Even in HS ball you know it’s okay to take a couple dribbles out to create a passing lane. Usually creating a double is good offense, but right now throwing it down to Towns on the block vs a SF (Batum) is hurting us.

Yea his passing and vision needs to be better in those scenarios.

Showing no ability to score, this is crazy. 4 points all quarter, if we just could have scored 10 we would be up.

That on take where Ant got raked on the arm, clear foul. But most of these drives are just into a bunch of Clippers that are already there. Verticality and all.

Our problem is we’re running horrible offense. Ant one on one is bad offense. He struggles to finish when there is size at the rim.

29-8 free throw disparity against the magic

18-5 tonight against the Clippers.

Inability to get free throws is death. That has to change going forward.

We are relying way too much in jumpers. I also think finding a big body will help take a lot of pressure off Towns who is getting abused by any team with size.

This team is ass if chucking 3's aren't working. It's like they have no other ability but that specific skill. It really is unbelievable. I've never seen such a team suck in such a way. How unique.

Maybe we shouldn’t double up our opponents to on 3s if we want to get to the stripe?

Who is he going to pass it to out of the double? Our guys just stand around. Nobody cuts to the basket.
