This game corrected real quick, with how we have turned the ball over constantly.

And not defending the three.

Figured I put the game on for a couple minutes to see what's going on and as expected they are completely getting out played by a better team.

Every time they stop moving the ball they go in these funks.

You would think they could put 2 and 2 together and realize this

Yeah completely agree. Was pretty clear in the first couple of plays that Thybulle picked off, you can't play so loosely - this is essentially the best collection of individual defenders in the NBA.

Is brad going to make any adjustments? Clearly Danny Green hitting 4 threes isn’t working. And it’s clearly off bad double teams and bad rotations.

Our guys miss him a lot when he’s wide open, too.

It is not even real doubling/trapping. Just leaving 3 pointers shooters wide open for no good reason at all. This happens far too often whenever Smart and Kemba are on the court together.

True, but,unfortunately, when they try moving the ball, they move it to the other team.
