It's hardly even 1v5. It's dribble the ball 30 ft from the bucket and put up a contested 3 at the end of the shot clock. At least a true hero baller would try to get to the bucket.

Agreed

We look like a team on the 2nd night of a back to back

No gas in the tank at the end of the game.

We really missed teague tonight.

Live or die by Butler. 1-7 in the 4th. He needs to make more of an effort to involve his teammates, even when he's feeling it. Exciting game. We should have had it.

Crawford was a -22 gross

This loss is on the bench and specifically Crawford. His -22 doesn't even do justice to how bad he was. Pretty much single handedly tanked a huge lead with just terrible basketball.

Same boat. We have one games with our vets. Tonight they killed us butler and Crawford 9 of 28

Game turned when Wiggins got hurt and we never recovered.

This team will not develop running 6 or 7 players and refusing to close games with the movement that gets you leads. I would have rather lost and spread the minutes out.

I'm not expecting to win all of our games, but I do expect some sense of decency and logic regarding playing time.

I wonder why Milwaukee blew right by us in the 4th?
