    Nay.

    Jalen could have won us the series, but he was never reliable enough to be counted on for that.

    Ime, on the other hand, stuck with the same scheme when he should have introduced some variations - especially on the road, but also at home. Take a small, calculated gamble, give someone a chance to hit some shots and open up the game. He cost us the series, IMO, as I expected much more from him. He didn't step up, showed he can't think outside the box, and relied too much on the same routine - even when it wasn’t working.

    Ime Udoka is a huge problem.

    Reed Sheppard should've played every game in the G League, develop there called up and played backup PG.

    Not being Offensively innovative or imaginative. Creating a play out of a Timeout always failed. That is a really bad Offensive Coach also in Play Review failed review everytime it seemed like.

    Jalen Green had 36 points at Philadelphia and called on Alperen Sengun to take the last was infuriating to watch Alperen Sengun Airball the Last Shot instead of Jalen Green getting the Last Shot he deserved to take.
