This team is so painful to watch sometimes. I don't see a win tonite, just doesn't feel good at this point.

And it's not personal, but Joe ain't the answer. I watch him over there trying to figure this out and not only is he in over his head, but he is stubborn and arrogant about it, which compounds the problem. I hate it and I hope I am wrong, but I don't see us winning a title with him as our coach.
Our defense is still good, but not quite elite like it was and his offensive philosophy is a disaster and has been since mid-season last year when he got away from the off-ball player movement / screening he had emphasized (for some reason I will never understand).

C’s are 6-10 from the FT line. Tatum with zero attempts. Denver is 14-14.
Quoting Nick from the now locked Ime thread:
Quote
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.

Oh Lord, just get on your knees for Jokic, Brothers. Ignore all the contact he gives and then call that crap.

Jokic actually got away with a foul before he drew that one
Jokic never gets called for it

Comeon Tatum.  Take care of the ball.

They feel like KP can’t defend Jokic

I swear, they just don't plan on calling any fouls for us. They're getting away with a ton of defensive contact that we're not getting away with.

You can fault JB for his missed free throws if you want.  At least he's attacking, unlike Tatum.  He's been great this game.

I used to love Joker. But I'm not liking how he pushes off on every play but whines when he gets bumped.

Every time the C's miss a wide open three a piece of my heart dies. You gotta make shots against this team.

Surprised they didn't fall for the KCP flop.
