Added to Calendar: 04-21-22

This team is just wrong build. We associated one guy who is only a shooter ( and really poor defender) with another guys who can't shoot but is a really good defender. Plus the player around are pretty bad in defense. The team is just not balanced + weak mental... recipe for not getting anything.
 
Rudy Gobert played 30 minutes.

He got 7 rebounds the whole game. And his man shot 4-5 from 3 in the first half.

If you think our issue is Donovan Mitchell, you really need to wake up. Playoff basketball is built around Donovan. I wish big men were still a thing, but they just aren't

Does “playoff basketball “ include getting absolutely torched by Spencer Dinwiddie in back to back plays?
 
Enter Conley and Royce. Game over

Conley had a good game offensively but there is no one that he can guard. My biggest problem with the Conley trade was knowing how small our backcourt would be. It's just way too small.
Royce just sucks
 
What's the difference between Conley and Carmelo Anthony/LaMarcus Aldridge at this point?

He could legit be playing for some big market team off the bench on a min contract somewhere if DL didn't pull that stupid move in 2019 to get him.
 
Kleber is 14-18 from 3 in the last two games.

Brunson is averaging 32.5 pts, 5 assists, and is shooting 49 % FG and 50 % from 3 in this playoff series.
 
This comeback could have been the turnaround we needed.

I have no idea what we will get next game. Small ball that worked? Or the same things that lost us these last two games..

Maybe we bring it back with a new coach who actually emphasizes defense. I will be honest, I do want to give Mitchell and some of these other players an opportunity to play under a coach who does that before I say blow it up (unironically).
Quin SNyder has coached #1 defensive teams in the past. Is it more likely he doesnt emphasize defense or the roster he has cant play defense?

Just get rid of everyone to be safe. There is a stench from this that can't be undone. Everything has to go.

DedEx, Uncle Jeff, Ed Davis. Tony Bradley, Rayjohn Tucker, NWG and the minivan all send their love to Quin.
 
I'm done with quin. I was pretty much done with him after the clippers series but tonight was the nail in the coffin.
#bringbackcorbin. At least he could make an adjustment to his tie.
