To be fair. The rims did him wrong and was punishing them by hitting them where it hurts.

Wish we ran more plays, period. A lot of standing around. It's either a PNR or one on one as the shot clock winds down.
We run NO backdoor cuts, ever.
Hard to do that with Elfrid "dribble dribble dribble" Payton at the helm
Thibs & Woodson have to have a sit-down with Payton, D.Rose, Quickley, and Randle on having several-plays for their teammates on offense when they lead the point. No more hero-ball leading the point.
We could use more ball-movement, player-movement without the ball, and better standing-screen/picks during our tough midseason schedule.
We need to working on the above throughout our next ten games vs all our top-team opponents, and bottom-team opponents.
Win or Lose .. We have a decent amount of scorers (Randle, RJ, Rose, IQ, Burks, and Knox) in our rotation to design several ball-movement plays for each of them to score a easy 2 pts. The reckless 3 ball shooting in the first half of the game need to stop.

This has been our problem it seems ever since Riley skipped town. And with a stagnant unimaginative offense you don’t only score less, but allow the opposing team to save more energy on defense and beat you by remaining fresher later in a game.

This is true. Thibs offense will be put to the test in the playoffs once again.

That is not an excuse in the NBA. His shot has no arc and when that happens you rely on luck. When you have the proper amount of arc, “shooters touch” is a result of skill, not luck. Payton never developed that.
