One pass or screen shot. One pass or screen drive... Like we're not moving the D hardly at all. And we're barely beating the with speed what with rimmed out drives. USE OUR SETS.

Oh look. Julian drives and absolutely misses the entire basket. Yes maybe he got affected by the defender, but that hasn't always ben the case. Just find ways to **** finish guy. Or can we just set up guys at their bread and butter shots?

2ND Q: SPURS 46 BUCKS 65

Another Q another 30+ points given up.

We are over relying on our 'self-creation' and transition game but we're too long for the former and missing too much on the latter.

Gone is the off ball and ball movement. We have only 12 assists at the half shooting 35.7% overall and 38% from 3. That's right. We're shooting better from distance than from everywhere overall. *SIGH* Meanwhile we're giving up 48% overall and a scorching 50% from 3.

A lot of our drives to the rim are contested. We're not moving the D enough and we're getting caught.

We're also getting outrebounded 32-22, and a lot of these have been from bad positioning work, or lack thereof.

We DO have it within us to play better. We know because we've shown it, and against good teams, too, but we've gone away from our team-oriented O, away from our sets that best set up best players in their best spots. And we're paying the price.

I don't mind and see the benefit of going beyond one's comfort zone, stretching skills, but just not as a core gameplan. Too many one pass and screen and shot or drive, too poor recognition of not swinging it to weak side, too many wasted chance of like Julian driving versus three defenders with Wemby hands at the ready at the top of the arc.

We have the right tools and we know the right schemes but we're not doing either well.

Inefficiency results, and confidence wanes.

Box out. Rebound. RUN OUR SETS.

If Wemby would have blocked that pass instead of Bassey they would have been screaming. But poor Bassey doesnt even get a mention.

Champaigne brick early in the shot clock followed by him playing bull fighter defense for a Lillard 3. Sounds like pretty much every other game...

Missed most of the 3RD. Come back, we're down only 10, then we give up a 5-0 run.

Just before, Castle got blocked. Fell. We were down 5 on 4. Got lit up for another open 3.

3RD Q: SPURS 78 BUCKS 91

Apparently we were down at least 19 this Q. So decent comeback of sorts, though when teams lead they tend to wane at times. Anyway, we won this one 32-26. Got to the FT line more, amde 9-10 so far. Made more 3s, now stand at 15-37.

Dev and Castle mirroring each other on O in the worst ways. Hugely inefficient games for both. We are not that team that can afford this from two starters.

Weird two-Hobbit back court tandems.

We'll need a lot of hard work and some luck here...

We have Tre Keldon Julian Barnes Wemby. Not sure who the 2 is.

There's Keldon fighting for the O board. By himself.

You see how Milwaukee passes the ball around and people cut to the basket? There is no one (even Giannis or Lillard) trying to be a super hero taking crazy forced fall away shots. Totally opposite of us.

I'm trying not to be negative with every post but its hard. We are soo bad and soo poorly coached its frustrating.

Blake uses screen and drives right into a defender in the paint, head down, loses the ball hahaha it's like we've forgotten hpw to basketball at the most fundamental levels.
