Home Struggles 

Post#1 » by JDR720 » Sun Feb 13, 2022 3:03 am

Our last several home games.

Grizz - 125 - 118
Bulls - 121 - 109
Raps - 116 - 101
Heat - 104 - 86
Cavs - 102 - 101
Clippers - 115 - 90

All loses. Our last win? Against the Lakers, in which we tried our best to lose too. Before that game we got blownout by the Hawks. We also lost to Orlando at home.

Our only 2 home wins since we beat the Bucks twice in a row are against the Lakers and OKC.

This is a pattern and very concerning. Do the players hang out at the club before every home game or something? We don't just lose either, we get smacked.

Why have we been struggling at home so much?

Considering 5 maybe even all of those teams are better than us i don't think playing at home is the concerning thing. They're just better and missing Hayward doesn't help.

that's a tough stretch of games. Even when we were playing well, I wouldn't have expected more than 2-3 wins there. Factor in our 3s escaping us and Hayward going down, losing all of them is not that big of a shock

Not just Hayward, we've been missing Jalen the whole time and he can be another source of offense.

I'll take the blame for this. I went to that Clippers game and it's been downhill ever since.
