    That's right. Moral victories don't show up in the standings. Not sure if the playoffs are in our grasp anymore.

    We will end 15-0 and still get the 8th seed by multiple games. We got this.

    A great showing against a great team at the end of a back to back with hostile officiating.
    BI, Zion, and CJ had a net rating of +3 when on the court together. BI and Zion had a +13.4, BI and CJ had a +13.2, Zion and CJ was just +5.4.

    BI and Zion worked. BI and CJ worked. It was CJ and Zion and all three together that didn't work.

    THere is just no structure or discipline. Any shot is a good shot.

    They had a chance to lengthen the lead in the 4th. Instead they come down and shoot three straight 3s in a row.

    Gentry and his "free flowing" offense has to go.

    For the love of god fire Gentry already! Just rip the bandaid off and move on.

    We had 9 FTAs all night. In a game that went to OT.

    Big fat lol. What else can you say. We shoot FTs like garbage but even if we only shot 50%, w should have had like 18 or 20 attempts. Would have been the difference in the game.
    Basketball.

    I can assure you, with better coaching, you'd see a better shot selection.. and better IQ all around.

    I look at it like this, if playoffs means Gentry stays another damn year, then I'd rather we barely miss it.

    If he's fired either way...then I still don't care. I just want to see Zion, Ingram, and Lonzo continue to mature and grow together.

    Who wants to talk about Jrue’s absolutely terrible flop that lead to an easy layup at a very crucial time in the game!?

    No need for over analyzing what happened.. This is it in a nutshell. No need to blame any single player for anything. That's really all this boils down to.

    lol ok he is an allstar big deal. He has yet to show up in crunch time while we are chasing the playoffs. The numbers are pretty but his IQ is weak af.

    Sure it would if the officials would call them. They allowed KP and Kleber to mug Zion all night. Ingram was hit 2 or 3 times while shooting and Jrue, as usual, got hit numerous times with no call. Yet, on the other end, any ticky tack touch became a foul. If called evenly on both ends, we win in regulation.

    One of the big position that we need going into the off-season is an elite 5 with scoring ability to keep Zion on clean. I feel that move in of itself would make us lock at a playoff participate. Not contender.

    We may not have the time to be patience with Jax.


    We can always draft Wiseman. lol

    The biggest flaw in Lonzo's game is his inability to finish at the rim. Do we have a layup coach?

    Arguing with you is pointless if you’re going to be closed minded about it.

    He has grown so much. He plays good D. Has length. Can shoot. Will only get better. He’s 22. With a terrible coach coaching the team.

    Open your eyes.

    After every loss you guys look for a scapegoat. That isn't to say that individual performances can't be better.. But this team wins with better coaching.. This team plays smarter with better coaching.. This team plays better defense with better coaching.. Individual players display higher IQ with better coaching..

    This.

    Ingram never had an healthy offseason to weight lift. He has been rehabbing for the past two years. He'll be fine. Plus, it would be an easy trade if it doesn't work out. Everything is on favor. Just pay him.

    The man is a 6'6" guard. For him to be so terrible close to the rim is beyond sane reason.

    How in the hell did he learn basketball??

    Exactly!

    Imagine everyone crying if we let him go and he continues to improve! Everyone would be crying and asking for Griffins head!

    Players like Ingram are not easy to find. Pay the man and move on.

    What's so odd about it is he actually has hops.. He's always been reluctant to drive, and when he did in the past it wasn't to finish.
