Willie Green has no answers offensively in the clutch. Been that way all fricking season
SGA touches the ball every possession in the clutch, play goes through him.

Same for Luka.

Same for Jokic...

And so on and so forth...


We do not do that with our best player.

Say what yall want about Willie's rotations but he really lost drawing up nothing the last few minutes. Thunder ran an offense and the Pels did not.

CJ cost us this game up by 3 with a little over a minute left and he shoots a three and misses badly. That was the opportunity to get it to Z and possiblby go to the line. Dude is supposed to be a leader but is dumb.


CJ is strictly a shooting guard. He doesn’t have a point guard mentality. Hes goinh to always find a way to shoot over passing it.

[quote]I have no idea why Zion wasn't fighting more to get the ball. You have to demand that shite in this situation. [/quote

It doesn't matter how hard he fights. Number 3 was going to do what number 3 was going to do.

How does Zion only get 17 shot attempts? Seriously? We can’t get our best player 20+ shots in a close game?

They wouldn’t have been able to clamp down on Zion if BI was playing.
We still wouldn't run the offense through Zion if BI was playing. It would have been dribble 15 times and shoot the contested 19 foot middie over and over.

That's on both the coach and the player.

The coach, especially at this point of the season, should have it ingrained that the ball should always go through Zion in winning time.

If for whatever reason the coach is calling plays that have the player standing in the corner doing nothing, the player needs to override that shite and go grab the ball.

Zion's legs being dead in the closing minutes. It's a big factor in our offense that disappears because he's not going at full speed.



He’s too busy carrying the frick out of the rest of our team the other 3 quarters. I’m not putting a loss where he went 29/10/5 on him.

Teams are going to clearly force the team to make open 3pt shots at the end of the game. Zion wasn’t the problem. They had several wide open 3s and missed at the end. They could have put it away. OKC hit their wide open 3s with Giddy and Dort.

I’ll say this again once the playoffs start it’ll be really interesting to see Willie Green coach. All these games will be close.

I'm not putting the loss on him. He was the only reason we were in that game. But he has to be better in the closing minutes if he wants to be a star player.

It's embarrassing that we don't have reliable sets and plays during the close of the games at this stage of the season. It's absolutely absurd.
