Man the box score just kept repeating "00:31.7 Instant Replay - Altercation Ruling" over and over.

Was kind of hoping both team's starting lineups got tossed so we didn't have to grind out the physicality of a back-to-back and we could see 20 minutes of Williams in the 2nd half.

Why? Have you not been watching the team this season?

Poor offensive basketball not much else to say.

Make or miss league and they're making and we're missing, simple as that.

Inexcusable on the free throw shooting.

Tatum is best as a 3.
Horford is better as a 4.

Hayward is best, on the 2nd unit.
'Til like the Playoffs.

Baynes is better Starting.
We should go with what worked last year.

We've done better defending that Gobert-someone PnR in the 2nd qtr. We just can't get our offense going. Pull Gobert out of the paint then drive, drive, drive.

They sure are making us work on D with their spacing and all their passing/movement.

All fades.to top of key for a 40 percent chance at 3. If he floated to an open 15 footer, I would say he hits that thing at 65 percent.

If we only shoot 3s, we end up missing so many shots that opens up daybreak and other runs.

Then, once u start chucking, u gotta keep in doing it to hopefully average out. I

It is a dumb and robs your team of versatility and makes us easy to guard. and we don't get to foul line when shooting 3s.

No one is shooting consistently well apart from Kyrie. We can say all we want about the offense (and tonight we had too many TO) but at the end of the day it all comes down to making shots. We make shots and it opens the lane for guys cutting and driving to the rim.

Honestly the threes aren't nearly as bad as the mid-range bricks.

Look at the Rockets last year. Only shot threes and layups. Offense was a complete buzzsaw.

Smart -26 in 30 minutes the last two nights. I’m ready for the Brad Wanamaker era.

Ben-N1ce · Post #292 » by **Ben-N1ce** » Sun Nov 18, 2018 1:45 am

If you combined Smart and Jaylen this year you'd be lucky to get an average bench player.

Crowned too soon.

Pathetic effort after he missed that fadeaway on their last offensive possession. He tends to sulk when he misses his shots. Not a good attitude.

65% from 15 feet lol. This team is shooting like 32% from mid range this year. That's hilarious.

Cause not taking right shots. They are taking contested 2s. 30 plus 3 pointers a night is insane.

We gotta attack and get.to the foul line.
