1. Can't have the guy you went all-in on sitting on the bench in the 4th due to bad play. That's just shocking and I have no idea who to blame for that.
2. As mentioned above there needs to be a pecking order and more structured offensive sets. I get the idea behind a free flowing offence and in the right hands it would be potent but this is a team filled with single digit IQ morons. You simply can't run that sort of crap.
3. DLo has fallen back to earth, which we all should have expected. He was never going to shoot 60%+ from 3 all season and without that falling.
4. It's fair to point out we're missing a number of guys. Our bench is decimated and our starters are missing their most consistent and arguably best scorer in Towns. That doesn't excuse the loss but it does deserve to be mentioned.
5. Nowell doesn't deserve any minutes, nor does Forbes. There is no reason at this point to play either over Moore. At least if he sucks you're either developing him or realising you need to move on from him. The other two have no real future here.
6. The thing that pisses me off about the Gobert trade is not that they wanted to make a deal (last year's team had a serious cap on it, anyone thinking otherwise is delusional) it's that they did it specifically to address Towns' issues. KAT should not have factored into a decision like this whatsoever, the only concern moving forward should have always been Edwards. And yet here we are, again, hitching our wagon to a one way big that really isn't as special as people try to make him out to be.
I expect, at best, we're in the play-ins. Whether we make it past that is anyone's guess.
I expect they'll point to injuries to explain why we disappointed this year.
I expect minor moves in the offseason that address few, if any, of the issues.
I expect next year will largely be the same.
I hope that will lead to KAT demanding a trade.
I expect that will lead to Gobert wanting out.
I expect, assuming we don't get reamed in those trades, that we'll be a better team when they're gone.
Bro I couldn't agree more with this. a lot of us have been saying it but I'm glad people are still pointing this out. It just takes a little common sense to see these things. After all the talk of Dlo and Towns being best friends and not trading Dlo becasue of that reason has always bothered me. where are their buddy pictures of them together? I doubt towns wants him around his girl because he'd look lame in comparison. but we trade away Ants support system..wth?
Was Finch sending a message to Rudy in the 4th? if Rudy didnt have to come in for the rebound that he ddint grab would Naz have played the whole 4th?
Oh yeah. F**K Kahnellys feelings. why are we the only team that has to take years of bs product because the new hire wants to come in and prove themselves? Just fire the c**t, he shouldn't be able to try and clean up a mess that is shown to not be repairable with time. I can understand the pay and contract factor, but this guy should not be making anymore moves for the business's sake. If he actually worked for Lore he would have fired him by now.
Can't fire him he has equity in the team remember?
