One of the most pathetic blown lead loses I've ever witnessed.
From up 23 towards the end of the 3rd Q?
Outscored 35-11 during the 4th Q?
Lost by 9 points?
All you can do is laugh. Not even with being upset about anymore. I just can't wait for next year already.
It was criminal to keep Evan Fournier on the floor during their entire comeback win. Evan Fournier played 35 minutes with only 4 points off 1-13 shooting with ATROCIOUS DEFENSE? ðŸ¤ðŸ˜…ðŸ¤
But yet Cam Reddish was stuck to the bench despite 6 points in only 14 minutes and 4/4 from FT? And also played great D?
That's criminal.
Oh well. Can't wait for the draft.

It happens every single game.
They couldn't hit a shot in the 4th, but that is bad coaching, once again. Push the pace all 4 quarters. Ridiculous.
Because never pass the ball to Grimes, your best shooter? Fournier was also cold as ice not touching the ball. Iso Randle is a death by 1,000 cuts in the 4th Q.

Um.
Evan Fournier 4 points, 35 minutes, 1-13 shooting. Atrocious Defense.
He single handedly blew the game.
I love that Randle is playing like last years Randle again but ISO basketball is a cancer. It is one of the main reasons why I wanted to trade him. Also finally getting a PG would have been the icing on the cake.

We just followed the best win in the season to the worst loss in the season … this one is strictly on thibs for his stubbornness and the fact we have a guy who jumps through the F u cking roof but no I’m gonna play taj because I can’t give the back up center role to a real nba player in obi

4th quarter things always change with this team. They stop running and do the iso thing. I’ll never understand it.

What exactly are you expecting him to do in 7 minutes? By the time he gets warmed up he is back on the bench.
Good Randle only knows how to play one way. He will be a legend on the Shanghai Sharks but he is never winning a playoff series

Hit a shot, he is useless in a half court set.
And he doesn’t rim protect either, his entire offense 2 years in the league is just fast break points.
He’s looking like a tweener who can’t shoot.

28 points.
16 rebounds.
6 assists.
8/20 (.400%).
Dude played his heart out.
Hey. How did Evan Fournier do tonight? 🤔

It seems like everyone on the team is useless in half court. That is the reason why we lose every game. Maybe play the people who always try to push the pace. Just a suggestion.

You see, you are on Randles jock so hard you can’t see the other four players on the court and how they are reacting to Randles hero ball.
I thought we were in good shape after surviving the 3rd quarter of doom. We were rolling and you can start to feel a little bit good about ending this road trip with 2 wins. Then the 4th quarter happened. Outscored 35-11. After we scored 39 in the 3rd we score 11 in the 4th LMAO! This team just has the craziest meltdowns and has no resiliancy when things get tough. It's a team of weak mental toughness and plays scared. At this point, it's just stupid to get upset. It's a bad team that has also been poorly coached. I love Thibs but he's had some really awful games this season where he makes no adjustments and doesn't seem to have any answers. We just gotta ride it out these last 25 games. Nothing else we can do.

I know one thing.
He played much better last year.
Before being stuck and forced to play alongside the worst Defensive backcourt within NBA history of All-Time in Kemba Walker and Evan Fournier.
His starting PG and starting SG ruined his once promising team.
The real question thibs needs to answer is why Gibson who he’s willing to play out of position for long stretches at Center but won’t touch obi who literally played center in college and I’m 100% confident could do everything taj can do but better … why thibs? Why? One guy you don’t play actually has a future on this team for years the other probably won’t be in the nba next year
Kemba needs to be bought out. 1 or 2 more vets need to be sat. This season is a waste. We need to see what the kids can do. Love Taj but Obi getting 7 minutes in a wasted season is not acceptable.
You guys are missing the point. That was a masterclass in tanking. You have to be the Coach of the Year to lose a game where your team was up 92-79 with 10 minutes to go and you then you lose by 9 points.

Toppin can't shoot, has no handle, and provides no rim protection. I just don't see why he is a must play.
Oh well. It felt good to vent but it is what it is. We're just not a playoff team this year.
Hopefully we have a good draft
This guy is so much like me. While the Knicks win we still look for red flags. He pointed them out last game and they bit us in the butt this game.
