Did Grant Williams intentionally not hit the iron or did he miss accidentally on that intentional miss

We deserved to lose.

Bad loss. This was a near G League team we played tonight bar George.

Our basketball IQ was pretty bad late.

Also what the hell was Martin thinking throwing the ball to Grant right under the basket with 2.1 seconds left. Just a lack of awareness. You gotta throw the ball down the court in that situation.

If we could inbound a ball we’d have had a timeout still. The out of timeout plays are atrocious and LaMelo hitting superstar shots isn’t gonna cover that up every time

This teams way too shallow offensively without Miles for Tre to take a night off

Man wish we would have hired Redick. I really think he would have unlocked Miller to another level. This offense Lee runs is really a bad fit for him.

I will root for Lee to figure it out but I’m really not feeling it

We 3pt heavy for sure. Would love to see some easier baskets near the basket.

At the same time, Miller had a wide open 3 for the win. We easily win if we shoot better. Despite the atrocious offense. Counted 7 or so wide open 3's we missed when flipping back and forth.

Cant believe we let Jared Mccain go off like that. I knew he'd be a good pro coming out of Duke but holy ****.

Tre Mann has been pretty pedestrian lately. Great iso player though.

Passing the ball would be a starter. Especially since he can take most anyone he wants off the dribble.

the team seems to sit still and watch the person with the ball half the time, if they moved to get open or where they can get a decent shot off, it might make things easier.

Missed the game. Got high instead.

The box score seared my eyeballs. So, I'm hoping someone can share some of the good things you saw on the court that perhaps escaped the box.

How did Salaun look? Overmatched?

He will learn. So learning will lend value to his ability to send even the best defenders sprawling and using much time and space to brace their ankles before taking their next forward step on the ice. If defenders are going to space out to LaMelo & Miller (and believe me, they are garnering attention way out there to the logo), you can't double team Mann in isolation and your lone defender is left stranded on an island.

The trio needs more time to learn to play together but the coaches see it. Mann is definitely humble and coachable. We finally have a hungry dog competitor. He needs to eat.
