    Luke playing Deng too much. Not playing Mozgov. Sitting Russell when he was hot as long as he did. Just a bad night for Luke. As players have growing pains so do coaches. He'll learn from it.

    We have to start cutting down on our turnovers. We lead the league and so many of them are unforced.

    Bad loss .

    This one is on Luke , 3 key bad decisions imo:

    - JC was hot and didn't finish the 1st half

    - Should have sticked with Ingram on Barnes , bothered him with his length on 2 of his 3 shots then Barnes caught fire against others defenders

    - Playing Deng 30 minutes, 2nd most minutes on the team

    Deng, Calderon, MWP - bad night for these vets. Putting in Calderon and MWP was a "huh?" move at least in hindsight. Still we should have survived those decisions. It mostly came down to careless and unorganized defense on their wings who burned us.

    Russ and Randle need to do a better job of protecting the ball, too casual with it and forcing stupid turnovers.

    Some very questionable decisions from Luke this game, Carlisle won the chess match.

    We really need Nance back. Back to reality with this one.

    Had trouble breaking the zone and couldn't defend the pick and roll yesterday.

    Overall noticed a low effort game from everyone but JC.

    And Thomas Robinson is a D-leaguer version of Kwame Brown. Holy crap.

    Not having Nance really did throw a lot of things off, our bench wasn't as good and our defense already gives up a lot of points, so with us not scoring a lot we're gonna lose.

    We were in the game all the way and even took the lead in the 4th quarter, we had no answer for Barnes and Seth curry. They played harder and we didn't simple as that. I see us winning tomorrow and bouncing back

    WTF!! .... Did Gilbert and Stern get in bed with each other naked again in putting our early schedule together this year trying implode and bury us for good?

    Check it. After the quality of teams we already have had to face contained in just the 1st 10 games, including the Warriors, OKC, Houston, Hawks and Dallas ..... after MN today on the back to back, we have a slight breather with Nets at home on Tuesday, then Spurs next Friday, Bulls Sun the 20th, Thunder on Tues, Warriors on the back to back up there Wed, Warriors again at home Friday 2 days later and Hawks on Sunday the 27th, then back on the road with Pelicans again on Tue the 29th, Bulls back to back the 30th, Raptors Friday Dec 2 and Grizzlies back to back on Sat the 3rd.

    Yeah I had the same reaction when looking at the same schedule. It's time to prove the doubters wrong fellas. On the bright side, we'll have an easier schedule later on and by then this team will have even more playing time together, gelling.
