I know he went with Miller who was on fire from 3pt land but, He was just so dumb to not take a timeout and tell someone to foul.
All that is a part of it, the lack of defense, missing critical free-throws, etc. Thats what bad.......I can't even say it
Best FT shooter on the bench, Down 3 and didnt foul. Since when has Adelman drawn a successful play out of timeout? Does it happen often? And for the dummies, I meant he's a poor coach for "closing" games, not as a coach thoughout the whole entire game.
Did you not see the 3rd qtr when Martin was making every shot? He came out in the 4th and did not come back in. You seriously think with how he played in the 3rd that He could not hit simple FTs? Are you like RA and would rely on Lowry or Lee for FTs who both shoot 70%
I think Adelman wanted to go with a defensive line up in the 4rth. C. Lee has been playing really well lately. I didnt think it was a bad coaching move.
I dont remember who else was on the court in the end, but if RA did make a mistake it was not putting more 3pt shooters out there with lee, battier, and miller...bulls knew they had to take a 3 and it would probably go to miller or battier...bltiz them for 4 secs and it's over. Should have forced them to spread out their D by putting more shooters out there.
A loss is easier to take when you know your guys put up a damn fight! not just "I don't care" attitude...
And I thought we could get a little 3-win streak going. We should not rely on the defensive abilities one-on-one of Shane, Kyle and Courtney. We should really work on our team defense. This game was an illustration of that. I was amazed at how quickly DRose adjusted to CLee's defense. He just used the screens Noah was setting. Meanwhile we couldn't design a good double team to get the ball out of Rose's hands.
not one person is gonna mention that we were absolutely robbed by terrible officiating, they work so hard to come back, just for the refs to steal it, the NBA is so hard to watch, and Derrick Rose is a classless douchebag
Rockets should have fouled DRose at the end of regulation to make it a FT contest... NEVER let them go for the tying 3pter. That is one thing I loved about Rudy T.....terrible coaching decision by Rick on that possession. Lowry and Miller missing a couple of FTs late hurt too. Dang, tough loss to take. DD
Yea 1 would have been nice, not saying zero rebounds should be a pattern but when he is shooting well...I can live with that.
They left Kyle Lowry wide open, and Miller was reluctant to give him the ball. I'll take a wide open Lowry 3-pointer over Miller trying to force up a shot with two guys all over him. He was really good for most of the night, but he should have given it up.
