    2 of the last 3 games a 20 point lead is blown. The personnel is different yet yields the same results of blown double digit leads. What’s the constant variable, the head coach. #GottaSaveThoseTimeouts

    Only guy battling for them. A lot of times he was drawing multiple attention on the boards and needed help on long misses. Didnt get it outside of Mario here and there. Not all about numbers.

    Why do we even guard the inbounder in that play? Why not defend 5 on 4? I really don't understand that.

    Tunchi, were past this dumbass idea. You were advocating for "tanking" last year, in a year where we got 53 wins and made the WCF.

    Yeah, but also, SWITCH!!! Thats what you do with 2 seconds left on an inbounds. The fact that it wasnt the gameplanning is absolutely ridiculous.

    So it was basically a massive FAIL on pretty much all levels. Great.

    We had Dame and CJ and Hood. All 3 got hot at the same time. Even pur role players shot well. We should never lose a game like that. Took us shooting ourselves in the foot to lose that game.

    Also we didnt run a single set in the last couple minutes. Played offense like we were praying the clock would run out. Also, when Skal was out to start the 4th quarter, Philly got 3 straight shots inside 5 feet because Tolliver was our freakin center. It was obvious we needed a rim protector in. After those 3 shots, Terry called timeout and I thought "Yay, he sees our soft ass interior defense and will put Skal back in"... he didnt put Skal back in, and Philly got 2 more layups. Then he put him back in, and Skal immediately bothered an interior shot into missing.

    It was just a piss poor 4th quarter from Stotts.

    Yup. That last play by the sixers is absolutely baffling how we weren’t switching at everything.

    These injuries are what killed us tonight. Yes we gave up too big of a lead and yes we should have got that one last stop but we didn't and I think that was due in large part to injuries. Dame was great tonight by the way and that last play on d certainly wasn't his fault.

    The lack of people questioning why we didnt switch on that last defensive play has me scratching my head.

    Also, why wasnt Hezonja in?

    Also also, why did Skal not play more?

    Also also also, what was that offense we ran during crunch-time?

    Anyone find a common theme?

    We shouldve switched everything. Thats pretty common knowledge to most people (just not our coach).

    You aren't the only one questioning. The play calling from about 3 minutes left in the 3rd quarter until the end was 100% ridiculous.

    Actually, Whiteside is a liability since he can't raise his arms to defend in the paint. His skill set is soft. To me, he is lazy. Meanwhile, Dame hits great shots and we still lose a 1 point game.
