Was serious ********… Collin was trying hard to get open and the defender was face guarding and holding him… Dok couldn’t find anyone else and held the ball for 7 of the 8 seconds… Collin gets a grenade… Hardy needs to chill the **** out. Can’t watch JCs infinite mistakes and get pissed at Collin for that.
 
Dok messed up for sure on that, but he was left in a ****** position. There was only one Pacer giving pressure and Sexton could've just sprinted away from him, instead he went right into him. Also, everyone else had sprinted away. Lauri noticed what was going on but casually took like two steps back instead of actually providing an option.

Not sure what they showed on TV, but Dok was getting an earful as well. I think Hardy relies on Alex Jensen to work with Dok, but Hardy seems to have a bigger/better relationship with the guards. Last night, for example, he was constantly talking to THT/Clarkson/Sexton.

Have others that go to the games noticed this as well?

It looked like he yelled and clapped at Collin for the 8 second call. He goes at Sexton hard… which I get but needs some better balance. He does not seem to have as short a leash or temper with KO or JC when they make dumb mistakes.
 
I have some criticisms of Collin, but generally expect his jumpers and 3s to go in, he does not force jumpers, and I have a much higher level of confidence of him scoring at the rim than I did wirh Donovan Mitchell.

I really don’t know why he goes so hard unless he knows that he can be extremely good but that doesn’t add up with reports from the media.

Sexton definitely seems to push his buttons, but I think Hardy believes in him. Last night he kept running plays for him in the clutch, even after he had made some mistakes.

My point I was making was that just because he was yelling at Sexton instead of Dok doesn't necessarily mean he blamed him vs Dok. They both got an earful, it just seems like Hardy has a division of labor with his coaching staff.

Yes, people just love to cry if someone is hard on their pet player.

I don't think Hardy sees any future in Dok, so why waste his breath?

Nah man you cant just look at stats, you have to watch the games. Then you see he gives a **** on defense, hustles and locks in every possession. But you cant just watch the games, you have to look at the results in the stats. But you cant just do one of those or the other, keep doing all of this until you ultimately decide he sucks and reinforce the bias you came in with.

It's pretty simple.

Lmao.

Yes, Sexton sucks on defense. It doesn't mean every game and every possession is bad. Anyone trying to argue otherwise is being obtuse.

Also defensive tracking for things like primary defender is wonky. Plus raw "player x had 5/10 shots made on him as the primary defender" doesn't really say anything about the quality of defense being played.
