So Zion failing to do anything against Miami is a coaching issue
Yes, it was


We closed with Nance and JRE. That's a coaching issue.
quote:

BI taking two shots in the clutch last night is a coaching issue too?
When the 1 guy scored twice and set up another wide open 3, then is a non factor in 2 straight possess, yes that is a coaching issue.
quote:

You do realize that we scored 2 points on the BI mid range jump shot that he missed? JV got the board after setting a pick and had the rebounding position b/c Vucevic left BI wide open and let JV run past him to the goal.

Process vs results


You're arguing that an inefficient mid range jumper was good because we missed it and got an offensive rebound.... Seriously?
quote:

And if you think that BI 13' mid range shot was a bad shot, you're a dumbass.
It was legit a wide open 13 footer.
It wasn't wide open, he was off balanced.

You're how arguing that an off balanced BI mid range Shot is better than a Zion shot.

What is going on right now?
quote:

Do you know what BI shoots from greater than 10' on 2 pointers this year when he is wide arse open like that?
76.5%.
today I learned an off balanced, falling away shot with a hand in your face is a wide open, easy shot.
quote:

Zion is not a closer with his current game. He's just not.
BI hasn't been good either, but he has a much higher chance of closing than Zion does currently, until Zion learns how do to anything other than barreling down the lane going left.
You still haven't addressed that we went to Zion and in 3 possessions, 3 good things happened with high % success rates then intentionally went away from it. Why?

Dude, it’s on video. Stop fricking lying.
He literally didn’t have anyone in the vicinity of him.
It was as wide open as it gets.
76.5%, but yeah sure let’s call that inefficient. I’m not making that stat up. He’s wide open shooting a 2 from 10’+, that’s his percentage on the year.
That’s a shot anyone should take when you notice JV is in rebounding position as the opposing 5 comes out to defend the mid range shot, and Vucevic didn’t even defend it, he just came out and did nothing. He gave up a wide open shot that gif missed was always going to be rebounded by JV and put back up.

What are you talking about? I literally said it’s on coaching as well, and that I don’t understand why we don’t run BI/Zion picks every play in the clutch.
And we scored when BI shot.
His last shot down 5 with 9 seconds left was a dumb shot, so sure let’s get mad at that shot and that’s why we lost.

You act like I don’t want Zion to have the ball. That’s not what I said at all. And that still doesn’t change the fact that he’s been terrible more often than not in the clutch.
It’s just irritating how you cherry pick and lie about BI.
And I’ll say it again, BI has been terrible in the clutch as well.
