These are the crappy calls they need to prepare for in the playoffs.

Serious ref job tonight, but we let them shoot 57 pct from 3 and the field. After giving up 61 pct the last game. Where is the defense?

Can't even get too upset when it's that blatant.

Yeah and it's not like the heat is some offensive juggernaut. I dunno, maybe the hunger isn't there this late in the season.

Wondering why McBride is getting Frank’d out of the rotation

Brutal officiating start to finish - Brunson/Randle 6 free throws combined and Butler 14.

Brunson killed on D most all night - just like Mon. Brunson with 5 sloppy TO’s.

We let Vincent/Struss look like splash bros.

Quick 1-8.

Thibs refuses to challenge anything —- refs blowing calls on I-Hart before he could check in game.

This team is getting away from what made it successful. It is not an offense based team, that offensive efficiency rating was high because they were defending and running and scoring off their defense. This team is not equipped to win games where they allow over 120 or so points. Every good run this team had was based on defensive good to great defensive metrics, their offensive system is not suited to how they are now trying to win. They are losing their identity.

We measure success when it’s money time. 8 games left, we have entered money time. Gotta turn this around. Good time to start a new streak.

Agreed - we are wanting to win easy with offense and that’s fools gold.

We are still giving effort defensively but we are being careless and making poor decisions- very frustrating.

We arent headed to the lotto. Its important that we get past the first round. It will get the rest of the league's attention.

You are ignoring that heat and nets are virtually tied for the 6 spot

If we fall into the playin and lose, we are a lotto team. Believe dat
