I tell you what, I've about had it with him. He's not getting the job done. Too much fouling on defense. Too many bobbled passes on offense. Can see why he's bounced around a bit now.

Yea the good news is we may be able to afford to re-sign him if he keeps playing like this.

Honestly, give me Kleber instead of Patterson.

Schroder and Adams have no chemistry.

It’s not an excuse at all. They’ve called 28 fouls in the first half. That’s more than 1 foul a minute. I wonder what league average is on that.

That's high. Point still stands.


I don’t see it as a blow out game and I’m not making excuses. We were rolling coming out. We were looking solid. And then fouls started coming left and right and they were bad. Like really bad. No one touched Powell on a shot at the rim, he missed, and they call a foul. Adams has been getting banged hard when he gets the ball and no foul. Felton keeps his hands straight up against a Barea jump shot. Nope, not good enough Felton. Foul. Adams comes out and puts his chest on Doncic, not using hands, foul.

Not only that, Dallas is defending the same way and refs are swallowing their whistles. So much that Donovan berated the refs for it and got a T. That almost never happens. Donovan never does that.

Thats making an excuse, and a poor one. I used to have a coach who told us "Excuses are for convicts". I very rarely will blame officiating, and in a 12 point game absolutely not. Against a team that's struggled lately.

Good shooters don’t brick the kind of looks Ferguson is getting

Mavs are 50%+ at the 3pt line but we are giving them way too many open shots

They’ll need a new roster outside of Doncic.

Am I blind or did Abrines not have his feet set against that Doncic transition drive?

Why does George think he can dribble?

Let's remove the 3 point line in the NBA and we could win a ring.

Wow. What a shot by Barea. What do we have to do to trade Felton for Barea.

Of course Barea makes that BS shot. He's averaging 7.7 PPG on 31% shooting this year, but tonight he has, like, 20 points on 138% shooting.

And he's single-handily thwarting our comeback attempts by leading Dallas' bench against our starters.

What is Felton’s 3P shooting on the year? He’s terrible.

The Thunder are 10th in 2pt shooting in the NBA. Toronto and GS are the top 2. There was a theoretical discussion about this late last season by ESPN and their conclusion was that it would actually just give GS a bigger advantage. The last few years GS has been better, compared to the rest of the league, at shooting 2pt shots than 3pt shots.

Time for a Schroder/Abrines/George/Patterson/Adams lineup to close the game out.

1-17, including tonight. He's not that bad, but he's not a great shooter. He's a career 33% 3pt shooter.
