I honestly wonder what on earth is going on in the locker room. Basketball isn’t rocket science. A bunch of fans can see the obvious flaws that even the slowest of the slow boys can see, yet nothing changes. It is kind of remarkable!

Egos mixed in with an over his head coach

Move the ball please!

The way Mikal played was inexcusable. He played with zero effort, made careless mistakes on both sides of the floor, made no effort on defense and didn’t make one impactful play. He was the worst player on the floor for either team.

As bad as his box score line looks, his actual play was even worse. I’m out on that guy forever. He’s a bum.

When we started making our threes we were suddenly right back in the game

Why does this matter? If we had a lead down the stretch we’d have just gone to our patented prevent offense and given the game away. We literally need a lead so large that it’s physically impossible to choke it away. As we saw last year this is a lot larger than the entire NBA would have ever imagined. If we had been up 10 with 3 minutes to go it would have been anyone’s game

1. Leon Rose
2. Leon Rose
3. Mike Brown
4. Mikal Bridges
5. Pags*

KAT showed some heart tonight based on what I’ve seen and heard. Good for him.

* sorry dude, you gotta read the room.
