This is so sad. Kyrie needs to take the **** shot. What is he doing to us?


Agree on the kyrie thing, but even without him the team shouldn't be this much of a dumpster fire.

I mean the freaking pistons ran a train on the bucks the other night, like, what are we doing here.

Harden has been hacked a lot, but no excuses. Unwatchable.

Getting major Deron Williams vibes from Harden at this point. The biggest dropoff in Deron's play happened when he stopped being aggressive and became a passive little bitch on the PnR, when he would IMMEDIATELY pick up his dribble and just look for the pass instead of probing.

They're trapping Harden on the PnR, but not all the time, but it's like he's expecting it and he immediately picks up his dribble and looks to pass it off, instead of keeping the dribble alive and continuing to probe.

He also generally moves like molasses and we routinely don't get a shot off until there's less than 5 seconds on the clock and we have to take a desperation heave.

IDK man, his game is not pleasant to watch, even when he's playing well. It's just awful basketball that works because of his talent...but when it doesn't work, like now, it's infuriating.

We need to get this crap right. Some set plays and fast breaks needed.

I actually don't think Harden is getting hacked at all, I think the Bucks are playing good defense on him, and Harden is hoping the officials bail him out by flailing. And to their credit, they're not.

I really though Harden had turned the corner. But hes again looking like his old self.

Hopefully he turns it around in the second half. We can't beat the Bucks with him playing like this.

No one can guard Harden. He drops 30 rolling out the bed while being fat azz. Wake up, call spade a spade. Take a look at game from last year.

Theyre not even playing good defense.

Hes getting all the way to the rim and missing. Hes not making them pay at all.

Defense has fallen off a cliff.

No offense besides KD, sometimes Harden and sometimes Mills. What a disaster.

KD isn't blameless, he's ballhogging out there too.

Whole team is just an embarrassment.

Nash is a bad coach.

But the whole team is just playing like idiots. Everyone is to blame.
