It is, when you play dudes who are 6 feet to 6'5 against a a standard NBA roster and that roster realizes that you can't deal with them.
I'll give Udoka 30 games, but I don't like the defense or the offense, tbh.
Good assessment:

Brad's initial run with the Cs was great.
Last 2 years weren't that good, cause players seemed to ignore him.

give toronto credit. we have our whole team healthy. they have no siakam. they're playing on the road and they're up by 4 at half.
i think we're gonna win, though.
they can't play much better than they did in 1st half.
we can play much better than we did.
that being said, i wouldn't be surprised if this is another wild one that goes down to the wire.
I'm hoping that we really start clicking, brown and tatum both get hot and we end up winning by double digits.

I give him a pass for now. Love the ball movement and discipline.

I liked AL, Rob, Tatum, Schroder, and Romeo was okay, too. That small lineup got destroyed. Ime has got to be better. Really like how Schroder can beat his guy and get into the paint, which Smart simply can't do. We should win going away.

Same old offense
Stand around and shoot 3s until everyone is off and then drive once or twice…then back to shooting threes…. This isn’t even a high-school offense.
Ime doesn’t have a clue,

at some point someone needs to do some new exciting halftime stuff. that lady is good and all, not hating, but i'm a lil tired of the same ol same ol. I'm even tired of the tramp dunking. the guy that does the quick change outfits is a genius, still a bit stale.

At the game. Can confirm the highlights were Pierce during intros and the crazy flip woman at halftime. Let’s hope we rebound in the second half.

Nesmith got a DNP and I feel like one of Pritchard or Dennis have to get the same.. We need to go bigger. Juancho or Kanter have to play.

The perfect PG for this team is Malcolm Brogdon.
Maybe if the Pacers keep losing, they'll make him available.

God bless Grant but this is the 2nd game in a row when he has come out and been abused due to his lack of height and wingspan. Ime really needs to make another choice out there, whether it's Jabari or Hernangomez and this feels stubborn right now.
and that's "MR. Irrelevant" to you!!

I love it how these guys can shoot for ****, and we're letting them get to the basket non stop, just to make it easy on them. That's how you know this team is full of nice guys.
