    Losing to the spurs twice in one week...in very close winnable games...very frustrating.

    Also, who the heck made this schedule? Why do we have by far the toughest schedule to open this year?

    This roster sucks defensively and is a meh fit for Lebron offensively .

    It's very early but we should have sold the house for Kawhi , not one of our young players is showing enough 2 way player potential so far

    Because f*** the Lakers thats why. At least hopefully our schedule is easier down the stretch when every game matters in a tight playoff race.

    Wasn't "at least we were in it until the end" suppose to end when we got Lebron?
    Enough moral victories.

    We really have to stop choking close games down the stretch. You can say we've been in every game but we've also lost every single close game aside from one.

    Just a few from tonight:

    - Horrid rebounding
    - Terrible perimeter D
    - Awful, momentum-killing rotations
    - Having Rondo in over Zo when it counts

    Pitiful loss. Gave it away, simple as that.

    Worst loss of the season. It’s early but we’re a mess, we gotta get it together ASAP.

    Luke has to stop experimenting and solidify his rotation.

    Indeed. I keep telling myself it’s early in the season, but some of these losses are starting to get irritating. It seems like Lebron is kind of sleep walking through the end of games, not really asserting his will when it counts most. Maybe he is taking this patience thing seriously and is letting the team figure it out aside from him? I don’t know. All I know is I’m not real patient right now and we need to win some of these “winnable” games. We sure as hell need to win Wednesday because I’m not feeling real confident about the next three after based on their play right now

    I‘d like an explanation that actually makes me believe we will be better.

    Not cutting it: new team, „we just have to be better“, work harder, ...

    Interested in: what is the plan? Why does the effort suck? Why does our D suck when the excuse for our sucking O is our focus on not sucking on D?

    I wanted to unload in this thread. This loss was pathetic. If the Lakers don’t want it bad enough, I’m not wasting my time either.

    Also, LeBron is a horrible horrible ISO player... That pass to Kuz after dribbling aimlessly around for 15 seconds? FFS

    Had 104 fgas (33 of which were 3s) to their 98 (29 of which were 3s)...how does a team that shoots more shots and more 2fgs shoot half as many FT attempts?
    We had 18 TOs to their 14TOs, yet got more shot attempts....how the f*** does a an aggressive offensive team not get more foul calls?

    We're short at center, no doubt...but we gave up just 3 more offensive boards to them...yet no offensive reaches or fouls called on them.

    Some of you are reachin on the #blamegame...try reaching for the spectacles and lay off the cheeze, geez.

    #Refgate is real.

    Ok i‘m still hesitant about firing Luke but I get it.

    Just 2 questions:
    Why the lacking effort? Find it hard to blame him for that. Secondly, who do we get instead? Cant think of an enticing option.
