    Our coach is an absolute clown. He puts CJ on Westbrook and Dame on Schroeder - why? he moves Aminu on Paul George - Why? Not to mention the few possesions he gone absolutely confused with the substitutions.
    The fact we manage to have a winning record with this coach, year after year, is a miracle


    Edit: You think I'm too hard on him? Why do I know we need to put Dame on Westbrook, CJ on Schroeder and Mo on PG and he doesn't?

    OKC might be a good matchup for us. Definitely was last year, beginning to think we should really be hoping to get them in the playoffs

    What, he actually does his job for a half and you think that's worth mentioning over and over like it's something to be proud of?

    CJ needs to get it going. Expecting Dame to try to set him up to start the half

    It was nice to see Layman out there. They played WB ok. PG13 they got to quit reaching, but Terry probably wasnt asking them to.
    I still dont like having all bench guys out there, but that didnt seem to go on for a long stretch.
    So I guess overall Id say the coaching was like a B?

    We have nobody who can stop George. That concerns me.

    If Westbrook gets hot, this could get ugly.

    I'm actually ok with the Dame-CJ switch. CJ has longer arms and it allows Dame to rest a little on defense. Westbrook wants to pound the ball in the post all night, fine. Put the longer defender on him.

    Nurk vs Adams is an interesting discussion.

    I like Adams' game to game consistency/discipline on both ends, but I think Nurk's best is convincingly better than Adams imo. And we are seeing the good version way more often than the bad these days.

    Would love either one on my team though.

    Was kind of thinking maybe we might hear it a few times if someone thinks he wasn’t doing well!

    LMAO, he caught a pass going towards the baseline with all his momentum going the opposite way while Ferguson was going towards him, how is that any indication of stregth?
