  2. This team is about 15 or more points shy of where they should be end of 3rd quarter.

  3. KAT has 18-8-5!?! I haven’t been watching just looking at game here and there and it seems like he has had a horrible game but those stats are great. Best of all it looks like we are dominating.

  6. Houston went 3 times 2 for 1 today. We went 3 times 2 for 1 during the whole season. This makes NO sense.

  10. Is it normal to have 4 guys stand around while one guy tries to make a move? Feels like that’s what’s happening rn idk maybe that’s just me

  11. These possessions where any just ISO’s and shoots a very contested jumper are not ideal. Not sure our offense is gonna find its groove until the ball starts moving around a bit more.

  12. this team is always always always going to let teams hang around. theyre not good enough offensively not to. way too reliant on extremely questionable decision makers. we see it over and over

  15. Only won that quarter by 2, which is a little disappointing. Ant seems determined to attack Jeff Green, and Green is playing him great

  16. No reason to play Ant for the full quarter. He was gassed at the end. Give Milton or TBJ minutes in a game like this

  18. Ant playing every possession like it’s a playoff series and he’s the only one allowed to touch the ball. Pass the damn rock man.

  19. Finch needs to stop playing Ant for the entire 1st and 3rd quarters. It just seems like around the 3 or 4 minute mark he gets sluggish and that’s when the TOs and defensive lapses happen

  22. You know in high school our coach had us play a free flow offense

    It was because we were to dumb to learn any sets or structure

  23. Yes they’ve had too many TOs but some of you talk about Ant and KAT like they’re on the Pistons

  24. I believe if this team makes the final and were up 20 in the 4th quarter of game 7, this fan base will still complain about this team.
