We’re going back to having Rubio be a personal escort for Harden to the rim.

Somebody was in front of him. Everyone is supposed to clear out.

The defense cleaned up. Players are now trying to defend. But we are unable to catch passes or make wide open shots. First half is on Quin. Second half is on the players.

Side bet

No matter what Harden does no foul will be called against him until under 2:00 in the 4th

I am not convinced about the defense yet...the whole part where they want Rudy to wait longer before committing to defending Harden is freaking me the hell out.

This is playing out exactly the same as last year. No surprise.

They won’t need Harden, it’s already a 14 pt game.

Crowder is cold shooting tonight, and Korver has yet to shoot.

I suppose the fact that we are only down 10ish with our atrocious first half and our inability to score is a positive. I guess.

They still won’t call that 5th foul no matter what.

Well now theyr're down 20.

Disappointed in the coaching and the players tonight. The scheme is the first half was just terrible, but the players really didn't look ready for playoff intensity ball regardless of the coaching.

What does this look like with Mike Conley? Probably still lose, but that's the option we had.
In '03-'04, Jerry Sloan coached the ESPN predicted "worst team of all time" to 42-40.

Timid play/no aggression, sloppy passes, and butterfingers. Too much thinking, not enough instincts.
