Doing what you always did and expecting a different result is the definition of stubbornness. So far I see nothing different from the last game. Still playing Westbrook at off guard knowing he can’t shoot the 3. James Harden still taking the ball up the court as the facilitator knowing he’s getting double teamed. Why not have Westbrook take the ball the court especially knowing the Lakers are trapping on Harden? Man-to-man defense with no help. You have to help on a player like LeBron James. Nope. No Moute, no Chandler, no Thabo, no Carroll? These guys can play defense. No interior D with this lineup
McLemore is shooting really well tonight. Rivers couldn’t hit the back side of a barn. Clearly a lineup change is needed. At this point you should roll with BM and maybe give Moute a look for defense. The dude might be rusty but was a good defender before his injury. Jesus, this is so frustrating to watch! And why not trap LeBron? Hell, try a full court press like the way they did in the fourth quarter of the last game. Create some turnovers and easy shots perhaps. Nah. MDA needs to go!!
whose job is it to address this? NOT the players. kawhi leonard sure as hell didn't engineer the raptors offense last year. lebron is a very rare exception, not the rule. fire MDA now
No doubt MDA isn’t cutting it. He’s done nothing to change the strategy, just like last year. The Lakers are getting whatever they want in the paint. Tons of second chance points and there’s absolutely nothing we can do to defend against larger players. This is one of the stupidest things I’ve ever seen
westbrook was the primary ball handler early in the first quarter and we got down 20 due to his low iq
Yeah Eric Gordon and Westbrook have been f***** trash the entire playoffs and he continues to let them play virtually the entire game while letting GOOD NBA players sit on the bench. No excuse for not giving McLemore a shot at some serious minutes...every time he's been in the game he's been great for us and once again tonight has a PLUS in the box score (he did last game as well) and has hit 3 threes yet he won't leave him in the game. Unbelievable.
Man I can’t wait to see some offseason changes. I never liked the 3 guards starting lineup with Gordon when cp3 was here. It depletes an already weak bench. Bring back Gerald Green
It’s the definition of insanity. I’ll say it again. The Sabremetrics works over a season when the averages will come through. It doesn’t work in series. A single bad shooting quarter can be very costly but over an 82 game season one bad quarter or a game is just lost in the wash.
The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, but expecting different results.
