These two LA games are the most realistically winnable games in terms of style of play.

crabbe wasn't missed. we needed a dominant rebounder and inside scoring.
I've heard that Julius Randle may be available this off season
Every single game thread he does that crap. It's annoying as hell. The constant disrespect for our players has gotten out of hand.

Re: GT: Nets @ Jazz 3/16/2019 9:00pm EST
Its hard to get upset when you know the Jazz and Thunder are just better teams than us.
But our schedule is so brutal we don't have the luxury of losing to teams were supposed to.
We basically have to beat the odds every game for the rest of the season. I don't know if its possible to do that.
Sucks that our schedule was so back loaded. Even finishing with 41 wins seems would be a miracle now.

im fine with this loss.
If you take away a handful of games (Denver, Mavs, and what's the other one? Can't recall right now) we have not had a good game since the All star break.
And you can probably extend that a few games before the break when we had to really gut things out vs lotto teams.

We blew out Detroit last week.
I know folks are disappointed but there is a lot of exaggerating going on here.

not dismissing it but I want them to make it since they put themselves here, if they lose, lose close, don't want to see them going backwards n back to blowout losses.
thought we're passed that?

Re: GT: Nets @ Jazz 3/16/2019 9:00pm EST
In our last 3 games. Against the Pistons they were built to exploit our weaknesses but we shot an ungodly high percentage of our outside jumpers and kept our foots on their neck.
Against the Thunder, we matched up well with them but in the end we ran out of gas and they simply outscored us.
Last night against the Jazz, our outside shots weren’t falling consistently and we had no other consistent scoring options besides our wings shooting and occasionally driving/slashing and when we drove Gorbert and Favor’s length altered shots and guys were missing. They were a bad matchup for us.
We actually matchup well with the Clippers since they don’t have the size. It’s all about us making our 3’s and getting inside driving either thru pick and roll with the occasional dump off to Allen. We’ll see.

Is it? If anything the three games we had were we absolutely on fire has masked what really has been a trend..this team isn't clicking...and its been that way for awhile now.MrDollarBills wrote:SpeedyG wrote:At the rate were going the playoffs isn't a lock.

We blew out Detroit last week.
I know folks are disappointed but there is a lot of exaggerating going on here.
Leading to the All star break we had a 3 game losing streak before we got hot vs Nuggets, followed by another almost 3 game losing streak saved by the 3OT game vs the Cavs. Everyone talked about how important to win that game vs the Cavs heading into the break.
Blown out of the gym by Blazers coming off the break. Played a bad game, didn't shoot well before Russell went bananas vs Hornets and then another hot game vs the reeling Spurs.
We then followed that with three straight lopsided games to lose another 3 games.
Then we got hot vs the Mavs and all is well in the world? Not quite.
Tough close wins vs Cavs and Hawks followed before again, another hot shooting game vs Detroit.
Then back to back awful performances to start our road trip.
This has been this team's trend for 19 games now.

Feels like we are destined to meet Toronto again.
