You guys are having a meltdown in here lol

This is what happens when expectations are raised. The season isn't always going to be pretty. This month will be the toughest of the season.

I agree about this month being tough.  But come on, we are allowed to be mad about a really really horrible start.
Doesn't mean we can't come back, I still think we will win tonight.

You are allowed to feel however you want lol

I don't think people should be calling for trades after losing some games though.

well I actually agree about the last part....so does that make me wrong? lol

Brad being out-coached by Pop, not during the game but in preparation of the players. They do not look engaged or energetic.

I'm always amazed how fundamentally sound most of his players are.
Pop’s signature. HOFer.

thank god it's ok now

look there is lots of talent in the lineup. Especially starting unit

but its almost like an all star squad, except bench center Theis

who is there to do the dirty work? set picks? grab difficult rebounds, box out etc?

CBS has to change the starting lineup, already

almost every game these days, the team is behind after the 1st quarter and has to work extra hard to comeback

its taxing

Grant Williams for Hayward?

White can be a sneaky good player sometimes.  He looks like he falls asleep a lot.  But he is really a decent player.

Yeah, Kemba still clearly isn't right He's a full step slow out there.

Being a 50+ win team and down 24-6 in the first quarter and us being VERY upset is not a meltdown.
No NBA team should play this badly. Inexplicable and Unacceptable.

This is Brad's modus operandi. He is absolutely terrible at getting his team ready to play. At this point we have to admit this is a fundamental flaw. I can only imagine that before tip off he drones away in a monotone like a high school history teacher and when the players take the floor they've been put half to sleep. They don't start playing well into they're down by 10 every game.
