Thibs got to go. He can't coach an offense, can't adjust to another coaches defense. He sucks.

He cant coach man! He doesnt know the definition of situational coaching. His only strategy is to default to the starters when things start going even a little south.
Fire Thibs!

Bc it was a clear moving screen.

I didn’t see him moving and I watched the slow motion replay.

Because it was a blatant foul by KAT

Thibs supporters are thinning out. I don't know what the man is thinking. "Stick to the plan, stick to plan". Okay. Rough stretch, I get it, but c'mon now. At this point, he's beating himself.

For some reason thibs decided before the game that it had to be Bridges and refused to change no matter how the game played out. Everyone saw Cade wasn't scoring with OG on him. Just an ignoramus at his finest

coaching problem.

a team with OG, Mikal, and Hart shouldn't be this bad on the perimeter. Those are all known guys that can defend. They are taught to overhelp and protect the paint.

That was more on brunson going too fast but also dude just ran into kat to get the call. Kat was pretty much set the contact just looked hard so they called it. Was probably worth challenging.

Much needed loss Folksssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ON THE ROAD TO FIRING THIBSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


if there's anything to take from this, it's that the team is unlikely to let that same play happen to them again, especially Mikal

If a team can't have a stretch 5 then 2 athletic C's like Duren and Stewart make a good tandem
There goes my hero. Watch him as he goes.

I thought the Pistons plan down the stretch was smartly drawn up: Put Brunson on the action vs. Cunningham and see if they double him. Knicks did that, and got smoked by wide open 3s from MALIK. BEASLEY.

Brunson on D is below average, so having him defend a 6'6" dude with handles is trouble no matter what.

With a rim protector like Mitch they can stay home on the perimeter. Heck even Mitch can block threes

I didn't think coming into this season with KAT that perimeter D would be such an issue.

KAT is my guy but he didn’t have to put that extra forward motion force into the screen.

lol we weren't good at defending the perimeter last year with Mitch and Ihart...its not a rim protecting issue.
