With the game nearly over, the key stat is:

OKC 32x 3Pta @ 44%

POR 44x 3Pta @ 23%.

This team's obsession with 3Pt shots is absolutely illogical given that we aren't a good 3Pt shooting team. It makes zero sense.

And for those who say "let the young guys shoot and learn from their mistakes", I tremendously disagree. I'm ok for Clingan, Sharpe etc to take a few attempts each game, sure. But we shouldn't be seeing so many 1/6, 1/8, 2/9 etc 3Pt lines that we've seen all season. It'll only help influence a chucker attitude imo. We've seen it with Shaedon.

I don't care if it's open - if you're open for a reason (e.g. Sharpe or Clingan), perhaps take that as a sign.....

Yeah man Jerami can shoot and Deni gets a pass even though he didnt hit many, hes capable enough. Otoh Guys like Yang (1-6), love (1-8), heck even though he made 2 Clingan taking 4 I hate seeing those stat lines

I keep waiting for this team to fall apart with the injuries but it feels like they keep bouncing back even after losses like this. Will be interesting to see how the season unfolds id imagine games will be competitive but itll be hard to stay close in games with basically a 6 man rotation and a bunch of 2 way guys.

If things are gonna stay this way id hope we strategically pull the plug starting the ASG and beyond. Perhaps Dundon can get that ball rolling so we dont screw ourselves out of our best shot at a franchise player we might have in the next decade

Hahaha, it was going to be a loss with or without Clingan.

It's more like a 4 man rotation (Clingan, Avdija, Camara, and Grant). The 5th starter is a 2-way player. Maybe Murray counts, but no one else is or should be a rotational player.
