    You’re completely missing the point. What I’m saying is that all of the extra reasons people are throwing out as to why we are losing are silly. Monty can’t get up at a presser after the 14th loss and say “honestly, we just kinda suck at shooting and if we shot 35% from 3 and made our ft’s this game, we would have won.”

    It’s just been a shitty stretch of mostly poor shooting and high TO’s. One of the few games we did shoot really well from 3 against GSW, we ended up taking 17 fewer shots than the Warriors because we somehow gave up 17 ORB’s and of course had more TO’s.

    We’ve only shot better than our opp from 3 this year in 5 games. We won 2 of those, 1 was to the aforementioned Warriors, another was against Portland who shot 33 FT’s to our 11.

    This team has 2 problems. We’re shooting poorly and we don’t take care of the ball. Lineups, effort, rotations, grit, Him-ness, etc… is all secondary.
