[prodigy]

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!).

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.

Let's try to play better at home. If Luka is back, we will have to. But tonight was hard to watch. This team got talent but clearly lack of fighting spirit...

I did some research and this actually checks out you guys!

Most playoff teams do, that's for sure.

Danny Ainge gets to make all the trades and probably fire Snyder too. At least it'll be something new to talk about.

DM missed so many rotations, no way to be a true star with how he plays D.

 

[porfavors]

Corner 3 was Quin signature play many years back.

Now Quin still not defend it for 3 playoffs but he must learn why we not use that play now because how other team defend it?

 

[jom2003]

Is Conley hurt again? 0 point scored in 22 min.

 

[Jingled]

This is so true!!

Less than 100% Luka can only hurt them at this point.

In our last 16 playoff games, we have gotten a double digit lead and completely blown it in 12 of them. Our records in those 12 games is 5-7.

But it's okay because Quin Snyder assured me that this team doesn't have a problem with blowing leads.

 

[KqWIN]

The sad part about this all is how predictable it was. This has only happened for the last 3 years. Same team, same coach....why would you ever expect anything different? Every offense is an elite offense against our playoff defense.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

It's still mind-blowing to me how bad Donovan and JC can be at simply staying in front when they are both extremely athletic long guards.
