    Two teams combined for only 10 FT attempts. Where's the physicality?

    it's just so easy to defend us whenever we have 2 non shooters on the floor, they just blitz the ball handler to get a steal and even if we make the first pass they have time to recover since you can guard both Amen and Alpi/Clint with just 1 guy.

    I know Ime has no offensive playbook but I don't think any coach could make this work effectively. This may work sometimes in the regular season but is a disaster waiting to happen come playoff time.

    Bari actually improved but still has issues. Yeah a lot of our guys just aren’t skilled at handling and getting to the paint. Spurs have multiple guys that can cross you up and get there. We have one

    It's just worse when they don't have any guards in the game... but yeah, it's institutional.

    Ime Udoka fundamentally does not know how to coach a basketball team when it comes to offense.

    STOP TRYING TO FORCEFEED a 37 year old STICK man who can't hold his position or get by his man.

    KD is killing this team - literally making us obvious and worse....he doesn't play D, he wants the ball where he can't do much and his passing stinks.

    Let him play off the ball go through others.

    reed needs to realize team know he's the best shooter on the team outside of dickerson so they're gonna pressure him every time he has the ball.

    now it's up to him to learn and adjust to the constant pressure defense.

    I'm giving them half of the 3rd quarter, they'll have to earn anything more than that

    Sengun doesn’t like the “baby Jokic” nickname?

    Then why were his meat riders using it so much?

    Fred will save us with playing 40+ minutes next season.

    Be patient.

    They can just leave our guys wide open for 3. Just wait for the rebound.

    Sengun has to know if you have bad reputation for playing aIr defense, you will be done In the league.
