nah man.Man, 5 damn pages, I thought maybe we had made a trade or someone was hurt or somethin.
I'm really at a loss for why folks are upside down right now. We played a gimmick team with a new personnel from the team we beat 2 weeks ago. We didn't have the practice time to prep for them, and with 4 minutes left in the game we had the lead and the ball.
Bron didn't close out wisely, but let's face it, he's also stolen some games we could have lost, so it evens out.
We have a 3 game lead, we need to make sure we buckle down and get homecourt and we'll be ok.
You guys gotta friggin relax. We could still add DC, we could still add another wing, and if we can lock down HC, then that means we limit travel and give Bron/AD the most amount of rest possible. Losing one freak game doesn't change that. If we played Houston for two weeks straight, Bron/AD/Vogel etc would make the adjustments they'd need to make. (namely fewer 3's) and would punish the Rockets over time with their size.
All this said, it does feel a bit like the old days when some of y'all would run thru the streets panicking like crazy with Kobe in his prime, Pau, Bynum, Odom, Fisher, Ariza, Phil ****ing Jackson, and we lose a game to the Bobcats. "THIS IS IT, IT'S OVER, WE'RE DOOMED, WE SUCK, BAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH......"
Re-lax.
they can't beat the top teams in the league-this team is not going far in the playoffs.
that kobe/gasol team had a real closer and a real coach. cant compare that team over this one.

So we're gonna kill the third year player trying to find his role in the offense and fire him up.... but we're gonna overlook Lebron AGAIN deciding to not attack the basket and instead make ridiculous passes & stepback threes when it matters?
This **** is becoming a pattern now at the end of the games & it has nothing to do with his age or being tired. this is the **** i've been talking about his whole career, there's no ****ing reason in year 15 i have to wonder if one of the greatest ball players of all time is gonna decide to be aggressive when the games on the line.
I wouldn't even mind if he's having an off night & just missing but goddamn make the attempt. It seems like in every close game we lost against better comp, Lebron is holding the ball and making terrible forced passes, or dribbling the rock til the final seconds & bricking a step back 3.
they Also don't run NEARLY enough pick & roll with AD, We get him the ball with 10 seconds on the clock & then he ends up taking some off balance turnaround in the post.
These are bad habits their picking up thankfully they could be fixed, but we had no business losing that game yesterday. Especially with PJ playing with 5 fouls.
not overlooking Lebron playing lazy in the last 4 minutes. I’m just saying he’s not the reason we lost. The game was lost in the Rondo/kuz minutes so they deserve to get flamed for that loss. They were both -14 in 33 minutes combined. That’s impressively terrible. If RoCo doesn’t make those threes we still probably win the game. The problem is when Lebron sits, we have no offensive game plan and any lead we have always dwindles.
a basketball game is 48 minutes. We shouldn’t only focus on the last 4 minutes. The first 44 minutes are important too.
honestly the one who should catch heat for last night is AD. Too many fade aways in the paint late. Not posting up deep enough against smaller defenders. I know he was getting hacked all game but that was 100% a game where he should’ve easily dropped 40-50. idk why he wants to shoot fadeaways like he’s jokic or something. I wanna give AD a break though because he has to deal with Rondo as his point guard for extended times.

so you aren't concerned about our play against elite teams/contenders?Man, 5 damn pages, I thought maybe we had made a trade or someone was hurt or somethin.

Thread in shambles.
Yesterday was literally in the balance with 3 minutes to go and rockets hit 3 3s.
Lebron gassed and stops driving with no rim protection.
AD gassed played whole 3rd and came back with 9 to go.
They played into the hands of ****** ball by settling for jump shots and our team has no consistent shooter.
Give credit to Covington who was the Xfactor this game.
I pretty much defended Kuz since I got his jersey.
But he's pretty much dead weight now.
Low IQ, sometimes looks loss on offense and doesn't take high percentage shots.
Looking like derelicte DeRozan with his shot selection.
Rondo should never shoot the ball outside of a layup.
Sasha needs to walk through that door, Gordon giricek jr, pejas corpse, sign some European shooter...

Hopefully DC doesn't BS us man. I would hate to miss on other candidates because he draws it out...ala Kawhi.

Waive Daniels cousins for now imo. Cook right behind them, but as Drewsome has mentioned before, cook is ADs DP’ing Jeanie Buss buddy So maybe not. Get Williams. Hopefully get collison. And I’d take a chance on JR smith on a Dwight Howard like deal. He was clutch in that 3-1 finals on Cavs

Sign DC & Marvin Williams and we’ll be fine.
Troy Daniels most likely will be the casualty even though I feel he’s better than Cook.
