Willie has taken this team as far as he can take it.

The turnovers at the end of games and missed free throws are absurd

You have to fire him. This team runs no offense and is completely clueless in the final 4ish minutes of every damn game. Yes, this game the refs determined that the Grizzlies were to win but they collapsed again to put it in that position.

You have to fire Willie to try and salvage the season.

It's the Players just as much as the coaching.

We can't make FT and we got Trey airballing 3's and Zion driving into 4 Grizzlies in crunchtime.

Everything about this team from ownership on down is littered with stupidity.

And Borrego forgot to bring his offense with him. How this team don’t avg 110-115 a game with this talent is ALL on coaching.

75% coaching, 25% officiating

Pels had possession of the ball after the overturned foul

WTF was that on the Hail Mary lob? That never ever gets called.

I need to take a break from this team for a few weeks unless they fire Willie.

Translation: see ya'll on Thursday

Watching us in clutch time with offensive possessions that don't have a single pass is so painful. That's on coaching.

Funny you say that. I was angry texting to my best friend. He laughed at me and replied that I said the word "stupid" 4 times in 1 text.

BI hold the ball for 20 seconds then shoot a highly contested turnaround 20 footer

Then do it again...

Then do it again...



We don't have a competent coach right now, nor do we have a competent closing group.

Even our good shooters fricking SUCK late in games. In the last three games how many air ball threes or bad brick threes have we seen?

I'm definitely taking a long break. Games are not enjoyable.

This is truly a stupid organization from top to bottom.
We lose games we shouldn't because of it.

It's pretty fixable. They have this crazy fricking rule in the league where you can stop the possession if you have the ball to draw up a play. I think it's called a timeout.

I decided to watch every minute of every game starting three games ago. Is this normal? The late game possessions?

Just simply not true

Missed free throws, turnovers, and a phantom foul call that was overturned resulting in a jump ball that never should have happened all were equally contributory to coaching errors tonight

IMO

But yes Willie is proving he can’t win in crunch time and that’s all the playoffs are

I know Z got the charge in OT and it was a bad play, but it's still mind boggling that we don't try to run plays in late game situations to get Z free and moving downhill. There will never be a time where a BI iso is a better play than a Zion drive, even if it does wind up working occasionally.

It depends entirely on if BI or Zion can get a favorable switch off a pick

Both are good options if we just move a little faster and stop trying to win by letting BI run the shot clock down

Late game coaching has been atrocious
