Some seriously sloppy play and downright awful decision making happening with this unit. Nurkic is nice to have as a space eater and rebound getter, but he's not a playmaker and shouldn't be trying to do so. I'd rather Bol see the floor.

Booker coughing it up as if on cue. We're falling apart as we let them get momentum back. Damn them. And now Eubanks is out there? WTF are you doing, Vogel?

We just play such undisciplined basketball for a vet heavy team.

He obviously needs a wet towel and a smoke.

Veterans but no leaders.

CP3 is washed but he would make sure this team is not such a mess

Our perimeter defense is absolutely atrocious. I don't know if it's ever been this bad before but it's a major factor in why our defense in general has been so poor this season.

KD is looking crazy washed since the All Star break. You can tell he looks baked af, he was doing nothing but smoking ton of weed every day off.

A wide open shot just clanked off the backboard and didnā€™t even hit rim lol.

Like cmon man. LeBronā€™s out there cooking and you whine about being in the ā€œgoat convoā€ so bad yet you arenā€™t even holding up your end of the battle.

Didnā€™t Bookerā€™s shot graze rim? Shouldā€™ve reset shot clock no?

too many guys dont get their hands up on defense, just standing there. If youre not gonna contest at least crash the boards

They just stand there looking at the ball go up and into the basket. Putting up your arms is the least thing they can do to contest. It's something you learn at the lowest of levels in basketball.

That sequence could have also been seen as overpassing, but we were fortunate that Allen buried another one from deep.

I'd be annoyed if I was a Lakers fan seeing AD take so many plays off. Quit being a baby.
