That's just unacceptable. It's game 75 and we're throwing out line ups with 3 non shooters. While Durant is being hard doubled.
Nash has been the worst coach in the league since Jim Boylen but he's also been dealt a terrible hand. The fact that we need to decide to play James Johnson or two rookies or Blake out of position in a must win game is just embarrassing. I don't care about injuries. Marks failed big time this year and I wouldn't be mad at all if he was fired for this.
I just feel for KD. The guy has shown up all season and been amazing. Now he has Kyrie sulking, James Johnson playing 30 minutes a game, Drummond trying to do way too much, rookies trying to figure out how to play, ice cold Patty, the worst defensive scheme in the league. Wtf is this.
KD doesn't get a complete pass for me. He wanted Nash as coach over people who actually know the profession and understand basic fundamentals of team offense and defense just so he and Kyrie can take turns jacking up shots.
He got his wish, and is going to be absolutely humiliated when he can't will this team into the playoffs. He's had offensive explosions and we're still getting beat.
Maybe now he will realize that he needs some actual structure in place and not this absolute horsesh*t that has wasted two years of his career
