Incompetence Beyond the Arc 

Post#8 » by Ranma » Sun Dec 9, 2018 5:37 am

Good grief. The Clippers are 6-25 (24%) from 3-point range while the Heat are 11-31 (35.5%). That's the difference in this game. Beverley is 1-4. Scott is 1-7. Gallo is 1-3. Tobias is 2-7.

Don't Know If It's Rigged, But It's There

This will now be 0-3 in games where a player/coach is ejected from a game. Thanks to tonight, Clippers are now the league leaders in ejections.

Regarding the referee issue, I feel like there's an agenda to get the Warriors back in 1st place in the west. They will now tie the Nuggets for 1st in west (GSW are 18-9).

Fun start to the season, but yeah, this team is coming back down to Earth now based on these last few games.

This is pretty pathetic. No one knew what to do with the ball against this random hybrid zone defense or whatever the hell Miami was doing.

Lou acting like a GIZMO lol. Doc and yet again his dumbass 4th quarter rotations. Harrell played a full quarter again. Doc is a trash coach

Proof in the Pudding

Doc's predictability is likely why we won't win anything of substance in the postseason. Opposing teams can gameplan for his predictable habitual sets and rotations. He's an excellent designer of plays out of timeouts, but he needs superstar players to work their dominance and adjust to whatever comes at them with their free-form ability to create on the fly.

Again, that is why he's only won with a stacked team in Boston with Thibodeau as his defensive coach and yet he'll get the chance to prove what he can't do once we get star free agents. Squandering two 3-1 series leads in the postseason and consistently blowing 20-point leads and coming out flat in the 3rd quarter with regularity doesn't set off alarms for his apologists but they're certainly red flags for most objective observers.
