    Fred plays really dumb basketball way too much for my liking. Needs to be a stable presence on the court and he's not he just plays slow and takes bad shots

    Ime once again put FVV in for no reason so Fred could hunt his numbers and slow the pace down and boom Minn went on their run

    Alpi not finishing and 1s and going 1-2 from line over and over = L

    Holiday Green Amen Bari Alpi lineup was working just fine

    I have counted at least 4 turnovers, either butter fingers or bad passes. And it always happens when Rockets would run off with the game.

    We should hold coach accoutable.

    No timeout during 10pts lead gone?

    WTF

    We watched different games. Green didn't take care of the ball for one possession. He had less turnovers than Fred or Sengun. Probably our best defense outside of Amen tonight also.


    People really need to actually watch games.

    I blame Alpi for throwing to Fred who you knew would throw up a prayer and miss. Just kidding. Fred needs to be gone asap.

    The lead evaporated so quickly I can't even think of the plays that led to demise. We were playing too fast shooting, need to milk time around the 3 minute mark.

    Not sure if it’s this, but every starter getting 38+ mins on second night of back to back? Sheesh

    welp.

    Down two guys, back to back with that kind of game from the refs and Twolves shooting like 87% from 3 and we still had it. Just gave it away.

    Game 2 of a back to back, definitely run your players into the ground, it makes them play better

    Worst loss in a long time. This one stings. I don't even know whose fault it is. The team just froze in the last 4 minutes.

    Fred, our vet leader, doesn't know how to close a game. Loss on him and Ime.

    There was only 1 TO left and they took it with 3 mins left because Udoka used most of them earlier to give the team rest.
