    This is what happens when two of your three best players fail to improve their outside shooting.

    Doubling down on the rebounding approach is a scam. The product is an extremely flawed team. The other math problem got pushed to the fore ina brutal manner when the first one went crushing down.

    This is exacerbated by a headstrong coach(ing staff) that is terribly unimaginative in offense (partly also because of the poor, risky roster construction)

    So the fans are now clamoring for massive overpay to cure their trade deadline fomo syndrome.

    This team is not going anywhere THIS season. So why bother? Who cares if you waste a year of KD? You do the right thing long term. 10 out of 10 times. (Whether the FO has the luck or brain to do that is another matter)

    Coach Ime's enigma offense has been cracked by the Celtics.

    Amen isn't the issue, he's the glue guy and does all the little things


    the issue is they assembled a team of non-shooters and practice everything in practice except actual shooting. Our sniper can't even hit his shots anymore.

    This team needs more consistent shooting in the worst way

    I would much rather have FVV as. our coach and GM

    We don't have a coach that can make adjustments to counter what the other team is doing.

    This is the most embarrassing game of the whole season. Really disappointing. This should have been a Rockets blowout of the Celtics.

    Tilman gotta be penny pinching when it comes to the player development program because none of these guys have improved much over the years…they’ve just been taking more shots
