That OT last night is having its effects

Guys, if the threes aren't falling due to tired legs, how about trying for some better looks inside the three point line instead of just throwing up the same crap?

And Joe - you literally just watched what happened last night when you inserted some energy off the bench. Is your memory that short?

And due to tired legs they don't wanna bang in the paint or take extra steps, so they jack up 3's/shots behind the arc

You can tell Tatum is tired because he's not even thinking about driving.

The whole team looks a step slow, not surprising.

Then work on cardio.

It's always an excuse(not meaning from you)for this team this year.

[Surferdad]

come on Luke you gotta dunk that

I?m sorry, but Kornet is not an NBA-level player. I want him off this team.

[Phantom255x]

Tatum take this over right now

That OT last night is having its effects

That game had no business going to OT last night, esp against that scrub lineup.

[SCeltic34]

I'd like to blame the OT last night, but really the C's have been a .500 level team for a while now.  This isn't an isolated incident.  We've looked like this.

[Phantom255x]

I'm not sure what these rotations are tbh

[SparzWizard]

Jaylen B needs to take over, but he's been in a slump.

And there goes Reaves...killing us

[SCeltic34]

Hey Tatum, you're getting massively outplayed by Austin Reeves. You up to the challenge?

[jpotter33]

This is such a frustrating team. You come out half-arsed and not playing hard or smart defensively and let a team get going, and now you're having trouble containing them after gaining momentum.

Does Joe know he can play other players?

[Indocelts]

I only enjoy how KP and PP play now. Always fun to watch.

And I always hate Tatum's body language.

Coming off an overtime game last night.

Wake up Joe!
