I’m gonna hold out hope that this was just one of those random January games where they guys just didn’t want to put any effort in. Because that was embarrassing.

He had two great games in a row and laid an egg. Just Mids for you. I feel they do way to much iso ball.

Wondering about Giannis's back. Whole team looked slow in the second half and everyone shot like crap.

I’m talking about his ability to move.

Maybe if his name was Denise instead of Dennis.

Yes, if this one game tells us anything it’s that Adrian Griffin has been fully vindicated.

Well, it's an inkling that the problems with this team are deeper than just coaching.

But the D has to make stops if not its pointless. They really went at Beas in the end.

Fun fact, Beas has the best Net Rtg on the team in the 4th quarter this season. +19.1

Even if you make stops, you still have to make shots to make up the points and three pointers can catch you up quicker.

Dame, Middleton and Lopez destroyed us and Giannis' back is just about set to break from carrying these bums all year.

You can't carry a team on your back when you walk back on defense.

Energy & effort my friend.

A bit of a letdown game after the week that was. Not surprising.

Now the fun begins.

Let's not put the cart before the horse; he was walking back on defence BECAUSE his back was ready to break for carrying our team this year.

It is one game and the new coaching staff hasn't even taken over. :lol:

Can the hot takes at least stop until the new coaching staff has a few weeks?! Good lord.
