Why are we running the 3 point guard lineup? Billy is such a **** idiot.

You might not know this, but we have no bench wings. None whatsoever.

Between the GM and head coach t's just a complete and total cluster**** with this organization.

The only bench wings we have are Diallo and Nader...right? Does Morris count as a wing?

How does a GM drop the ball that badly? How can you ignore the trade deadline and waiver wire so blatantly knowing that you have 1.5 serviceable wings on your entire roster?

Presti is an absolute joke. He peaked 7 years ago and it's been a steady decline ever since.

Another odd man fastbreak in our favor that ends in complete disaster. This team is a joke.

Neither of Presti or Donovan deserve to keep their jobs after this season.

If we had the proper depth, then we could still survive this first round series and advance with 75% Paul George. But because our only non-PG wings on the roster are Ferguson, Nader, and Diallo, we're forced to run Russ, Schroder, Felton lineups because Presti is a total moron.

Less Schröder, more Ferguson. No more fouls T-Ferg, please.

So many bricks...

Time to rest PG13 and hope the shoulder is better later in the series.

Well PG13's shoulder is bad for months now. Won't recover in 2 or 4 days

How many gd times is Russ going to drive all the way into the lane, within 5-feet of the basket, and pass the ball? \

And just like that, another foul on minimal contact by Ferg. Great. Back to Schröder because our GM is incompetent.

Sure, but today it seems worse than usual. It could be better 3 days from now on.

Westbrook is the only one that is playing high BBIQ. Kind of ironic...
