Guys get ready to be down like 3 soon and get excited, only to blow it in crunch time.

Wrote this on page 27. That’s how predictable this is!

That's why Smart is special.

If he'd just knock off the boneheaded offensive decisions and shot selection like early in the game. This second half he has been prime Smart and excellent on both sides of the ball facilitating and defending.

But, man oh man, how frustrating is this? It's every single game - when they actually play with energy defensively and don't just chuck threes offensively, they're a really good team.
absolutley. and they also just palain missed open shots all night.

tps for eeveeryone, i dont car who wins,.

why dont they do this all game????

It’s on Brad, too little too late per usual

Completely agree. Others may disagree, but I think this is absolutely a failure of the coaching staff to push the right buttons to get their guys to play hard and smart. That's the coaching staff's job - to manage the guys and get them motivated in these situations.

Two games in a row, stupid plays by Smart.  What is wrong with the man?

If we can play from behind why can't we play from the front?

Welp.  At least we won the 2nd half and had a good 4th quarter.  Progress, right?

We don't even put in big men for the offensive rebound. Brad and Smart are dumb and dumber

Agreed.

I think down 20, guys play for pride more than anything. I don’t think the coaching staff “figures it out” only after being down 20. The problem is motivation

Again, we have 2-3 all stars on this team. No way should we be sub-500.
