Because the players aren’t good at shooting

I know that the front office is more focused on long term and this is just these players’ first appearance in the playoffs… but man it is difficult watching these two games only accentuate all the issues we know the team has had and which were not addressed at all last offseason, the draft, or during the deadline.

I think it is a natural thing that Lebron at the end of his career can probably do a lot more in terms of information load than a bunch of young guys in their first playoff experience

So the jury is out on the hire, but I think the actual thing that will hurt them most is all the players and recruits are leaving

Are we just as a team out of gas?

I don’t know who they’ll get but I think it is unlikely they don’t shell out to hire a very good coach. They’ll probably be fine

I’m not suggesting he could score that much in an NBA game ever (though Malachi Flynn scored 50 the other night so who knows). I just wonder why he hasn’t been able to land anywhere as even a rotation or end of bench spot.

So Mac McClung wins G League MVP scoring 25 a game… Is he just not athletic enough to guard players? It’s weird it hasn’t translated to any team he has tried to join

Some wild picks there lol

For what it’s worth, Cole and Fultz both had a positive plus minus. My takeaway is this was a good get-right game for Paolo on offense which I think has a cascading effect on the rest of the unit. First quarter notwithstanding we showed we were the better team, even despite letting them back in a bit at the end. Ingram was out sure, but they were still in must win mode so I think that is encouraging.

I’m not even sure I would say we are slumping. The three losses in a row weren’t great but they were also single digit contests against decent to good teams. Admittedly I was only able to watch small parts of some of the games. Paolo has certainly been playing a notch below average tho

Don’t know how well Knecht’s other skills will translate (without even thinking of defense) but the man can shoot and I am interested

Draft Gohlke idc also always a good match madness when Kentucky is upset

Good time to have the easiest remaining schedule imo

Doug McDermott traded for one of those second round picks we always waste
