Disgraceful 2nd half. All on Joe absolutely ridiculous not calling a timeout during that run
This is silly. While I agree a timeout should have been called at some point, the coach can only do so much. Today seems like it’s more about the players and executing that the coach.

No, no, no…If Joe would just use his magic timeout wand the C’s would be up double digits right now.  :laugh:

Yeah, I mean sitting there doing nothing rather.....than coaching seems to work out well.

The players are the ones out there deciding the game. They are the ones not shooting well, not rebounding well, not playing hard. That’s not on the coach. Hate to say…

so joe qis not to call a TO? no regroup? no adjustment of strategy? really dude? SMH

Don't engage the Joe apologists. To them, Joe can do no wrong and head coaches have zero effect on the game.

Lol. Potter, you just love to scapegoat the coach. Is he perfect? Course not. Is a timeout going to help the team shoot and rebounder better? Play harder? Doubt it.

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

White/Brown/Tatum together are 15 for 43.
Pritchard/Hauser/Kornet are 10 for 14.
Conclusion: don't blame the bench.

Nobody on the C"s playing well.  Maybe Hauser on the offensive end. But that's it.  Everyone else has failed to bring it today.

Hauser should have played a lot more today with no Jrue. I wanted to see him start. Keep Horford in that bench role. Keep Kornet's minutes down. Only 20min for Hauser.

The Magic outplayed us. Give them credit.

We've been uncharacteristically bad with Al on the floor this game.

I don't blame the bench. Joe needs to play them more.

Jaylen doing a nice job getting extra possessions on defense.

Correct, blame the coach. He didn’t call a timeout and tell them to play better.

Honestly, JB is just too inconsistent and too awful of BBIQ to really be relied on consistently. When he's bad, he's REALLY bad...

There is another 1/2 of the game as well.   Kornet has given up as many layups today as he has points.

Tatum 6-17 FGA but 10-11 FTA. So more like 11/22.

FTs bailing out his bad shooting from the floor.
