KAT was on his way to 20 first half points. Playing like a superstar.

The refs were on a mission to bench KAT. They almost benched Brunson.

No one is saying he is great, just not as much of a liability as Mitch. Not his fault he gets no run. Mitch sucks more.

Yes, disappointing, especially given the 1st quarter.

I think Leon really needs to take a long, hard look in the mirror.

We never addressed the backup point guard situation, didn’t add any legitimate bench scoring, and the roster construction just doesn’t make sense. The pieces don’t fit.

Bridges has become a really tough watch. KP is a non-factor, and yet we’re still getting worked. Jalen Brown’s in foul trouble, and we didn’t even try to attack him.

We need to start experimenting—get Towns and Mitch on the floor together and try to create some matchup problems. At this point, post post post for KP.

Brunson is playing like crap, and Mitch's mediocre 2/4 in 11 minutes is getting all the attention. He isnt why we're losing.

Nobody on this team attacks anybody. OG occasionally. Hart on the occasional fast break.

Before we all panic, I saw a lot of good things when our starters were all in.
Foul trouble was the story in this first half of the series.
Aside from Bridges being absent.

BTW Mitch was 2-8 from FT's. That 3 offensive series where we got ZERO points. Mitch is unplayable at this point. His negatives outweigh his positives

fishmike 9/27/2024 11:00 PM Ug I hate this. The idea of Towns is great until you see what a pussy he is. Jules is a dog. DD was a flamethrower locked up cheap for 3 more years. First Leon move I hate

Lebron averaged 1.5 fouls per game his entire career. KAT had 2 fouls 5 minutes into tonight’s game. Is what it is.

I commented several times, they did nothing at the deadline to compete. Should have traded Mitch. I think Delon can play backup PG, but they could have addressed that too. Having only 5 players you can count on against elite Ds, is going to be a losing proposition more often then not. I never expected to beat the Celts, but play smarter. Hitting more FTs makes this closer, can't control these clown refs. But those weak foul calls changed the tone and direction of this game. Brown gets phantom calls we just don't get without being mauled. I hope next season we get a player that can't pull this crap on. Trade Mitch/Bridges/Deuce and a pick for a difference maker. I don't trust KD to stay healthy if we gamble on him. That won't get Giannis. So, I'm not sure who the target could be. I really think losing iHart was HUGE. Those extra rebounds with both Hart and iHart was bigtime. Mitch/Deuce at the deadline would have gotten a good piece for this run. We did nothing waiting on Mitch, but as expected, he isn't a difference maer anymore. We don't even know how to use him. So sad. But this is year 1 of this new squad, so expected. Play respectable this second half or I'm turning it off.

Who is looking to make use of Mitch as a lob threat? Brunson doesnt look for Mitch, never has. Your PG looks you off, good luck getting buckets.

KAT has no clock awareness. Coach does not reach his players. They play dumb. Even if called fair, we lose this series. Just want it close to fair. KAL can't get a rhythm. The one person doing nothing is now questionable, lol.
