It's a complete choke job. That's really It.

Suggs is just miscast in his role.... He has too much on his plate, he has to be a ball hawk defender... Stretch the floor effectively and now he has to try and set the table for the team... We need a real lead guard

Stick to bad Paolo takes.

Put the fries in the bag.


Suggs was open on most those shots. He just wasn't knocking them down

It shouldn’t be that hard to score on Cam Payne for Franz. Franz looks rattled and sped up.

Maybe the fact I can't watch is a blessing, I would be fuming right now.... Whatever.... Thought we would hold a better account of ourselves in a pressure game but.... Hopefully we can still get the wildcard

Goga, Gary and Paolo are out and people are struggling. Someone has to pick it up.

Jesus I hate sets like that... offense stalls no cutting/secondary action or anything. Franz just forces a tough shot.

Refs rattled us and we suck in high pressure situations (see Game 7 last year). Oh well. GG.

If we just had Goga, I think we would win. It's a big change for us, and Wendell isn't good right now

Goga would have helped but no... this is more than just Goga being out.
We were in a groove with Goga playing.

Yeah, noticing that too. Big deficit, defense isn't showing up, and no offense outside of Franz. It's not good

That is the time when we need Paolo. So that debate is over. Paolo would make us better :lol:
