    Our offense forcing it into Melo is a god damn disaster. Entry passes are bad, shots are bad.

    and just like that it's a 7 point game.

    This team is literally allergic to leads.

    We are hellbent on forcefeeding Melo in the post this quarter? I swear that is one of our least efficient actions this whole season. Teams dont double it ever and he keeps missing. Why do we keep running it?

    Nobody on the second unit knows how to run an offense; it's dreadful.

    All the team can do is jack 3s. That's it. Hope you make them or Enes can get a put back.

    Timeouts have no measurable impact on momentum, only on the next possession.

    It's funny coaches think they do have an impact and call them only when their team is doing poorly. You'd think in todays world of analytics someone would break this old school trend.

    I don't get why they go to Melo at all as an insolation.

    Also, looks like Simons is in the "good at home, shit on the road" stage of his career.
