    cause Amen and Tari are extremely selfish running break .. they wait til it’s way to late to pass ball …

    Tari did it once to Clint and once to Bari tonight that I remember off the top of my head

    he def doesn't look the same... he played defense last year and lately does not appear to even be trying (unless you call raising your hands and saying "me?" as defense)

    Ime needs to go, send him to New York for cash consideration that covers rest of the contract we promised him and get Mike Malone or someone that can actually draw offensive play.

    Nobody really crushes that team. It’s basically their specialty this season—force close games and then lose close games lol

    Amen hesitates to drive in to much waiting on KD to come get the ball

    Unfortunately that’s a good sign for them long term.

    33 assists and 5 turnovers. I wish we’d always play this way. The players who were left open punished the Mavericks. Sengun and Durant had a rare game where they both off and the team stepped up.

    Good game other than the mini-collapse near the end.

    Amen, Tari and KD have been the guys to count on this season.

    Like the worst and Eason might be the worst trying to run a fast break. What do these guys work on in the off season?
    Really a good coach would hold these players accountable for trying to do too much. A floor general/ coach is a necessity at this point as I don’t trust Ime to know what adjustments to make in real time.

    That was way closer than it needed to be. Glad we won.

    Malone would be amazing he also didnt have a pg and designed plays with Jokic as the pg.

    The main issue with him is he didnt play their rookies but I think he learned from that by now since he said in an interview if he did that he would still be coaching.
