1) Brunson, Randle, RJ trifecta have to keep the 20+ pace up. How much more can you ask from Brunson?
2) Josh Hart needs to figure out a way to stay on the floor and not get caught up in Lowry nonsense. He has been getting out Villanova'd
3) Turnovers have to come down - we dominated last game except on turnovers
4) Need to continue to control the boards. One thing about shooting 40-50 3's is a lot of long rebounds. We are not getting the long rebounds from their misses. That's where Josh Hart has been so valuable if he can stay on the floor.
5) The beginning of the 2nd quarter second unit shift. The game has been won and lost on this shift. I think a lot of his is how Obi Toppin is playing too. If he can make an impact and not toss up some UFO's, then we can outperform on this shift.

2, 3 and 5 not so hot

We just need them to soak up some minutes and keep it close.

Deuce-Hart-RJ-Obi-Mitch this doesn't cut it. Not one consistent shooter. Only iHart can make this work with some passing

Third part of the formula not working out so far.
Come on bench!

Lowry has 5 pts and 5 assists; he's 37 -- he's never been Chris Paul in his life. How can our guards not be making him work?

Amazing game last time...and great way to take the lead, but....

the lineup Thibs left out there before that Time out was hard to understand.

It was about as wishful thinking as it gets...in an elimination game!

A little too unselfish.

Like to see us take more time after an offensive rebound. It's like they don't realize the shot clock reset.
