Game Debrief: What Went Right And What Went Wrong?

I think it goes to quality depth, and never letting up attacking the opponent. But wow, the separation is



we are WAY back there

 

I think the bench scoring point lacks complexity and isn’t painting the correct picture. We’ve had all of our starters miss time:

Lebron - 16 games
Luka - 7 games
Reaves - 11 games
Rui - 7 games

As a result we’ve had Smart and LaRavia who are our most important bench players starting. Both are averaging 10pts but that doesn’t count toward the bench when they’re starting. Our other bench players who can score are Gabe who is injured, Knecht who is lost and Hayes who is a backup C.

TL/DR: it’s a stupid metric, we’ve had our starters injured so our best bench players (Smart and LaRavia) are starting and not contributing to our bench pts total, and the other bench players are disappointing in Gabe and Knecht.

Another point is, we could just as easily out Reaves and Rui to the bench and have a better points total. Doesn’t really change the outcome.

 

It's hard to win NBA games playing 1 on 5, therfore, we should have sat Luka for this one.

 

Easy to predict loss.

Such an odd team: every loss has been by double digits but also we're undefeated in the clutch.

Good job Luka. Thanks for trying.

 

Well..we aren't really that good without Lebron Austin and Rui

 

With Dalton and Gabe they kinda of expected more than 9 out of 39 3 points shots

 

Bottom line is we gotta move DK, Gabe and Maxi. 3 deadwood roster spots.

 

glad I didn't watch the predictable outcome

not good to hear about LeSciatica tho

 

Lakers lose to SA

I would say look at our 3 point shooting at 23%

But SA shot 16%

But they shot only 25 3's

We shot 39

If it's not working do something else and don't live at the 3 line

 

Spurs have more rotation-caliber players than us even if we're healthy and we were far from healthy last night.

 

Hard not to shoot 3’s when Wemby is in the paint.

 

At this point, this is exactly what I expected from these two.
They have shown they can’t be relied upon.
Oh well, on to the next game.
