I turned it off. Getting embarrassed by the Cavs? Unreal. This is the worst team we have had in years. We are about 5 players and one coach away from being competitive.

Old school players must be laughing at the fact that that's consider a flagrant 1.  Soft.
It's insane.

Smart is catastrophically bad when he's the only guard out there

Eh, at this point just ride it out to summer. We suck. Brad doesn't have a grip on this team, and the roster is full of holes and mismatched parts on top of being young. This summer:

- Work a buyout with Brad so he can go back to Indiana to coach. He's just not what we need for these young guys to keep them in line. They already don't respect him and he hasn't instilled any kind of discipline in them.

- Build the team out around your main three of Tatum, Brown, and Timelord to where the rest of your team complements your main guys. If you can keep Smart, PP, Nesmith, and Theis, do it, but they're ultimately trade-bait if needed to upgrade the roster.

- Use the TPE to bring in another good-sized complementary starting piece.

- Try to offload Kemba.

- Get more shooters.

- Fortify the bench.
Recovering Joe Skeptic, but inching towards a relapse.

Smart with 0 assist and 3 TO...

Smart 0 asts and 4 TO

Grant Williams just complained on that non goaltending call which resulted into a fastbreak. Get down on D!! Add to that he comes upmwih a flagrant foul after. You can’t be that entitled.

Brad seems to encourage that behavior, sadly. Theis, Smart, Tatum, Grant, same behaviour. Our players are soft.

How bad can Nesmith be to not be able to play in this game?

For real. I don't understand Brad''s complete reversal of GWill being the one racking up DNPs to now Nesmith racking up DNPs. Makes no sense.

Maybe the poor dears are tired after having to play two games in a row.
Any odd typos are because I suck at typing on an iPhone :D

As long as he holds Nesmith responsible....

I think the lack of fans is playing a part in this p----poor play by this team.  if they played like this in the Garden there'd be boos raining down on them mercilessly.  sometimes players need that kind of wake up call that this level of play is not acceptable
