    Looks like small ball has run into a brick wall. Let’s hope it’s regular season boredom and not the competition figuring it out already

    Just remember he knew “exactly what we needed to do”, which apparently was get another superstar player he could alienate with his lack luster leadership and pouting half ass performances

    This HAS to be some Space Jam s***. Monstars took their talent.

    There is literally no better explanation.

    He might be fired soon if this keeps up

    Some of this is on Mike
    but alot is on the players
    They have to start Team Rebounding
    Where is the disruptive defense

    They maybe tired but looking at the numbers they seem a step slow

    It's possible. Something happened to this team before that Knicks game. Did they catch the coronavirus in NY or what?

    Put Bruno out there, just try something different D'Antoni. Use your whole bench

    I wouldn't be surprised that DMA is gone for the rest of the game...he was still complaining to the refs as they headed to the locker room.

    The Celtics figured it out and shut Harden out in the second half of that game. Every one else is now copying it. Our current small ball game is officially figured out.

    It's not a sabotage because he's still giving us high scoring games, getting assists and rebounds.... stuff like that. I just feel he's lost a lot of his swagger he had from last season.

    We were a much better team when we had a big man. We've basically gave up our whole defense and system just to fit Westbrook's style. I'm sure he's loving it.... but it's probably killed Harden as a player. It's not a coincidence Harden is having his most inconsistent season since Westbrook's been here. This isn't me having a go at Westbrook, and it's definitely not his fault. But we've changed everything for him..... and it's definitely his team now.

    The only thing we can do is change it in the summer.... but unfortunately either Harden has to go or Westbrook has to go. Or we get a big man who can shoot. Oh, we definitely need a much better supporting cast.
