 

[PHXBlazer1]

OK get Melo the fuck outta there

 

[B-Roy]

Please sit Melo on the bench forever

 

[DDolla]

Don’t worry guys...even that we’re not a great team, we will win the next game.

 

[Tince]

Gee, maybe don’t play the bad defenders as much?

I guess we could bench our best player, but I don't like that strategy.

 

[julius]

I love how they're using injuries as an excuse still.

 

[MadeFromDust]

This is what happens when all your offense consists of is launching threes. Some nights they just don't go in.

 

[illmatic99]

melo shooting THAT shot while down 20 and having gone 0-8 prior is grounds for terry getting fired.

how the fuck is his ass not glued to the bench right now

 

[TBpup]

Melo decided hitting the rim was too close and goes with the airball.

 

[Serbian]

I want melo cut!!!

 

[Cugel]

Nice bench!

 

[MickZagger]

Holiday is one of the most active pests I’ve seen in the league in a long time

 

[illmatic99]

terry has taken 0 timeouts this quarter during their run

no adjustments
no teaching
nothing

can his ass tonight. fucking moron

 

[B-Roy]

It’s crazy that Jones can’t get off the bench because of Ant and Melo

 

[PHXBlazer1]

33% shooting aint quite gonna cut it guys

 

[trailblazer18]

0 field goals from the bench..hahahaha

 

[Serbian]

terry has taken 0 timeouts this quarter during their run

Sounds like stotts normality

 

[TBpup]

So when some of us questioned the Blazers squeaking by garbage/depleted teams because of HOW they were playing versus that they were winning, this is exactly what was being referred to.

 

[MickZagger]

I guess we could bench our best player, but I don't like that strategy.

He’s gasping for air. His legs look heavy from trying to get those hero 3’s up

 

[James lamphear]

Pretty embarrassing quarter right there Dame don't need to come back in this game. Chalked up for loss rest players for tomorrow night.

 

[wizenheimer]

 

[PCmor7]

Really disappointing. I felt we rode out the storm and would be ready to come out and play in the second half.

I mentioned above Nurk and Melo not showing up to play tonight. Stotts has to have a better handle on these guys. If Nurk's not in it mentally, take him out. If Melo's not making shots, take him out. Because both those guys when they're in their heads like that really kill their own team.

 

[MadeFromDust]

Team is not ready for primetime. For the 2nd time in 3 games we get laughed off of our home floor by a semi-decent team.
