    I blame @Big Mamma Jamma for jinxing us, still blowing a 15pt lead with 6 mins to go hurts and feels like last season.

    Very bad loss , a win would have bought one more game of rehab for Lebron

    chokejob...especially at the line again.

    I said before the season that the awful FT shooting will bite us in the arse and it already has a few games. But the FO seems to be perfectly fine with the hot garbage they have put together from the FT line...

    can't be 100% sure, but i'm about 90% sure we could have moved him several times for allstar-quality players over the last three years--starting prior to actually making that pick.

    the fact that we held him out of paul george talks was unconscionable, imo.

    Tough loss that really dampens some good performances by Kuz and Ball.

    First loss of the season that really pissed me off. Totally collapsed down the stretch and wasted good games from Kuz and Lonzo.

    BTW the Cavs (a championship team) were 4-23 without Lebron. They had 2 allstars in Love and Kyrie. In the Eastern conference.

    Anything over .500 in his absence with this young team would be amazing.

    To me it's an incomplete. If he ends up netting us AD all is forgiven in my book.

    why do we not have play calling or set plays late into the game? Even with James around it felt like every close game we slow down and just revert to ISO's

    I would like him to change that. He has out of timeout plays. It seems like instead of relying on a young team to be a free flowing style read and react squad that relies too much on ball stopping vets, that we should also have some set plays that we go to.

    It just seems crazy that we don't have anything that resembles a system.

    almost the whole league, really. i'm waiting for the analytics craze to finally overtake this odd trend. i mean, if you think pounding the ball for 18 seconds, then trying a half-assed high screen and roll is your best option, run it every time down like houston does. if not, do whatever helped you score the other 112 points.

    Kinda makes you miss Jerry Sloan, whose motion offense was beautiful to watch with Stockton executing.

    I don't know if it's been mentioned here already, but as much as the missed free throw really stung us, the bigger screw-up was not executing the 2 for 1 at the end there.
