You gotta have a stopper who can get you back on track and minimize the damage. We didn't have that tonight and don't most nights.


Rubio and DLo as a tandem hasnt worked all year, and Ryan keeps going back to it. We scored 18 points in the 4th, even with the lack of stops it was the shitty offense that Ricky and Rubio run together out there. This is on Ryans clever substitutions again.

It's all on Ryan?


If you keep forcing something that has never worked then yes. Being cute with substitutions is amateur. I pin this one on Ryan, but if youre saying that a nee coach wont stop the bleeding youre right on that point.

That was so pathetic it's forced me to post. So unbelievable yet so damn predictable.

Everyone blaming Dlo? sure he was garbage, and the hero ball act was a joke. At least when Jimmy did it he was a tad bit more effective. This is all on Saunders though. What in the hell is that man doing?. How in the fukk do you let that happen? In what world is having Dlo and Ricky closing out a game a good idea?. Did Ant touch the ball at all when he came back in the game?. He waited to long to get the bench out of there which was "lead" by Rubio and he still kept him out there to end the game lol.

If anybody should've been given the green light to play hero ball it was Beasley, who's been the most reliable player we've had this year. Hell Ant should've gotten the go ahead to do that with the way he's played lately. I can't believe he let this happen play after play. Did he think having Dlo take all the shots was the way to go? Did he give them different instructions and the players (Dlo) just ignore him? Either he's a dumbass or a pushover.

You can't give up the run they gave up in the 4th and win.

You can't win shooting 11 fucking free throws and consistently giving up 2.5 to 3x that per game.

Get fined. Bitch. Get kicked out. We have to start getting calls

Or did DLO just not run the plays? We really don't know. Ryan was just part of the problem.


I'm pretty sure they run more set plays when Rubio is running the point (without DLO) than when DLO is the main ball handler. I think it's basically 5 out with a read-and-react game when DLO is out there.

Rubio played very well on and off ball when he was paired with Booker. The problem is that DLO is far worse and too selfish to play with Rubio.

100% Agree.

Yes. Yes we know. All you had to do was watch the off ball action of which there was none.

We ran a pick to get dlo the ball and clear (to avoid the double-team).

The worse we play, the more he dribbles



Any chance we can leave him in San Antonio? I don't want this guy on the team. Yeah, Rubio was bad too, but dlo was terrible. All he does is hero ball and he even got totally bailed out on a couple calls. Nowell and jmac should be in there over Russell. Just move the ball and give the iso plays to edwards
