I really do not understand why we let Tatum initiate offense late in these games. He slows the game way down, the offense loses all rythm, and everything falls apart.

How can nobody on the c's see this? Let Brogdon or White initiate offense, get Jaylen out of the corner.

Damn. I was worried with Murray out. We always let down

Smart didn't commit a foul on that dive and that tech on Tatum was absurd, but this is on Tatum. Pathetic leadership by him.

They outscored us 20-6, in the last 5 mins.
We took our foot off the gas, and tried to just coast.

Atlanta was Never out of this Game.

Brogdon and White really should close games at guard. White should never be off the floor in the final five minutes.

Ultimately though. Hats off to Trae Young. He showed out and played with heart. Take note JT.

Also. Don’t want to imagine what Steph would do to us(again).

Tatum is just one of those regular season Superstars.

I think he thought the game was done tbh


The lead got up to 13 with him in the game. Then they decided to slow the offense down again

Hence why I am blaming Mazzulla. Smart shouldn't close games.
Edit: Extend Mazzulla

JT got absolutely bitched by Trae Young on his own floor. Way to let another all star come into your building and outplay you in an elimination game. **** loser

The fact that it's still happening at all is why they aren't winning ****.



Same thing happened to the Bucks. It’s the playoffs.



And I bet you was laughing your ass off and not making excuses.

We will win this series but I have absolutely 0 faith in this team winning a title this year.

All year this team screamed to be a replica of the Brad coached teams and I think their season will also end like a Brad coached team, with a disappointing series loss to a an Eastern Conference team they should have beaten

Sad to say but I agree. Sorry, just so frustrated with this team.
