Coaching helps alot of this. He calls a timeout when the game is over and not when BI is forcing shots. Strange.
Actually it worked in their 1st win against Minnesota. But that was on a regular rotation.
This game you ask a player that sat for extended minutes (on some minute restriction) to come in and take the team home. THAT never works.
Jonas had a mismatch on Kuzma and nobody recognized it. Then dumb unforced turnovers. They deserved to lose this one and it had little to do with Washington's defense.
And I am still perplexed with Trey's minutes.
Ingram looked like he was trying to throw the game in the 4th quarter. Pitiful!
BI always trying to channel that Kawhi Leonard ISO magic in close games and I think it only worked one time against the Celtics
Unreal how much the Pels are the kings of blowing double digit leads in the 2H and 4Q. Anytime they have a big lead, pretty much can expect the game to be a loss. Makes it impossible to understand this team?s purpose to even suit up, as a fan.
Brandon Ingram hit 2 FT with 6:11. Pelicans didn't score again until 1:16.

In between:
- Graham miss
- Ingram miss
- Ingram miss
- Ingram miss
- Jones miss
- Ingram miss
- Hart miss

- Hart miss
- Graham turnover
- Valanciunas charge
- Ingram miss
Yep, that'll do it.
Basketball.
And against Denver last year and Minnesota a few weeks ago. The Minnesota game won't count as "crunch" but he kept hitting big shots to keep them 2 - 3 possessions away late in the 4th.
That said he's got to stop relying on mid range jump shots so much. Go to the rim to get a layup or draw a foul. Thats what the Kawhi Leonards do. And looked like that light came on but too late in this game.
But if he's not in a regular flow of the game then diversify the attack. You have a constant mismatch with Jonas. Why keep forcing it to Ingram after sitting him for so long?
Trey's minutes need to go up and Sato's minutes need to come down. He's done all he can to increase his trade value at this point.

We shouldn’t even be having this conversation. No other fan base would. They would be celebrating right now because they would have not blown a 19 point lead. We, on the other hand, are left helpless and confused because we can see what the organization apparently can’t.
Yeah... Willie only started coaching 2016. Wes Unseld Jr got his start in 2005.
It's one of things that I didn't like about Willie. He only had 4 years as coaching under his belt.
With how much the media, league, and playersloves Willie's potential. I think it's worth working through his learning process as well.
Per Will Guillory, Jonas last shot of the game came with 11:13 in the 4th.
He got called for a charge late in the 4th, but that is still far too few looks for a key player. Harrel really had no answer besides trying to draw charges on him.
That is all on Willy and also Devonte. Your point guard has to recognize mismatches also.
