Asik has 0 4th Q minutes, Warriors grab 10 offensive boards

Yeah, I mean I get it. We went with a mobile defensive unit that was capable of switching on everybody but Jesus Christ... at a certain point, you have to stop the bleeding.

frick Monty

He was keeping them in it at the end of game 2 with offensive rebounding and his defense.

Second chance points is the reason we lost this game. No ifs, ands, or buts about it. We shite on Asik for his lack of offense, but the dude can play defense better than nearly every player on our team. But where is he when we need him? On the fricking bench. I've never been more disgusted in a Hornets or Pels team, sons. :(

Asik layed in OT and guess what happened, offensive fricking rebounds

Asik was a major liability last night! 1 pt..5 boards....no boxing out, no hustle etc...that is the one thing that I agree Monty did right!!!!!

Asik should have played the 4th. I was saying it the whole time.

You're up by 15. You're trying to limit the chances of a comeback by giving the other team the minimum amount of opportunities possible.

Bringing him in for overtime was kind of silly, too. At that point, you knew they were going to have time to slow things down, put him in pick and rolls, and put our defense at a disadvantage. And they did that almost every possession of overtime.

Monty just fricked this up as hard as he possibly could.

Asik couldnt come in because of the personnel, mainly. I know that has already been said.


But we had Davis on the floor, Anderson, and I believe Cunningham. It's not like we had a bunch of midgets compared to them. Rebounding is an effort thing, and really GSW proved that they wanted it more during that stretch.

It's a microcosm of Williams as a coach. He doesn't get the most out of our players. The same way we lost to too many inferior teams this year. He has trouble getting our guys to play up their ability when the game is in hand, or its a game we should win. Lacking killer instinct, big time.

I know teams make runs, that is just how the NBA is. But with the way we played last night, we should have been able to withstand that run, even if we would have just barely eeked out the win.

Once the game gets compressed into those last 4-5 minutes, coaching really comes thru, and Monty routinely fails. Same thing happened in game 2. All of a sudden our offense turns into an over 40 church league demonstration. When the going gets tough, we look clueless, and that reflects the coach.
