PG OKC: Loss 

Post#1 » by MickeyDavis » Sat Apr 13, 2024 2:15 am

Meh. OKC is 32-8 at home. Very good team. Both teams full strength last month we whipped them.

Get this overly long regular season over already.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

Going to be our worst regular season since Bud turned us into a real franchise again.

Good to see Marjon back on the floor. He hasn't played in a month because of injury, and his only practice in that stretch was when he sprained his ankle.

TyTy is too slow for an NBA PG. Ryan Rollins is quick, but needs to develop PG skills.

The real question is how healthy was Marjon last week and in the first half. If he was injured, why would they put him in garbage time and not play him earlier?

Obviously garbage time, but Marjon looked pretty good. All the ignite guys are taking forever to develop, so maybe next year?

Was at the game and Dame looked pretty engaged on the bench, had the seat right next to the assistants.

Outside of that 2nd quarter and obv garbage time 4th, thought they played pretty well offensively. Desperately missed someone to run the offense and were super sloppy. Could’ve possibly stole it with Dame. We’d kill them in any real matchup with Giannis and Brook though. Like we saw before they have nothing for them.

Also, nice to see Beas have a pretty solid game for the first time in a few weeks.

Simple answer is he hasn't practiced.

Not sure how this can be reconciled with the often repeated statement everywhere that still it was “time to move on” from Bud.

Or, more accurately, vice versa.

It was time to move on. We just moved on in the worst possible way. We lept from the frying pan into the fire. We did all of the wrong things in the off-season. We could have made moves to take the next step, but every move we made was a step back. That does not mean it wasn't still time to move on. We just did it really, really badly.

This right here! Well said! It just seemed almost every move didn't work out the way we hoped!

There wasn't a good, experienced coach available. I'm more confident entering the playoffs than I would be without moves.

Could you imagine how hopeless and depressing the playoffs would be if Bud was still coach and Jrue was still out PG?

Now we enter knowing we've pummeled every good team we've played when healthy.
