And we’re back to where we were last year

Sometimes its not your night.

BAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLll GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAME

Please tell me that after fighting all year to have the best record, we're going to lose home court advantage in only the SECOND GAME!

the J’s might be scoring but their defensive effort tonight is pathetic. you can’t win a chip if you don’t play both sides of the court for 48 minutes. allowing someone as limited as herro to torch you at home is a joke.

I'm not sure what you're watching, but that's not on the Jays. They're getting screened off by Bam - with illegal screens no less - and it's the bigs that are playing way too far down low to contest it. That's literally what it is every single time, with the only other exceptions being when Jrue is playign his free safety defense and way too far off of his man.

It's the ridiculous defensive gameplan that is killing us - the same one that lost us the Finals in 2022. Wonder who we have to blame? 

You know who was in charge of the defense in 2022?
Joe.

Exactly. This reminds me so much of that series, too. So frustrating watching us just drop every  PnR and give them a wide open three point shot. It made no sense against Golden State, and it makes no sense against this team of three point shooters, either.
