Where's Cole Aldrich? Benched or hurt?

I thought Thibs new defense. Its just mindblowing that he hasn't got them playing any better defense than Sam did.


Basic dribble penetration and post ups gives them fits defensively. How do players get to this level and just have no idea how to defend?

Towns is becoming a black hole. A nice black hole to have on occasion, but a black hole nonetheless.

Fuck Towns. Fuck this team. Their scrubs know how to play basketball better than our best players.

Maybe Thibs doesn't know how to simplify his defensive concepts as its amazing that virtually an entire team hasn't improved defensively and alternatively, he might be wearing these guys out in practice causing the late game collapses. I'm spitballing but these guys are hardworkers and we should see improvement, but we haven't.

Khans said it well, we just don't play as a team. We don't pass, we don't help, we don't run the floor. It's just flat out broken.

I don't post often, but wanted to share this. This squad is heartless. Poor decisions, bad top of the Key defense, and zero movement on Offense. Plus, with the coaching style of Thibs, they reacted as if they are beaten dogs. Not looking to see a bunch of D. Greens out there beating chests and slapping the court....but show some Heart.

p.s. Rubios defense on Westbrook is horrendous. His lack of athleticism is glaring.
