The morning after...

[celticinorlando]

Not a lot highs with this team. when they did win it was like having a root canal. Lots of games where they did not show. Just a lot of work required with them.

In the end, they just never got there. This reminds me of the last season of Kyrie. That was so bad to watch. This team is no different.

 Brogdon: “I think our identity has waned all year long.”

I am sorry but that is all coaching. I love Brogdan. Dude accepted a role off the bench when he should be starting over Smart.

[kraidstar]

the heat are gonna put us down like a sick dog and out of our misery next game. they taste blood in the water. our whole organization is done without major changes like magic johnson said. this whole org has basically quit. from dumb wyc putting brad as GM to brad hiring joe.

What an embarrassment finishing in the final 4 again!

Trade Jaylen for a local ymca player and fire everybody!

YES YES! LETS KEEP FALLING SHORT! KEEP JOE! KEEP BRAD! SAVE MORE MONEY WYC! WE ARE JUST HAPPY QUITTING AND MAKING ANOTHER ECF AND GETTING EMBARASED AFTER THINKING WE MADE PROGRESS LAST YEAR!

LET THE SAME PROBLEM CONTINUE! THEYLL FIGURE IT OUT MAYBE IN 10 YEARS!

GENIUS! 

Why do you feel entitled to them winning a championship?

It’s hard. Just because they made it last year literally means nothing like everyone seems to assume.
Durant/westbrooks thunder teams looked like they were going to make the finals every year after they made it to 1 and they never got back.

I’m disappointed too but to act like they’re the worst team in the league is for the birds. They were once again on the doorstep.

We basically ARE the Thunder. Choking dogs who hog the ball, play 1-on-1, and shoot too many 3's. With garbage coaching. Our ball movement is just as bad as theirs was. Can't win titles playing like that. Thin-skinned players who don't take responsibility or learn from mistakes.

We're absolutely the Durant Thunder 2.0.

Which is why we're upset. This team is screwed.

he is a keeper. others need to be traded

Our defense has been abysmal, Horford can't guard a chair, and yet Timelord languishes on the bench. Why? Because he doesn't brick 3's with the rest of the guys? It's not like we couldn't use his momentum-changing blocks and hustle plays. Nah.

Joe is an idiot and should be fired TODAY.

He’s sticking with Al hoping he snaps out of whatever slump he’s been in. He’s an important part of this team. The results have not been good I understand that but I don’t blame him for sticking with Al.

Timelord regressed dramatically this year and isn’t that good. There’s also that.

Muscala could also play. He can shoot and play as much D as Horford's been playing.

Mike muscala is the answer!

He can make those open 3s that Al keeps missing. The Heat is playing role players and so should we. Those guys can't lose more than the guys that are playing. Doing the same thing over and over isn't the answer and changing it up could be.

We're not turning this series around without turning around the defense. It's no coincidence that we beat Philly once Timelord started playing meaningful minutes.

He's our best defender. Not playing him is idiotic.

True that! Play him 40 minutes tomorrow! Go all out! Surround him with shooters.

It's not a crazy idea at all. This team needs energy.  If Muscala really can't play then we shouldn't have traded for him in the first place.

Correct me if I'm wrong but PP, Muscala and Hauser are all 40% 3 point shooters and they can't sniff playing time.
