    Remember that was Ime’s defensive unit to stop the Blazers but looks like 5 forward defensive unit ain’t doing nothing to stop. Honestly Reed did pretty well defending Deni tonight unlike Tari and Amen

    To be fair to him who else is he going to put in? Our best shooters were out there, they missed their shots.

    Ime deserves a lot of criticism but when you're shooting like 18% there is only so much he can do. Missed shots also fuel the other teams offense.

    No PG is going to matter at all if they keep trying to run everything through Durant.

    NONE !!!!

    less Durant, More TEAM and we are much better, instantly.

    He didn't block out and then got out jumped by a smaller man. Cost us 3 pts. This is the kind of effort that loses games and he needs to hear that sh_t won't cut it from the coaches. It’s a teaching moment, I hope someone executed.

    maybe... but based on Amen having games with no 3pt attempts... im figuring nobody is pushing him to take them... just my opinion though, idk...

    Well yeah for sure they should make some more of these open ones but they'd probably shoot better if those not open ones were open too. And if some of those 3s were like cuts to the basket instead.

    We can’t even beat their zone because we can’t pass a basketball without turning it over.

    Jabari didn’t get a cent from his new contract. If he keep playing like this we gonna use him as salary match next season just like Jalen. Sucks that if we had cap space Trae would be good fit since we need someone that can safely dribble the ball all over the court, pass and shoot three.
