Simply put...... one shtty quarter has been our undoing in the last 3 seasons. We will outplay a team for 3/4 of a game, but a single quarter will be so bad and disjointed that the L rears its ugly face again. So much is in our control, and yet we just let it waste away with poor D, inconsistent rebounding, no offensive gameplan, and no adjustments to our opponent. I want to believe in MDA, but I have to believe that the above rests on his shoulders. Here's to a good 2nd half, but that 1st was scarier than anything I saw on Halloween.
Ok, we cut their lead from 41 to 25--wooofckinghooo!!! I can't believe this is our basketball team. WTF???
21 points at the half by Harden. Just 9 away from extending his 30 point streak to 4 games. Let’s go!
Everything else you say besides limit the mid range shots isnt really moreyball. Morey is the GM not the coach he just told everyone the analytics which show mid range shots are bad. Whether the pace is low or high whether they take 3s or 2s, that is all up to the players and coach. We take a lot of 3s because we have James Harden who takes a lot of 3s, its not because Morey is telling everyone to break the 3 pt record every game. What straw man are you talking about? Just like with Moreyball you dont understand what a strawman argument means lmao. Sorry but I'm not a paid tutor, you will have to educate yourself on these issues.
I bet someone's gonna say ”relax guys, its just the 6th game of the season” Well it's only the 6th game of the season but it feels like we gave up already. Sheesh Something or someone is gonna change. I bet its either morey or mda is gonna go. Chinese Gods have forsaken us
Time for a trade to get defensive players enough said, its obvious they forgot about defense when updating this roster.
Or he could stay in to u know get his shot back lol. Honestly this teqm needs time on the court. I would plqy them the whole game no matter the score. To many things need to be worked out on court to pqck it in....ego shot, clint uselessness etc
at least when Cp3 was here injured all the time, he was probably yelling at our players, keeping them in check. The only person Harden jaws with on the floor consistently are the refs when they don't give him calls. Westbrook almost never talks unless it's in a scuffle on the court.
I just tuned in......... and then i just tuned out...... SMH....I expected a loss but not a boring loss.
Analytics say that Tom Brady throwing the ball is more efficient than whatever running back has been on the Patriots roster for the past decade running it up the middle so why does Belichick still call run plays from time to time? To keep defenses honest.
Man I hope so, I can deal with missing shots at times. But I hate lack of effort and fundamentals, that is totally within your control. The effort got better the second quarter, if we can go on some runs we'll see, it's tough.
