Unacceptable.

Trade Towns and DLO these jokers are not winners.

Boston's experience and strong team play is just too much. Still, the Wolves played pretty well tonight. They played hard. I think we were out coached a little too. I love Finch. i guess you look good as a coach when your guy Tatum puts up 53 and 10.

That OT was some of the worst defense I have ever seen. And that’s saying a lot since I have watched this team for a while.

What do you mean lol what?

This is a bit of an overreaction but he's not entirely wrong, their good offense doesn't outweigh their poor defense.

Dlo’s offense and shot creation is a nice sight and refreshing for this team. But man his defense is all time bad. He also does not seem like a winning player. Often makes stupid plays, bad shots and doesn’t play a lick of defense. Sounds like at wolves player. Even on a Max deal.

.... lol? that doesn't change that every team wants a guy like smart. He's versatile guy can play the #1-3, high BBIQ, great defense at all 3 positions and well an, okay shooter.

I'd trade for him if it didn't cost a fortune.

Other than the first half of the 4th, our offense was pretty good. So while I wish he would get more play designs, which he definitely should, I’m not super mad about it. I do think that finch would have put him in when we scored 3 points in 6-7 min to start the 4th. He should have done something and really killed the game.

Dlo is also not a good primary scorer. I love him as 2-3 option. Not leading the team and taking poor shots and throwing the ball away.

I think Dlo's best position is a SG. He can hit shots, is relatively slippery, just shouldn't be leading or facilitating the offense.

If DLo wasn’t on a max contract I’d love him in a bench role like tonight. In a dream world draft Suggs, trade for Myles Turner (Beasley and/or Rubio going out with other assets...I’d imagine Reid goes out too).

Starters: Suggs, Edwards, McDaniels, Towns, Turner
Bench: Russell, Nowell, Okogie, Juancho

Turner would cover for a lot of defensive shortcomings. Let Russell could still play 30 minutes a night and close when he has it going. He wouldn’t go for it but he just has a lot of holes in his game to be a starter.

Team needs to gel and Finch can get a lot more creative with how he uses Dlo, KAT, and Ant. You could do some crazy stuff but they dont' have any of that down yet. They were just playing ball, hit some big shots to get OT but crap offense and ace shooting from the Celtics won the day. Next season we cannot play defense like we have been, this isn't just on Dlo, we have been horrible all season giving up three's its systemic issue, our defensive scheme this season does not work.
When luck shuts the door skill comes in through the window.
