    When you up 15 and he comes into game 1-14 and jacks up 3 more 3s and 2 turnovers that flips the game in less than 3 minutes they went on a 15-0 run ...

    trade Frauden when his value is still high.
    hard to get anything back when Frauden is on the wrong side of 30

    His bricks could be forgiven if he actually makes plays instead of turning it over down the stretch.

    What happened in the 4th?

    Besides not making a shot & not guarding anyone, other than that? ... Right now, we're in a period where something goes bad, it's gonna go bad. When it rains, it pours. It's pouring. This is disappointing. We can choose to fight back, keep our head up, not listen to the noise, look at yourself & do better. I'll do the same. If we don't do that & start questioning & this and that, then we'll have problems. I know their character. They'll take it to heart. We'll come back Wednesday & try to do better. When you shoot 9-45, fairly good shots, ...it's just not good enough.

    Danuel House?

    First half real good, 2nd half just OK. That's not the problem. Danuel did fine. He's hustling, playing hard.

    You've won a lot of games with James...

    Not lately.

    When he's 1-15, do you want him shooting those stepback threes, contested threes?

    You can tell him not to do it. That's his game. Kinda live & die with what you got. He has to understand, does he feel confident too? Sometimes he feels good about it. ...

    [more I didn't type...]

    I refuse to believe this is the #2 rated offense. Must be heavily influenced by garbage time numbers. There's no ****ing nuance to this offense. You've got a huge lead in the 4th quarter but keep playing this high pace, high variance strategy anyway. No adjustments.

    He should be working on his decision making. up 15 you don't need 3's just get to the basket and you ice the game. Russ even looked him of twice in winning time.

    he should. going for the highlight homerun every single time is just dumb. In crucial moments too. especially knowing your shot is obviously off. come on now

    Makes you think. That game 6 in Houston against the Spurs does that still sting inside or did it? Heard Harden is shooting right now on the toyota center floor but is it just a mental think that he can't just overcome? I'm tired of trying to figure it out he just needs to be traded imo.

    This would require us to actually win a game that had garbage time

    And he was dancing on people that have no foot speed and Adams wasn't even in the game. And still he danced on the perimeter and jacked 3's

    I was really enjoying them earlier this year but I'm with ya there. It's hard to watch them lately.

    It’s not that simple. Even if you miss shots you can still win if you rely on your defense, but this team doesn’t play any. They gave up 40 points in the fourth quarter. When only 2 of your starters give a damn about defense then your overall defense will be trash.
