    Can someone tell me why Seth Curry, who was 0-5 from the field was playing the whole 4th quarter over Stauskas?!

    That stretch where Stotts played Biggie/Meyers killed us.

    I am going to beat this dead horse some more but weird how our comeback came up a little short... as in Stotts let the lead get too big and didnt give the starters a chance. Piss poor coaching tonight. Especially on a night where we couldn't hit a three.

    They almost gave up a 20 point 4th quarter lead. Their team sucks. They aren't going anywhere. I will enjoy them failing this year.

    Layman may be over an eFG% of 70% after tonight.

    Considering how bad the officiating was and how awful the bench was it was crazy they even got back in the game.

    That was the game. Well, really, when Meyers came in over Zach - who was doing really well. There was no rhyme or reason. Dumbest move Stotts has done all year.

    It’s a pity the players only decided to start playing once we were down 20. It would have been a very different game if they’d put in that much effort all game.

    I thought of him when Biggie wasn't able to put back some offensive rebounds. Layman gets up a lot higher than Biggie.

    His brother was in the stands.

    But really, this one was lost in the third. Bench was bad tonight. They’re human.

    Why Meyers got minutes though?

    I don't know what the hell Paul Allen saw in Stotts when he hired him on. I doubt I ever will.

    Missed so many open 3s. Last three games, we've let up against worse opponents. Need to clean this up. Came back to bite us tonight. Fuck rondo

    He benches him for three straight games that were nowhere near as close. And then plays him in a game we didn't have q comfortable lead once! WTF!
