Kenny's really gonna have to re-evaluate everything on this team. Since the all star break, we've been terrible. Honestly starting to feel like Kenny is losing the team. Has nothing to do with Xs and Os when you lose like this. This was a casual blowout.


Second night of a back to back after an overtime game. Why anyone would think we would come out anything but flat is kind of absurd. Especially against a young, fast, athletic team.

the idea that "kenny lost the team" or anything like that is also nonsense. and just highlights again how this board is just full of the most emotional, knee-jerk fans of any board on this forum but a longshot. The idea that this team is somehow different after the all-star break is also absurd. This team is playing the exact same basketball with the exact same high effort, with the exact same buy-in to the system and coaching. since the ASB:

-Overtime loss to philly
-Blowout win over the hornets
-2 point loss to orlando (lost on final possession)
-4 point loss to wiz (chance to tie on final possession)
-Blowout loss to the hawks
-3 point loss to miami (chance to tie/win on final possession)
-Overtime win over boston, huge comeback
-blowout loss to memphis

Since the break we have played 5 playoff teams. 4 of those were super tight, 2 went to overtime, and we beat boston. We had a blowout win over the hornets and loss to atlanta. and then the obvious loss on 2nd of a back to back with travel after an OT game.

yeah the atlanta loss in that fashion is inexcusable, but outside of that we have played extremely competitive against very good teams. The only real letdown is kyrie is hurt and we have no one we can count on to close those games out.

like did you expect us to go 5-0 vs. playoff team with no Kyrie?


This was the 2nd worst home loss in franchise history. That's not coming out flat. That's called not showing up AT ALL. Especially disappointing since the game before, our starters outside of LeVert got crushed and didn't play a second in crunch time.

You think I'm saying Kenny is losing the team as an attack on him or something. I'm not. I watch all the post game interviews. It gives you a decent idea of the mood of the team. I've heard Kenny say before this game, how he's tried to be positive, tried tough love, tried getting angry, etc. The guy is running out of ideas. The team is doing a bad job of competing this year. I don't care about the talent.
