I mean this is how basically every game has gone. We have no chance to compete with them in a series. Totally outmatched.

Wow I didn’t think they would come out and already fold like that. This is really discouraging.

He can't do anything even when being guarded by guards.

Keep Gordon and Isaac, do whatever with everyone else. Those guys have playoff athletic ability, the rest of our guys don't have the skills or ability to succeed in the postseason.

Clifford waiting until forever to call a timeout was a bad look as well. Our defensive communication is horrible.

Lost on defense, no ball movement on offense.

I called it a month ago that it was in Vuc best interest not to make the playoffs.

I truthfully thought they where gonna compete in this game but ultimately come up short in the end. I didn’t think we would lose the game in the first minute of the game lol smh

Is it really Vuc's fault? He shouldn't be the best player on a play off team.

If there's one silver lining in how this series played out, it's that (hopefully, knock on wood) the front office won't back up the Brink's truck for Vuc (not that I wouldn't still want him back for the right price)

This... Even when Gasol isn't on him, he rushes everything and looks terrified of touching the ball.

These guys know how tough you need to be to beat teams with superior talent, and yet they refuse to grow a pair and get physical.

He's probably just like "What do I do at this point?". Every single game this series we have gotten off too horrifically bad starts. Clearly, they aren't fixing any of the mistakes that keep getting them in these holes
