    Good to see Dame getting his shot back and Vonleh getting some burn. ET looked good again and Nurkic played his best game of the year.

    Didn't much matter. Like I said, he was forcing shots he didn't need to force. Every time he shot, I was relieved because I could tell it was a bad shot and he was bailing us out by taking it. When you do that it doesn't matter who's guarding you. Again, we see the same out of our own players when they are playing poorly. Like when we criticize Nurk for rushing shots over players when he's bigger and has backed them into the paint.

    We will continue to struggle until we start playing as a team on offense. It same old thing our guards play to much ISo on offense. When we do run a offense we been pretty successful but we don't do it enough to be effective. Tonight Nurk had his best game of the season. Now the bench not doing anything due who we got running the 2nd squad CJ he not a point guard he doesn't make anybody better on 2nd unit as long as he try to get his points with that unit. Right now we play like lottery team and until we start playing the right way on offense we will be on the back end of these alot.

    I only saw the last few minutes but it looked as if CJ was working very hard on defense.

    I put it on Stotts. Our forwards were trash tonight and Collins and Swanigan didn’t play a minute. You’ve got to give those guys some burn! Stupid.

    The play that had me spitting in anger was that last play that was drawn up for Dame at the end of the 4th quarter: driving into the paint with no help against Gobert and about 3 other people. Fucking terrible.

    Our end game and end of half playcalling has been trash for the last 1.5 years. It's always Dame or CJ to create on their own and ends up with a bad look.

    If the Lakers beat us tomorrow, that should pretty much put Stotts on notice that he's gonna get canned.
