Hey Kemba, tonight’s not your night so maybe get someone else involved?

So frustrating.  Kemba missing so many opportunities to make this a game.  Not just Kemba -- but I think Kemba's missed 4 in the last couple of minutes.  So many chances squandered.

This team basically is "live by the 3, die by it". Even in a lot of their signature wins, they did so because of red hot 3-point shooting. Can't rely on that all the time though.

The basketball IQ of this team is wretched. We score every time we take it to the hoop, so let's start launching threes.

Um, excuse me - "start launching threes"?? That's all we do this year lol

Two good looks from 3 in transition, both missed.  Unfortunate.
We have to lead the league in missed wide open 3's. At least top 3.

Of all time

  • Hustle like Cowens or have a seat
1) ISO ball will not win games  2) no cutting to the hoop  3)no scrappy D like last year. Obviously the players aren't listening to Brad, tuned him out, doing whatever they feel like doing, so he should go back  to College where he has some influence over players because he deff don't have it with our current roster.
When they are taking turns taking 3's with no ball movement, a great coach would sit their asses down if they aren't listening. Does Brad do that? A: NO.   The silence is Deafening. I've seen enough, Brad's too soft , he's got to go. It's time.

Loving Tatum’s mentality right now. He’s taking it to the basket almost every trip

Pretty sure we shoot threes at a relatively low rate

Shades of Bam's block right there. Made up for it with the steal (and the foul...)

It's amazing how good this team can really be when they have a fire lit under them. Unfortunately it's almost always too late in the game when they get to that point.
