We just might be the worst playmaking team in the league. Fred only looks out for himself and Precious doesn’t look up. Not a pleasant team to watch in the half court, Blanton and Barnes are the only ones that look for the pass.

FVV not good running the offense
Trent is tunnel vision
Precious is terrible at reads

I don’t understand why those three are running the offense.

Give the ball to your best playmakers OG and Barnes

Anyone else frustrated as me?

Previous not giving much. Poor box outs, getting easily beat, out of position a lot. He’s been kind of disappointing since his 15/15 game.

It's like the team is trying to conserve energy for tomorrow's game.
Nick Nurse recounting his first meeting with Kawhi:
“We could have gone forever. (Raptors management) kept knocking on the door and I was like, ‘A couple more minutes.’ Because we were really into it."

Fvv cannot do anything against this defense

Take the ball out of his hands again plz

Good to see Suggs breaking out of funk

Hopefully Barnes and Raps finish the job. we should win this easily

Yep, that's a big issue. No flow at all, just a lot of one-on-one play.

Would like to see ADOBE get a bit more assertive on the offensive side here...

Precious is playing with great hustle as usual but he’s forging the game a bit. Needs to settle down a bit!

The pass to Scottie for the long 2 he missed recently was bad too, late and then didn't hit Scottie in his shooting pocket sigh

It’s not that he’s making mistakes, it’s that hes not trying for long stretches


Oh, didn't realize you were on the floor playing as well. :lol: :lol: :lol:

I dont think hes not trying. He always tries to make up for his mistakes. But he loses focus and ends up late on plays, doesnt have great...whats the word? Anticipation.

precious just doesnt work hard enough, he sticks out like a sore thumb on the defensive end. im tired of complaining about him this game but man he makes it difficult to stop. im sure he will be fine but it doesnt look good this game at all
