We lost because we stopped passing the ball almost completely.

Everyone was trying to play hero ball it looked like instead of the .5 system Willie teaches where they have .5 seconds to make a decision. When they are running it right it’s beautiful basketball to watch because it looks so natural. Last night was ugly. I don’t think they will make the same mistake 2 games in a row though so I like our chances.

Love Willie but we got outcoached last night. No reason we can’t fix and learn from our mistakes though. Pels in 6

Pels don't seem to have many guys that look to make that ONE extra pass. Hopefully, that will improve next year.

Well early in the first quarter, we repeatedly overpassed and it led to a ton of ugly turnovers.

It’s a balancing act.

Gotta give some credit to the Suns. They have a lot of plus and smart defenders that make life difficult on you.

I don’t know what Willie was thinking having Naji trying to guard McGee. And had Nance on Paul which made even less sense.

This was a direct result from the Suns' defense.

You think we just decided to start playing ISO and kill the shot clock?

Nah, CJ was dribbling the air out of the ball for his health around the perimeter.

I mean he could have just made passing lanes up any time he wanted...

We need something completely new to beat the Suns. We have the talent but the Suns are a well oiled machine. Jose was able to catch them off guard in game 2 and 3 for some nice scores. We should have pushed that more. It just takes 1 player outside of BI and CJ to put a dent in the defense for the Pels to go OFF. It is not like the Pels are getting played out of the Gym, they were in all the games, the can do this, and they will, in 6!
