    I get that. I'm just saying, that's an indictment on Jabari more than anything. He's a bust. Even if he wasn't giving us 3rd pick production, just be solid. He's not even that.

    Their offence is just too good. doesn't matter what defence we play. They are hitting them in our face

    I have been defending Jabarii but this is indefensible. Nights like these Ime should try if Jeff Green can give you anything.

    I blame Udoka for playing slow Adams so long time. Landale should be there.

    How are they supposed to look for him? Have you seen Jabari create for himself? He's nearly 7 feet and fades away against guys like Tre Man. He can barely dribble. He's not a lob threat. He's not an accurate shooter either so exactly how can they get him going?

    ehh...that's bologna...there are multiple reasons for this being what you call a 41-45 win team (don't agree BTW)....we have some serious DEFENSIVE shortcomings as well as offensive. And, Jabari is not your sole offensive problem.
