8 missed ft's, 3 from a 90% shooter.

Also AB is 1/14 from 3 in the last 3 games


It' called reverting to the mean. If you shoot way above your average, you are bound to drop back at some point. AB isn't a 46% 3 point shooter. RJ is a good FT shooter, but he's not 90%+.

You're the most overreacted guys ever. We played good ball, me made mistakes and referees didn't help. We're playing at some level we couldn't even think since 10 years ago.

we are a 46 to 48 w team, so we can deal with a 3L streak.

Poor last play with 5 seconds left with no Kennard on the floor...

Tobias' defense is killing us in that game, Drummond/Tolliver/Johnson/Bradley/Jackson should have finished the game with Kennard in for Bradley for the last shot.

Avery just had a horrid game. And Stan tried to let him play through it - which you have to do with your top guys. We still don't have anything from back-up center and are shallow at SF.

We're a 5-8 seed team in the East and were playing over our heads to start. I mean our shooting percentages were not going to be that high on the three ball, and our new offense was going to be scouted and game planned against.

Be nice to win this next game against the. Bucks and then hopefully split the next two between GS and Bos. Just a rough stretch here.

Sooooo Spurs were without this guy named Kawhi. And they beat us. If we had Kawhi instead of SJ how good would we be?

The level of a 4th/5th seed in the Eastern Conference? I agree.

Strong compared to a couple years ago, definitely. Of course, this has been a historically bad era for the east.
