    It's not neccessarily guards keeping guys in front of them. Guards aren't good defenders, CJ especially, but drop coverage on their PnR is destroying us.

    My theory is that everyone has figured out that Terry has no plan. They finally see that it's not them, but him. They're just going through the motions.

    I'm done with this shit. The next game I watch is one that does not have Terry Stotts as coach, or if we somehow get Giannis by some miracle.

    Bye fams.

    Looks like Terry is still scared of Melo.

    Stotts solution to our cratering offense is to put in Melo...

    Does Stotts survive an 0-6 start?

    The play they just explained, it seems Jones never got back in front of Mitchell.

    I have never seen a team look completely defeated and broken in the first game of the season.

    Bingo... Our #1 issue by far has always been keeping perimeter players in front of us. That has not changed and why would we expect it to?
