    Maybe at some point they realize and make and adjustment, but with MDA it’s doubtful

    The NBA is 50% skills and 50% perception/reputation/entertainment value. Clearly the NBA did not like our style of play last year, hence the freedom of movement rule. And now that we are playing less well, the refs are giving us the reputation of a gutter trash team and swallowing whistles everytime one of us drives into the paint.

    It’s fine. The NBA is a fake entertainment product. It is what it is. Tilman as an owner should be more receptive to tanking than Les was.

    What is our total point output in last 4 quarters of bball?

    I feel like its lowest in NBA history.

    Time to rebuild. This Harden era has been the worst in my 15 years of watching basketball. Give me Franchise and Cat, Tmac, Lowry, but not this ****... heartless, no hustle, lazy ass team

    It's hard to tell where the defense is because we are giving up what seems like 20ppg off of our turnovers .

    Also the defense is so much better when you are scoring and the opponents don't start getting momentum .

    We can play good defense but give up a make ... when we gen waltz down to the other end and brick a deep 3 .... there's only so many times we can rally around the D before we start to lose focus

    Gordon's agent must have told him there is some noise because he looks out of it.

    We can talk D scheme all day but we all know D is mostly effort and hustle and you just don’t see the intensity this year. You see it in spurts, occasionally, but for the most part it’s disinterest. No idea why but you see it

    Not impressed.

    This game is not entertaining.

    Just ordered this to make up for this trash of a performance so far...

    MDA loves playing small .

    I think he actually named his dog "3-ball"

    I think it’s pretty clear that this team needs some new leadership. Wouldn’t be surprised if MDA is gone soon

    Why don’t we have plays for that situation. That’s bad coaching

    Has 1.3 seconds to jack up a 3.

    Doesn't sub Capela out for literally anyone else on the bench. C'mon, MDA.
