    I think we an all agree this one is squarely on Jock Landale.

    He hardly called timeout in 4th quarter. It's seems that he downplay this Blazers.

    Leaving Tari on bench in final minutes is another mistake.

    Make or miss league, we really need a deadeye shooter, either at the PG spot or the SG spot.

    We are great on D but seriously limited on O.

    I know people hate my Zack Lavine and a FRP for Jalen Green take, but he would instantly make this team better with his 51/41 splits.

    Can y’all try to make trade for two way players. One isn’t going. To live the Lavine or Cam trades because those guys are Barkley on defense. Chicago tried to play Lavine at the three to get more offensive versatility in the starting lineup and side bytches and sulked about guarding 3’s.

    its quite baffling and fans deserve an answer. He completely has not used Green properly since the 7th game of the season. They are back to exactly the same sets they ran early last year. Maybe he thinks this offense is best with FVV and Sengun. But it’s not. It’s best when they have multiple guys attacking the paint and ball sharing and when Jalen has the ball and sets that facilitate this.

    The team lacked energy and focus on a back 2 back. Why not implement our stay ready guys? Coaches do have their reasons so he may have wanted to keep them in for discipline and force them to work thru adversity and focus as a group etc. But still baffling how he over relied on terror twins and Sengun to win this game as well as the past 12 or so games.

    No coach could do better with this roster. The turn around is all Ime. Ime’s not perfect offensively but the guy has no shooters to work with. We are doing about as well as any team can without shooters. So that’s a roster issue. Not sure why we signed two non-shooters to near-max extensions but Stone must have his reasons ;)

    Glad you're not the coach. Dude was off today to the tune of 0-7

    Main problem is we don't have an A1 player to take over in the clutch. The closest thing we have is Green in about 7 games per season. Normally all of those games are after the all star break.

    The players are playing flat, back 2 backs.

    Wasn’t Phil Jackson notorious for not calling timeouts in early season games when other teams were making runs? I distinctly recall seeing this often and it seemed like he wanted his players to get out of it themselves, even if it cost points or games.
