He out thinks himself. Planning for the 3 instead of securing the rebound first. He subs out his bigs before the 2nd free throw. Clueless.


And he had a timeout and 19 seconds to run an entire play. Dude seriously needs to leave.

I hate losing winnable games almost as much as I hate getting blown out.

I hate blowout loses, but the close game loses really annoys me to the maximum.. it's why I needa crush some bud and get this bong hit :nod:

I'll rephrase what I said. I hate giving away winnable games. It's one thing to lose and have no shots fall, but to handicap the team by coaching decisions is frustrating.

This L hurts because now we have to play DET tomorrow after going wire to wire against DEN. Is JV going to sit players or cut their mins in the midst of a 5 game losing streak?

Not too mad at the players with this loss as they fought. Furious about JV's coaching decisions...

I feel your pain. But we have no choice. We really are too small. Our starting power forward is 6'8", but 210 lbs. Our two best reserves, at the position, are 6'7" at 220 lbs and 6'6" at 225 lbs. Even our starting center, though 6'11", is only 215 lbs. The only guy we have who doesn't look like he should be in a "Weight Watchers" commercial is Sharpe at 265 lbs, but only 6'9". Thank goodness they are all very good.

JV talked about getting size this summer. But we went bargain basement shopping and, to me, everything seems the same as last year.

By the way, even with the disappointing loss, I was really impressed with the 26 rebounds by our two centers.

Winnable game but guys missed timely shots and we couldn’t even get a rebound after Murray missed his second free throw

I hear ya.. JV coaching late game and close game situations always seems to fall flat.. and I cant stand his constant hockey subs
