Can't wait to hear people talk about foul totals as if the game was evenly officiated.

We just need to rest KD and hope Harden is available for G5. Refs aren't letting us get this one and KD is gonna get hurt at this rate.

Harris passing up good looks all game. If his confidence is shot then he’s of no asset to being on the floor.

Credit to KD for keeping us close, but this isn't sustainable. Hope I'm wrong, but there had to be some way of finding at least 2 minutes in that quarter for him to rest.

Just keep fighting, we’re still not out of it.


Yep. To be down 12 after all of this is a miracle.

It’s the playoffs and KD is a superstar, play him big minutes, I don’t give a ****. We don’t have Kyrie or Harden either. This is what KD is here for.

As for the officiating, I hate how Giannis got away with that flagrant on Kyrie, but this is how it goes when you have a reputation for being soft going up against a team that has a reputation for being physical. You won’t get the same calls.

Yeah I agree. No point in saving his mins as we can easily lose this series now. Pus he got plenty of rest Game 2 and had an extra day of rest before Game 3.

He’s needlessly bringing up the ball and getting guarded 94ft and then getting double and triple-teamed when he gets within the arc.


The idea that Nash isn't compounding our problems is laughable. He has stood at the side line slack jawed. The offense is basically run KD into the ground 94 feet


Prokorov is mostly wrong to the point if u bet against anything he says u could be a millionaire, one thing he was 100% rigth since day one is about Nash , he gonna cost us a championship

Did Claxton not get hit there? Or is he able to magically shift his body horizontally in mid-air?

No one is asking the other options to be KD or Kyrie.

We should expect the coaching staff to remind them that we have sets we can run through while mixing in KD ISOs. We’re not running through anything hard. We’re just not doing anything. Milwaukee isn’t playing tremendously well, we’re just playing like absolute crap.
That's easier said than done. The only hope we had in this game coming out in the 2nd half was to get KD going. You can run sets for the other guys on the team but none of them are reliable and (predictably) missed the shots that they did take.

Of course it’s easier said than done. My problem isn’t that we’re doing it and failing. My problem is that we’re not doing anything (or at least anything sensible).

I get hoping that KD can give you a 2-3 min 10pt spark, but that cannot be the game plan for an entire half when Milwaukee is defending him this way.

If you want to give KD the best opportunities to score, take away all other needless responsibilities from him and have others do it so he can conserve energy and focus on scoring.

He shouldn’t be handling the ball before the half court line.

He should be receiving way more screens off the wing, so he can take open 3s or pass to the roll man rather than try to score over 2-3 players every time down the court.

I’m not saying that we should be winning, but I wholeheartedly believe that we could be playing much smarter. That’s on Nash IMO.

Nash should challenge that. We need something to swing the momentum.
