How can this team start so flat coming from a loss?

Kind of what they do....
they've gone the entire season playing without any sense of urgency.

They are waiting for the playoffs

If they make the playoffs.
2022 playoffs

yup, instead of driving to the hoop, we get treated to 2 consecutive Tatum stepback fadeaway 3's -- with predictable results

Bench out scored the "Starters" in that quarter.

To be honest, I don't find this team very enjoyable to watch like previous years. The style of ball they play is irritating a lot of times.
Recovering Joe Skeptic, but inching towards a relapse.

Does CBS hate post play?
Once you are labeled 'the best' you want to stay up there, and you can't do it by loafing around.

He took that first one with absolutely no one to get the rebound. Shows what kind of discipline this team has.

Pritchard, Robert and Teague are setting an example...Robert just went into the parking lot trying to get that ball.

Someone has to play hard.

I'm not sure you can call it style. They don't look like they know what they are supposed to be doing out there!

he's the best scorer we have so I'd prefer him shooting over anyone else out there but there's no need to settle for those craptastic shots

Someone has to keep Nesmith off the floor.

This team just doesn't play cohesively.  Defensively too many breakdowns and overhelping off of the 3 point line.  I can understand being tired from yesterday's game but this is difficult to watch.

Looks like a G-League game.
