    You know what I'd love?

    An offense that's more than:
    Pick n roll / dribble handoff
    The occasional post-up
    The occasional baseline easily-guarded cut

    Jeez. This looks exactly like the Pelicans series all over again. I thought Stotts learned. Gonna have to take that back.

    And for the Stotts' defenders that'll say "this is on the players"... It's also on Stotts to hold the accountable, keep them disciplined, keep them motivated, etc. He's failed at all those things and that's just the basics, we're not even getting into adjustments, schemes, timing of timeouts, etc.

    Why did it take us going down 30 for Terry to switch things up? You're fired.

    There is a difference between legit criticism and just spouting ignorant bullshit.

    Little ball movement makes a lot of difference.

    And they call timeout. Terry would have let it get to single digits.

    I would've had more confidence in a lineup of Dame / Simons / Trent / Layman / Meyers this game than what we ran. At least those guys would've tried and Stotts isn't afraid to hold 4 of them at least somewhat-accountable.

    Should we make our own "Terry Stotts calling a timeout appreciation thread"?

    Need to decide now if we're going to try to win this or if we are just going to fuck around. Put in Dame over Turner.

    The problem is that some people can't differentiate between the two, and think that criticizing Dame (and he deserves some in this series) is spouting "ignorant bullshit".
