    But when we beat Bucks by 15, that's not who we are? How do I know each game which team we are?

    Can’t defend the pick and roll.

    Can’t defend the three point line.

    Clueless on how to play when Dame gets pressed.

    The talent isn’t great but these are basic concepts and there’s been zero progress.

    Fire Terry. Now.

    Game's not over yet. Not sure they'd fire him after a win.

    They can't play anywhere right now.

    It's crazy how fleeting confidence can be.

    Once again. Is your team struggling? Circle your next game against the Blazers.

    Why are we fucking around and making ourselves take difficult shots against a team like this?

    It took a 13-0 run before Stotts could muster up the courage to call time. In the fourth quarter. The game has already been lost.

    You're supposed to have inbound sets. If you cant even get your team to run inbound wets then you shouldn't be an NBA coach.
