    I wish we'd move the ball and move players off the ball. That'd be fun.

    That's not what you do when you've been used to hero ball for much of the season.

    Our offense is so slow to develop. Warriors have usually made 3 passes in the amount of time we take to cross halfcourt.

    Or he's just trying to keep minutes down on the starters. This isn't a must win game and the experience these guys can get will help in future games.

    Our bench can’t get any traction against theirs. Not great.

    8 seconds of every possession goes to Evan Turner bringing the ball up I hope Stotts knows that.

    It’s amazing that our guys have no clue how to block out to get a rebound. Pretty sure I was taught that when I was in 3rd grade.

    So fucking annoying watching a great coached team play the right way and hearing people chalk it up to "They're just more talented!"/

    They have Jordan Bell and Alfonzo McKinnie in their starting lineup and still played the right way.

    It's so ridiculous how long we take to enter our offense.

    Turner really is bad, ugh. No reason why Hood shouldn’t have been fed when their bench was in.

    We spend 12 seconds making handoffs 30 feet from the hoop and end up with the original player holding the ball in the same spot where the handoffs started.
