Agree with the bad screen but where is the creativity at all from thibs.

I really can't stand watching this team. They remind me of my middle school team. They just get out there, dribble and shoot. I still like our talent but we're horribly coached.

My wife and I made the same comment to each other about Towns - probably at the exact time you were writing your post. :).

The body language on that screen was crazy bad. It was almost like he was physically pouting that he wasn't first option.

You have to know you action if the first play doesn't work, Towns didn't even care.

The thing I don't understand is that we (unexpectedly) ran that one nice set that led to a Jimmy dunk. Then it just went back to clear outs and bad shots.

Butler was tremendous for most of this game. But he's not LeBron or Kyrie or Durant. He isn't THAT good of an isolation player where he can create a shot out of nothing. It worked against the Clippers, but not tonight and not most nights.

Both Thibs the coach and Thibs the GM aren't performing. You can't help but blame our woeful 4th quarters on player fatigue. And if Thibs doesn't have faith going deeper in to the rotation then he has failed as GM putting together this roster.

Chandler isn't that much of a factor. Meanwhile Tyreke Evans is playing like a very expensive player but he was signed very cheap. Regardless it's a disappointing loss and the way it went down at the end with Memphis basically letting us have it the last couple minutes was pretty sad.

Exactly. He has only himself to blame for our lack of depth. We're missing Bjelly - one guy. They are missing Conley, Parsons, and God knows who else. Yet we labor and have to burn out our starters just to keep it close. Imagine if we played the Clippers OR the Grizzlies full strength!? We would have been spanked both nights.
