    Ariza seems to have really checked out

    No Defense
    Bricking wide open 3s
    Missing Layups
    Throwing bad inbound passes

    Gawdawful inbound passing, but also gawdawful inbounds plays... sigh JB Idiotstaff tried everything to throw this one away "Steve Kerr is drawing up plays, the Rockets are looking up at the scoreboard"

    He only looks for one option. Harden.

    For the love of god. Stop looking at Harden exclusively.

    Let Motiejunas inbound!

    He struggled doing it in the regular season as well. Guess JB didn't notice. Our players don't do a great job of getting open either

    Ariza tried to throw this game, his awful 3's when we were up 15 ... and then the 2 TOs which let the Warriors back in the game before halftime..... and those last 2 inbound passes WTF.

    Trevor Ariza is trash. He's a Trash Defender now. He was once Lord Threeza but now he's the Bricklayer. He's the most once sided offensive wing there is, he can't create his own shot for ****. His inbound passing is horrible, he lost a couple of games this year because of it. trash.

    Trevor Ariza can not penetrate off the dribble if his life depended on it.

    Yeah he's not a good inbounder or penetrator off the pump fake. A good coach would only let him play to his strengths.

    He was so bad in the last minute, I swear he was trying to throw the game. Never mind the two awful inbound passes. Don't forget that lazy pass to Beasley that might've gone off his hand when all Ariza had to do was hang onto the ball.

    He needs to get his sh-t together quickly. A few missed open shots, I can live with. But this was the kinda stuff I expect from high schoolers, not an NBA vet with a ring.

    I don't blame Ariza. The inbounds plays JB draws up are truly brainless and take far too long to develop.

    I was so furious I didn't even care we won the game. How the **** do you let that happen Ariza? Close to being one of the worst blunders in NBA history

    Ariza disappears a lot of games but that's because he has to play 40 minutes guarding the team's best player and I'm sure his legs are tired by now. He did do a lot of dumb stuff this game, but what you're seeing is more on the coach than anyone.

    he shouldn't inbound the ball, but the blame is on JBB for putting him in that spot and not drawing up a proper inbounds play.

    seriously, how much worse can JBB get? i honestly can't believe how bad and clueless he is.

    The 2nd one might have been even worse, if SIngleton was an inch closer he had a wide open layup

    Alternative take - inbounding the ball right into a Warriors break was a brilliant plan because it allowed Harden time to come down and score.

    even so on the very last play you have to smart enough not to throw it toward your own ******g basket. he almost gave livingston a layup with 1 second left. ridiculous

    i HATE ariza seriously. he cant shoot, drive, pass, or defend. what good is he ?
