Quickly almost had a successful PnR . Those are promising signs.

I love Randle but the truth is we're seeing that when he faces tough defending from tall/long armed athletic players he really does seem to struggle

And a zone'ish defense that make him make decisions he is not ready for.

Whatever the game plan they have to stop Randle it's working like a charm

It’s way way to early to tell but I’m praying Julius isn’t another Derozan/PG

Randle is playing worse than he did last season right now.

To many jumpers by Julius. Get him closer to the hoop and get the ball going through the hoop.

We might have to rethink that max deal for Randle.

Let's see if Thibs makes any adjustments or decides to wait until we're in a 3-0 hole?

How about we sick Frank on Trae simply so it disrupts Trae's walk up 35 foot 3s? It's one thing to lose - but I'd rather go down swinging and accept if the other players step up. If we disrupt the engine/Trae - it will impact things in some way. Let's make them adjust since they're doing that to Randle.

Randle is just doing what he was told to do - not fair to place too much on him. Even if he was hitting 50% of those iso shots - Thibs calling the O

Any maybe pick up the pace? It's embarrassing we look like we're JV playing the Varsity

Yeah. It's completely throwing our team into a tailspin.

We look utterly lost and are overcompensating while the Hawks are exploiting this.

It's really sad and frustrating.

Hard to blame Thibs when his star player is effectively a zero.

How do you adjust for that?

We will probably wait until elimination game to give Frank minutes on Trae

This is a must win, this early in the series.

I was thinking Nick Anderson.

In fact, because he's such a sensitive nice dude I hate to say it but he's absolutely a risk from what I sense.

He was so bad the year before that you can see him being possibly being almost entirely a confidence player that could also really fall apart.

I REALLy hope I'm wrong as I really like him and want him to succeed.

Thibs shouldve took Barrett out the game 5 min ago, and replace him with Frank ....
Randle & Barrett was awful in the first half .. the two have to do a 360 in the 2nd half

This half is our entire season and maybe more.

That's how big it is.

If Randle doesn't do better or we don't win it might set us back more than just this series.
