So, I'ma disagree with literally everyone and say I liked everything I saw tonight except the 3pt%.

I agree with you, there was some pretty good runs of play by Timelord, Horford and Brown.  I don't get why we jacked up so many 3's. They must be coached to do that.

But I don't get the complaining about the assists either.  We only hit 35% from the field, we aren't going to have 30-35 assists.

This is probably my lowest point as a fan this season. The Minny loss was terrible. But for this team to come back with a more horrible performance just makes me really sad. Did that Minny loss not fire them up? Maybe it’s time to make big changes come the trade deadline. This group is not good together, and that includes the coach.

I thought Hauser had a decent 6+min.  Needed more than 20min from Grant tonight.

How about that Broderick huh, I really liked how we looked with him out there.

Me too. He kept it moving.

I don't know why it's so hard for Smart, Brown, Payton...etc. to do that. Just inside out ball. Suck in the defense and get some movement.

Liked him, but he looked a bit unpolished. Struggling to finish and some weird quirky decisions.

Payton with an 0/5 from 3 and -25.  Tough game for the kid.

It is really hard to watch this team. Now I know what it's like to be a Washington Wizards fan.

Why play Jaylen 40 in another loss? Play the bench we aren't winning without a bench anyway.

More like Washington Generals!

I agree with you, there was some pretty good runs of play by Timelord, Horford and Brown.  I don't get why we jacked up so many 3's. They must be coached to do that.

But I don't get the complaining about the assists either.  We only hit 35% from the field, we aren't going to have 30-35 assists.

Under no circumstances will you ever tell your team to "not take an open 3".

Telling your players that is just bad basketball imo.

You need the 3. Nothing else to it.

It's supposed to be the most efficient shot in Basketball.

... just maybe not when you're the 23rd place team in 3pt%. (And this might drop, after this game)

Were they good looks from 3 or their typical contested shots?

Phoenix on Friday.  Oh boy are we in trouble.

A lot were open because they couldn't shoot so The Clips gave them the shot.

I’m not sure why people are so shocked with the shooting. Based off the moves they made in the offseason, we knew the offense/shooting would be inept with this cast of characters.

If you are open you can also drive the ball.
