If I was being kind, I would say they think (like many fans) that it is a slump that he will soon break out of and that they need to give him chances to get his confidence back. I mean, this staff and FO MUST get Holiday back on track. Their jobs depend on it.

To me, and I am not a coach, but it would seem that taking the ball out of his hands in clutch situations and maybe running more set plays for him in general, ones that get him some easy points, to reduce the room for error and help build that confidence, would be the obvious coaching move. Putting the ball into his hands in high stress clutch moments and hoping he makes the right moves, or runs the play out of the timeout to perfection, seems counter-intuitive. Maybe starting Nelson with Jrue to get him going and then staggering.

IDK.

Why are you so down on Boogie considering our team is a .500 team with the worst TS % guard in the league in the last 35 games? This guy is supposed to be the only other guy on the roster worth a crap and he’s playing as bad as anyone.

Just curious cause I’ve seen the same “Boogie is a loser” commentary on this board from you. I’d be interested to hear commentary on that from someone who can address it instead of ducking any facts that don’t fit the narrative.

ETA: ironically Tyreke Evans has been a sharpshooter in that same time span
