    Ime acts like we don’t have any guards on roster - Reed or Holiday or Davidson must be on court with KD at all times …

    He had KD out there with Okogi Amen Adams and Alpi … Pelicans just doubled KD and packed paint … so he brings in Bari for Okogi so they switch to daring Amen to beat them

    Blowing a 25 point lead is almost unbelievable. There is no accountability among the players, and Ime is coaching poorly.

    I expect Clint to be gone at the deadline. We need ball handling.

    This is pretty much all of our offensive issues. We REFUSE to play a PG, KD ain't one, Sengun ain't one, and they have no idea what they are doing when defenses key in on taking the ball away from them.

    You are 100% correct, either of these guys would be better than having no PG at all.

    Man! This loss hurts I don't why. Probably I need to lower my expectations for this team

    KD is so careless with the ball

    Ime needs to smarten the *** up. He keeps using the double big defensive lineup in the 4th quarter to try finish the games and it's costing us. TRY SOMETHING DIFFERENT IME FFFFSSSSS

    i think bari as the focal point of an offense would be different than bari here forced into a role of spot up shooter. Bari has a lot of skill that ime doesnt use because he has no idea what he is doing on offense. Bari has no idea where his spot is on the court.

    Either he’s betting against his own team or he’s really an idiot. Those lineups made no sense. It’s like he’s losing on purpose sometimes.

    Not even just that, the lead was built by playing lineups with a ton of spacing....so what do they go with down the line? ****ing double big plus Amen...basically the worst spacing lineup possible.

    Don't worry, Ime will no doubt blame the players and that's that.
