Why fouled Young? Now we have to make at least 2 points with still 8 secs to go.

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.

Jrue passing up a wide open lay up to go up 5 makes absolutely no sense

Here comes the JT step back brick

Jrue passed up the open 2 only to turn it over.

omg

Yeah, was thinking the same thing. You just take the dang bucket there and make it a two possession game. Don't run out the clock.

I don't understand Joe's way of thinking here. He relied on the Jays too much while ignoring PP. And tJrue should've taken that 2 pts to increase the lead to 5 and game over. Stupid.

  • Sometimes there's no sane reason for optimism
Jrue was obviously a moron there, but I just hate the idea of intentional fouling when you have a lead. Maybe you can do it with like under 5 seconds, but you can?t count on making all of your FTs over and over again down the stretch
