Another game lost because of poor shot selection and lack of assertiveness. The Nuggets ran a Jokic post up for what looked like 5 possessions in a row in the late 4th (between 2:30 and 0:49), turning 102-98 into 104-109 real quick. A phantom call gave the Clips a 108-111 comeback, but they still couldn’t create a good look from 3.

Ik it sounds like an overreaction to one game, but this isn’t even the first instance of a situation like this happening for them, yet we’re only 6 games into the Harden experience. They just can’t click together against great defenses.

Do you just keep going and hope the dominoes fall into their respective spots? Do you trade one of them to try another experiment? Do you trade ‘em all and blow it up?

    Every time I think things are bad, I see the clippers and the Grizzlies and realize how much worse it can be.

    First off figure out whether the Kawhi we’ve seen so far is just the “real” him now

    If it is then literally nothing else matters and they’re doomed lol

    All the Westbrook/Harden noise is ignoring that their “top 5 when healthy” player IS healthy and playing like a top 50 player instead

    This team looked better before the Harden trade. Sorry, it is what it is.

    I dont believe kawhi is washed yet, he played very well against the lakers. But hes far from toronto kawhi or even 2020 when he’s consistently the best player on the floor every game. This team goes as far as kawhi takes them, pg is great but he cant be the number one guy. Its either kawhi or harden that leads this team imo
