So it takes ime the entire 3rd if terrible basketball to bring Romeo in.  Edited.  Profanity and masked profanity are against forum rules and may result in discipline. is this guy's issue

Romeo is +27 in 13 minutes.  That's incredible

[pokeKingCurtis]

Even at the free throw line Tatum misses the 3 lol

[Silas]

Romeo now +27.  Ime will probably take him out.

[Sophomore]

Good night for the inhabitants of Romeo island!

Ime's ATO plays never work.

We literally have the highest ATO score of any team in the NBA.

That's amazing.  It's not because of good play design.  It's usually not a great play call and things often break down - the shot that is intended usually does not result.

That link describes otherwise.

I think we're just very keen to go "this coach sucks" because the team's doing bad.

Typical fan stuff, y'know.

You can still make buckets even if the play breaks down.  Brad was much better at ATO plays, especially in his earlier seasons.

Were we leading the league in ATO plays under Brad too?

Just asking.

All I'm saying is, maybe we're wrong about things. And ATO breaking down, doesn't necessarily mean bad coaching. Could just be players executing poorly because of whatever reason. Heck, even "not enough practice" is a great excuse for it.

I give him credit for playing him.

Obligatory - you talkin practice?

Lol guy can’t catch a break

[Sophomore]

What Tatum just did to Nurkic. Wow.

[radiohead]

That double was lame. 

[pokeKingCurtis]

Man, saw Dennis Smith Jr.'s life drain out of his eyes as Payton nailed that on the replay lol

FastPP looking like an NBA 2K14 generated player adds insult to injury
