    They obviously aren't aware of Stotts' 3x5 cards that tell him when to call a time out.

    Pretty much if it wasn't for Nik, Zach and Caleb this team would be down by 30.

    This is what he does. Then at some point he'll knock down 4 or 5 straight difficult shots and even out his percentage.

    I like Stotts as a guy, but I really hated that right after the pelican series' they made it clear he's staying. He is a very average coach in my opinion, but we've seen this stuff so many times. Why not try someone else and see what they have to offer. I wish so badly we could see what this team would look like with a different coach...

    Any good small ball team with good reach just slaughters us. They go theough Nuek like swiss cheese. How the hell does Terry not see this shit and make adjustments? Scoring more doesn't fo anything

    I'm absolutely baffled that he still never makes any adjustments to the things teams do when they decide they want to shut us down and also get easy baskets. It's been the same shit since his first year here. Still can't defend pick and rolls. Still don't know what to do if Dame gets doubled. Just keep running a screen out for Dame at 35 feet so he can get doubled while everyone watches him.

    Collins is a +17 in 11 minutes. He has 0 fouls.

    Why is he only playing 11 minutes in the 1st half?!?!?! This is gonna infuriate me all season.

    As bad as it's been only down 4 seems like it should be worse.

    No, of course not. That would require Stotts to be a good coach.

    They're doubling him every time he touches the ball. And we have no answer for that, as usual.

    Terry needs to fucking go next off-season. This just isn't acceptable.

    Guess him getting minutes just... isn't in the cards.

    Ugh.

    The way the 1st unit Stotts might have to shake things up in that group. They don't play together very well on either end. You your guards taking majority of the shots. But in the defense the other 3 guys playing like shit. I like the 2nd unit a lot they play together really will.

    Its funny because itnseemed to be improving in the preseason and now its reverted back to how its always been.

    Where's the ball movement?
    Why aren't we running in transition?
    Where's the player movement?
    Why isn't Dame being used off the BALL?
    Why can't we switch defensive coverages according to matchups and to keep the other teams offense off-balance?

    Totally agree. Our bench is better than our starters
