Orlando offense is so bad. No flow at all. Doesn?t even seem like they have plays.

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.

People joke about Jaylen's left hand. What on earth does Banchero do while dribbling? He loses it like every other possession or has it stripped/deflected easily

Orlando needs to trade Franz Wagner. Him and Banchero are too similar and neither shoot particularly well. Need more shooters.

Reminds me of the younger JT/JB years. Perhaps they just need the right coach?

I?m not sure a new coach is going to improve their ability to shoot the ball. That?s the main problem which wasn?t the case with JT/JB.

3 out of Orlando?s 5 starters can?t shoot.

So far, the play-in has been a hit this season. Every game has been close and down to the wire

Crazy Stats: Bad stats leaders (totals) ... you really don't want to be a leader here: Turnovers - Jaylen Brown Missed Field Goals - Tyrese Maxey/Jaylen Brown Blocks Against - Jaylen Brown Lost Balls - Paolo Banchero Traveling Violations - Jalen Johnson Backcourt Violations - Anthony Edwards 3 Second Violations - Nikola Jokić Stepping Out of Bounds - Norman Powell Goaltending Violations - Kel'el Ware Offensive Fouls Committed - Karl-Anthony Towns Charges Committed - Karl-Anthony Towns Personal Fouls - Wendell Carter Jr. Disqualifications - Karl-Anthony Towns/Wendell Carter Jr. Technical Fouls - Dillon Brooks Flagrant Fouls - Rudy Gobert

That said, per game stats make more sense, since these punish guys that play more games.  But interesting all the same.

Seems like it?s generally the guys who play a lot and are very high usage on their teams.  You take a lot of shots and have the ball a lot and you are going to miss a lot of shots and turn the ball over a lot.  And generally it is the best players on teams that fit that bill.

Curry to the locker room. Too bad.

Ty Lue should be staggering Kawhi and Garlands minutes so one of them is always on the court.

KP is playing really well for GS. He is keeping them in the game.

Shams Charania: The NBA is fining Charlotte's LaMelo Ball $35,000 for his trip of Miami's Bam Adebayo and upgrading the action to a Flagrant, plus fining him $25,000 for cursing postgame, sources tell ESPN. $60K in fines, Flagrant. No suspension.

Celtics would have least won the East last season had Zinger been himself like he is tonight. Tatum wouldn?t have gotten hurt either
