A Jayson Tatum nuclear performance away from being on a 5 game losing streak, Bucks have passed us up in the standings, offense looking worse than ever

I think it's ok to panic now

Gameplan is out on this team

- Be physical with them
- Run them off the 3 point line
- Rebound well against them

Magic the entire game had 3 bigs on the floor, and what does Mazulla do? Keep playing small ball, outside of maybe a 5 min stretch of Timelord and Al

I commend the team for hustling more and playing with more energy. But you can see whenever an opposing team runs them off the free throw line, they get so discombobulated and commit turnover after turnover after turnover. They literally had 4 guards on the floor at one time and wondered why the Magic had a thousand 2nd chance points. That small ball 3point gimmicky offense at it again lol

:mjlol:Mazzulla is clueless when it comes to adjustments. And has the temperament of Brad and not Ime. If this team doesn't get to the Finals, he ain't getting past that Interim level

Don't even have to run them off the line. They're bricking open shots in crunch time anyway

Honestly think we would’ve won this game if Mazzulla played Rob in crunch time over Grant

All Grant did was fukk up

I see why Stevens loves Mazzulla so much. He has the same stupid fukken mentality as himself.

A microcosm of the game was a play when we had a 3 on 1 break, score was close, and White instead of passing it off for a layup decides to kick it out for a 3 when the team couldn't throw the ball in the ocean while standing on the beach.

Think it happened a couple times actually

shyt pisses me off regardless of which team it is. Even in terms of analytics, an open layup is always the higher percentage shot. Three man weaves are drills you do in 3rd grade AAU, unless the defender makes a miraculous play you should get an open layup

49ers..Braves..Celtics
yall gettn carried away.. yes the rebounding has been an issue but far as missing the open shots go... that's a slump that they will get out of.. they were unconcious for 26 games. That was not gonna happen for a full year.

Today i throw out because Tatum was out and Brown shot terribly. Brown usually shoots way better than that when Tatum's out.

They won’t shoot this bad forever but it’s always frustrating to lose winnable games

IMO is not just making/missing shots, its the offensive gameplan. To have a 3 point dominant offense, no one on this team are pure shooters outside of Hauser and Pritchard.

This team has a size advantage at the PG, SG, and SF spots. They should be using that to drive to the paint consistently and post up more
