Just realized that despite all the nonsense this team has been pulling this year, they're still somehow 13 games above .500

probably because we aren't being blown out and if you add rozier, no one else would be playing in the playoffs. time to lock it in (hopefully after a last starting lineup change).

The lack of enthusiasm from the team has finally rubbed off on the crowd. This is the worst home crowd in ages

Because he’s completely forgotten how to coach it seems.

He’s been truly awful this entire season and is getting worse as each game goes on.

So you'd prefer he didn't shorten the rotation?

Yeah I’d prefer he’d give Williams and Ojeleye a shot over freakin Theis and Morris.

Frozen?? Everytime he has the ball, he drives and kicks it across court to the opposite corner. The defense knows this and is sitting on it.

It helps to play in a conference where the majority of the teams are below .500.

I thought the Irving,Brown,Tatum, Hayward and Horford looked good but we haven’t seen that line up in the 3rd.

Can either team hit an open shot? This game is awful.
