    He's getting mauled at the rim and not getting calls

    He does nothing if he isn't shooting well. No defense, no passing no nothing

    Same complaint many fans have about their coach. Can't call a timeout after every 5-0 run.

    Had a feeling you’d start popping off again after Lillard and Grant went to the bench

    11pts in the first 9 minutes of the quarter. Going to need to warm up down the stretch!

    That’s where the nuance of being a coach should come in. It was clear to everyone that the team was out of sorts to start the quarter. You don’t need to wait for a run to call a timeout and recalibrate.

    Coaches value timeouts more than leads when it should be the opposite.

    We’ve won games with his challenges. What are you talking about? The only one he blew was Grant’s 6th foul a few games back but he prob wouldn’t have won it.
