Ladies and gentleman: your coach of the year. Frank Vogel.

 

[MVP]

Dumb *** team man

 

[tupac003]

man **** wesley
ol Danny green 2.0 bum *** lol

The only reason I'm not pissed is he isn't making 15 million.

 

[pmatic]

What was that?

 

[tupac003]

Down 2... 25 second left on the clock...and Bron doesn't even touch the ball.

Losing Dennis just killed us.

 

[MVP]

at these OOB plays

I ain’t mad. That’s all Vogel. Mathews cannot make off the dribble 3s. They asked him to make an off the dribble 3. That’s the genius play Vogel set up

 

[frink85]

got my hopes up

 

[fearless]

GARBAGE

LeBron served all of them good looks all game and they missed.

 

[MVP]

Going to be in the 6 spot by the time AD gets back

You think #24 would’ve passed that to coruso? Trash *** Mf

 

[DLF]

Lol at least Caruso shoulda made sure he was behind the 3 point line lol.
I ain’t mad at that last play though. Good pass by Lebron. Good steal by Lebron and AC. Not expected AC to hit that 9 out of 10 times so it knew it wasn’t going in. All around bad offense. Bad coaching. Bad out of bounds plays.

True

to be fair. Lebron was playing HORRIBLE. He probably would have airballed it anyways

 

[tupac003]

45 3 point shots taken.....

 

[tupac003]

Need Dennis back...asap

 

[frink85]

nah Bron has two defenders directly in his face, he throws it up its damn near guaranteed brick. Caruso had an open shot and blew it

 

[pmatic]

45 3 point shots taken.....

With no AD and Schroder, this is the recipe to remain competitive. Just a matter of making them.

 

[DLF]

45 3 point shots taken.....

That’s the only way we were gonna score though

Lebron looked bad so he couldn’t be asked to drive in. No other ball handlers. Literally nobody else. Not Even THT. So only offense we can and should play is pick and roll and if they give us 3s we take them

They shoulda done that with25 seconds left. Pick and roll with Lebron early. If they double. Shoot open 3 by Mathews or kcp or Kuzma. If they Don’t double then switch and let Lebron drive in.

vogel gotta simplify the game when Shroeder and AD are out. But he won’t bc he is a ******* idiot

 

[doublemesh96]

i mean yeah that’s all true and valid but if you got that dog in you you’re rising up over 2 defenders for 3 to win

 

[frink85]

I'd be way more upset if he did that over the pass to Caruso

edit: of course if by miracle it goes in for the W, we're not having this conversation lol

 

[CP1708]

Down two starters, lose by 2. *Shrugs*

Land a buyout or two to upgrade Cook/Giannis bro and be healthy come playoff time and we're fine.

 

[MVP]

Little alarming how fast the offense has been in a downturn since the 1st month of the season. Like it is hard to watch. Gotta somehow tread water and get healthy.
