OG and Mikal combined for 2/14 from three. Payne and Deuce went 2/10 from three off the bench. Brunson and KAT were 4/12 from three.

It's becoming a trend that athletic teams with the size to switch everything can shut down Thibodeau's offense for extended periods. Usually, the easiest solution would be to get stops and push the pace so that they can't get into defensive positioning...but our defense can't get stops. I don't see an easy fix.

I'm really hoping when Mitch comes back he makes a big impact on the defensive end. The paint points & second chance buckets we're allowing will make us lose more games than not & it's frustrating

I keep bringing up last season because I loved the way we played & were able to grind out W's consistently down the stretch; even if the shots weren't falling. I was always confident we could win because of that X factor & we played with so much heart & tenacity

Drive to the fukking basket. They started doing it once they game was out of hand, late in the fourth.

And I don’t know why they didn't make a more concentrated effort to feed Bridges when Trae was guarding him. That turnaround fade away would've been money last night.
