swiss cheese D now

Winning at halftime against the team with the second best record, on the road, on the second night of a back to back. Some people just can never enjoy a god damn thing.

We're only in this because C.J. and Dame have hit like 90% of their contested shots. We're dropping the big against Paul, aren't getting high quality shots against the trap, switching into mismatches, and look clueless rotating on defense.

 

[Labinot41]

Great game

 

[Labinot41]

Nurkic cost us the game

Coaches see things to improve on even when ahead. Notices trends....

Then there's stotts. "Gee golly, we have the lead. Let's do all the same things."

 

[B-Roy]

Play Rondae at center for Nurk. Holy shit

 

[Jayblaze]

Take Nurk bum ass out of the game

 

[BlazerBeav]

So your argument is we are only in it because our stars are playing like stars? This is the NBA, right?

 

[James lamphear]

Right now we just making to many mistake and unforced turnovers right now.

 

[crandc]

I think we are going to need Dame time.

 

[illmatic99]

Could someone other than Dame and CJ hit a shot?

norm had 7 of the first 9 points for us in this quarter

 

[PCmor7]

Too much 1-on-1 hero ball iso crap that I'd hoped we'd flushed out of our system in the last 3 minutes.

STOP PLAYING SELFISH AND STUPID.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Man cp3 loves playing us

 

[Strenuus]

Nurk what the actual hell are you doing

 

[wizenheimer]

1st game in about 3 weeks that Dame has looked a little tired

 

[Cugel]

Turnovers man. Need a fresh body in there terry!

 

[OneSport3]

They look exhausted.

The Melo effect has infected the team.

lol what?

 

[EGame]

This is just what our team does. Puts themselves in a playoff hole and then the last few weeks of the season put all there effort and energy into ensuring we get in the playoffs, then look dead in the first round

 

[blazedanugz]

Everyone’s acting like this isn’t a great game.

We’re gonna win too

 

[Strenuus]

Seriously. Its like they procrastinate on the midterm, do it all the night before, then flame out by the final test.

 

[BonesJones]

Payne gets a layup out of the timeout because we subbed in Kanter and continue to drop him...

 

[Cugel]

Stotts should have went with djj or rhj not ek

 

[Strenuus]

Stotts should have went with djj or rhj not ek

Lol you're asking stotts to understand in game adjustments.

 

[Strenuus]

Man Phoenix takes some stupid shots.

 

[BonesJones]

Are any of my critiques wrong?

 

[Labinot41]

Yeah this is a loss

 

[Strenuus]

Covington with 4.

 

[Labinot41]

So we gonna play the Clippers in the 1st round, damn
