Poor Rudy has no chance. Hope he just hugs the perimeter and makes the rest accountable. We'd probably lose by 30 but make the FO change something next year

After watching this crap, I'm gonna go watch Groundhog Day to get my mind off of this...

It just seems like we're a step behind on every defensive rotation.

Yeah, then we did some goofy **** trying to double team the driver instead of just rotating on defense correctly to the corner.

Does our defense suck that bad or are they just on fire?

Rudy Gay was our defensive solution (something I actually saw argued by people, no see look at these stats he's really good!).

 

[Bodhi]

We have 2 real defenders on the whole roster.

2

We **** the bed the last 3 minutes.

The best team win tonight. Unfortunatly it was Dallas. Too many mistakes , poor defense, Don taking 30 shoot..., Mike beeing totally crap.....too much to expect a win. Unfortunatly what we have seen is regular season still here...

 

[DasJazz]

Gave this one away. Still, we have the overall advantage by splitting the series and far and the next 2 in Utah.

 

[Jingled]

Meh.

I figured this group would blow it, but it's still frustrating.

Very frustrating. We have such a huge talent advantage over them.

Everyone acting like Brunson was great. I feel like every team has a similar player that could have a career game on this atrocious defense. DM might be the worse defensively than Bertans. Just ducking useless.

So much blame to go around:

Quin: He let foul trouble on Conley and Clarkson throw their games off. Conley never got going because he got taken out too early and Clarkson got haulted because of his foul trouble. Just let them play through it.

Donovan: Hero ball in the 4th and some of the worst defense I've seen from him. Sucks because he played a very good game before the 4th.

Rudy: Messed up way too many of his opportunities. Has to be much better in that area.

Whiteside: A big reason why Kleber got going. You have to at least look alive and like there is a chance to might close out. Otherwise you just giving their bigs no pressure shots.

Conley: Just bad and close to zero impact.
