    Exactly


    Not sure what happened but Harden is too slow to ISO now and he can barely even get open off the ball

    I've never seen a dumber team. We haven't had a real coach since Adelman. Les better get his act together, and quick. Get a real damn coach in here.

    Says the guy who thought we could make the 4th seed after yesterday's win. You always over react when we win.

    They must teach stupid on this team... How a veteran like ariza decides to force the ball to Dwight on the 3 point line instead of taking a timeout is almost beyond comprehension. That's a level of stupid you'd expect from a high school team.

    Not on the road. They'll win their share at home. But they're a mediocre road team this season whether their opponent is good or bad.

    Harden didn't lose his attack mode. His attack mode just sucks now.

    Absolutely disgusting execution in offence last 7 minutes.

    No play calling, no proper sets. I don't remember when was the last time Dwight touch the ball in offence.

    It's baffels me how we can so inconsistent. I mean we beat the Spurs last night with the best defensive performance of the year so far. And today we couldn't managed to beat this dysfunctional Pelicans.

    A bounce pass because no one was trying to set a pick to free up Harden or anyone

    he would have been called for a 5 second in bounds pass rule

    we didn't lose the game on one possession

    Eric Gordon shot the lights out

    JB is a horrible coach especially bec he plays favorites (Brewer and Terry) and won't play players who deserve playing time like DMO and Thornton. I wish we never win a game so we can fire this guy!

    I dont think Ariza knew we had a TO left, Thats where the Coach should have reminded him before leaving the huddle but I dont think JB knew either

    lol we still can, we are not far from there at all and not even half way through the season. So we lost to a team that is getting their stuff together, no disgrace in that

    This loss and the Orlando loss is on JB 100%. We have the talent but we don't have the coaching or the basketball IQ.

    Everytime we go on a run by hitting so many 3pters in a row, I am shaking my head KNOWING it is fools gold and those will dry up and let the team in, as our shooters are not that good - it is the law of averages.

    Why we don't have an offensive system that MOVES players and gets better looks is beyond me, we are wasting Harden's best years like Andre Johnson for the Texans.
