Can somebody who understands basketball better than me explain why we are leaving players wide open right under the rim?

Got to get a body in front of those bigs, you cannot give them any daylight. They are looking to dunk it every time they have space.

Seriously. The TNT guys said he may have lost the ball going up but to me it clearly looked like he was hit on his wrist.

He was definitely fouled.

We lost 6 points in the first half on transition dunks because Rudy got beat running back on defense badly, which is not typical on him.
Now we've given up 3 dunks because KAT doesn't seem to understand that he needs to pick up the big when Rudy blitzes the pick and roll. Get it together guys. Sick of our 90 million big man investment getting cooked in this series.

They’re giving Dallas’s bigs the benefit of the doubt. Crazy that your all NBA team player doesn’t get it.

I don't know who missed assignment in that last play Lively dunk? Did Gobert not suppose to help or Towns forgot to protect the middle. He was going to the corner.

We always have issues with big centers.

Especially in the not guarding them when right under the basket department.

game one Jaden McDaniels had horrible TO at the end of the game and it really cost them the game now game two 4 miss shots and D looks horrible. Great series with Suns but looking horrible and playing himself off the floor. I'd play the 3 bigs if JM can make a shot. Ried needs his time.

Put Naz in

Stone hands Rudy and panic chucking Ant.

Losing our composure badly.

Disgusting.

Come on Gobert, that is two bad plays in a row

younggunsmn · Post #93 » by **younggunsmn** » Sat May 25, 2024 2:10 am

We can weather the inevitable Luka hot streak if we aren't giving up easy baskets in the paint and taking dumb shots on offense.

Is Towns allergic to going right?

Bull call

What defense are we playing? Make a decision

KGdaBom · Post #97 » by **KGdaBom** » Sat May 25, 2024 2:13 am

We were up 18 about 3 minutes into the quarter. They've outscored us by 13 since. Come on guys. Take care of business the rest of the way.

How can we crap the bed collectively so easily?

NAW is unplayable right now. But no one on offense is playing well.

They’ve given Dallas life
