I don't even know how this game isn't over yet. We should be down 20+

Dennis can’t even make a basic entry pass to Morris.

I hope this is the Morris we can get consistently.

Great night for the PF position (Grant/morris). Rest was garbage

Russ shot still looks off but his speed doesn’t.

IMO, the lack of basketball IQ is a bigger issue for this team than the lack of shooters.
I can't count the number of times this OKC team has shot themselves out of close games by taking foolish, quick 3 pointers or other stupid shots. The bad shot selection is then compounded by the lack of ball movement. Way too much standing and watching the guy with the ball.

Because he's an inferior coach who struggles to manage the rhythm and flow of players and the game.

Well the highest paid player and leader who is shooting 27% has shot 9 of them.

Ahhhh, another loss. And we've got a back-to-back coming Saturday and Sunday.
This skid is coming at a horrible time and it all started with that really bad loss to the mess of a Pelicans right before the All-Star break.

the fact that Billy won't put Nerlens in for Schroder on that defensive possession shows that he doesn't have any control over the players OR he really is one of the very worst coaches I've ever seen when it comes to lineups, rotations, and matchup decision making

I hate when he hits a one or two early in the game because then he thinks he's feeling it, so you can expect him to throw up at least 8 on the night.
No self-awareness.
If only he were more like Ben Simmons in that regard.
