But it doesnt matter when you're outcoached every game. This window was closed before we knew it. Maybe we can score a good lottery pick this year.

Too many pieces. And NEVER puts the right pieces in with a game on the line.

ETA: it’s the truest of signs of a decent coach vs a really good coach.

I was thinking about this in the 4th quarter. We are so deep how come we are not pressing all game long and wearing out the other team?

I dont care if it's the NBA. Everyone get tired.

Because our coach has no idea to manage our rotations.

I don’t know. What I saw was a team implode on the offensive end with turnovers and some bad shots, combined with a team that just can’t get stops when a good team decides that they are going to take over. CJ brings a lot to the offensive side of the ball most games but he is simply a vey bad defender. He is taken to the rim very easily, then commits dumb fouls to turn a layup into a 3 point play. Trey is not a good defender and he is not shooting well enough to be putting up 35 footers in crunch time.

Again this is a lot on coaching. If CJ is struggling when he switches- then Willie should tell CJ stop switching on defense. Help your player. Dont just keep putting him on an island.

If Trey is taking deep shots in crunch time when hes struggling thats on Willie to be like do that again and pulling you. The problem is Willie is not a forceful, demanding coach and our players reflect that.

You can’t hide a bad defensive player and just say don’t switch. The really great defenders do a much better job of fighting through defenders and making it tough when they are trying to avoid switching, but even they have to do a lot of switching. Teams are too good at finding the weakness and putting them in situations where they will have to switch.
