Starting to think there is an undisclosed injury and minute restriction we don't know about.

Its a bit disturbing. I think the coach doesnt know how to play him...when to put him in or sit him.

I just think he wants Otto to be more aggressive. Moving more without the ball. Doing the little things on both ends. Not just shooting more though he's not shooting well this year. Usually he gets in transition more so maybe he's not 100%.

We need Dwight Howard to get back to playing 30 minutes so Kieff doesn't have to play backup 5. If Jeff Green could ever play with any consistency (doubt it), Kieff would only play about 20-25mpg.

THing is, Kieff is dooing just fine with what the Kings are throwing at him. He doesnt need to spice things up. He is getting the points, rebounds, shooting well, and playing good D. Its uncalled for.
He needs to play smarter.

Agree that Otto should be doing that, and I thought he was doing that early in the game, but the ball was not coming his way. Then he got sat on the bench. I dont think he played any differently after he got back on the court.

The minute distribution and personnel decisions are completely asinine. Brooks is a total joke of a coach

This team has missed so many open looks. I don't want to hear shi-t about ISO ball when we are missing a million open 3s.

I give Beal props for trying to play but he's killing this team on offense right now. I wish there were better options.

Brooks... that timeout should have come after the second wide open three to remind those guys to close out on those shooters.

Instead we let them rattle off a 12-0 run.

So they hide Fox on Porter...do we attack that match up, run a wall/porter pick n roll? Nope. Do we post up Porter? Of course not.

I’m missing out on refreshing 538 every 90 seconds for this?

On a previous play, Beal is standing unguarded at the 3 pt line, and Wall shoots a contested long 2 ptr and misses. I get Beal is cold, but still....

Hopefully Morris will recognize that Bjelica is a pretty good shooter.

Embarrassing 3-point shooting display by the Wiz. Must be last in shooting %. Now 7 of 29 (24.1%) in this game.

Beal’s really hurting us right now

80sballboy · Post #55 » by **80sballboy** » Sat Oct 27, 2018 3:41 am

Beal 1-8, Wall 0-4, Morris 0-4, Porter 1-4 from 3-pt. Oubre and Rivers a combined 5 of 8 of course.

Wall...name a worse shooting allstar point guard not named rondo or Kidd (young ason Kidd)?

All-around display really. The offense is a joke, our worst three point shooter still jacking up shots from deep like he’s steph curry. Beal settling for long 2s. And the defense..gives up 3 straight corner 3, lucky the kings are not good

Well, our shooter (Beal) is cold, Morris and Wall are forcing it and missing, Porter is MIA, and Mahinmi is running back and forth.
This offense is just not working. Yet, we are only down by 3.

Kieff about to get thrown out.

Bob Cousy. Look at his shooting numbers. But sure, modern day, can't think of one other than those two, who also were/are very good defensively. Yet, John has 19 points and leads the team in scoring and has 5 assists, which should be at least 10 if guys can make open shots.
