    This was always going to be as tough a game as you’ll find on the schedule. We’ll bounce back. My biggest worry right now is that our bench seems to lack an identity and any kind of scoring besides Naz. They looked like that through the win streak too. I hope we can figure it out because we need that depth.

    Well, we weren’t going to win 80 games. 79 it is.

    18.5% from 3pt land

    But hey, they were 100% from FT shots until Josh Minot missed one in garbage time.

    mental midgets were burnt out mentally

    What happened to the Conley/Gobert pnr, or the Conley playing PG at all story?

    Why does our team offense have to de-evolve the same night as the defense?

    Can they trade Garza for Bol Bol? He can be our #2 PG. Neither team uses either of them anyway.

    Maybe the game would have been better if Beal did play. He might have mucked up their offense a little.

    KAT gets 12k career pts.

    SLO MO gets 600 Career Steals.

    Schedule loss. On to the next one.

    We need to shoot more threes. Tonight a great example of what three point shooting can do for you.

    When we move the ball we get open three point looks but there needs to be an effort to get more looks from distance.

    It was a no fight loss. The kind of thing top 5 teams are well known for…

    Number 1 defense looked like number 31 defense today.

    Burn the tape and move on to New Orleans. Only guy to show up was KAT.

    The offense has been shit the last three games. Sort of coincides with Kat trying to beast on offense. Which includes him on ball so much on so many possessions either doing his thing or making the do or die one pass. His 3pt shot was working better in prior games. It certainly wasn’t tonight on the first 4 attempts so he quick shooting 3s. (concerned about ruining his percentage any further?) Well I’m sorry Kat, but if you aren’t going to attempt 3s, then you don’t belong in the offense.

    The offense becomes Kats turn, then Ants turn. Barely any Conley running the offense at all. Which means barely any highIQ decisions being made, just living or dieing by Ant and Kat makes or misses. And tonight that meant a lot of failed drives.

    Only seven 3pt attempts tonight total from Kat/Ant. But the offense centers around those two for 3.75 quarters.

    Suns matchup scares me, I know it’s a b2b not too worried bout the loss but booker always kills us and that team is kind of built to wreck us with 2 point jumpers and 3s

      Actually Booker’s +/- tonight was 0, he was on the floor when we made the little comeback in the 4th then they subbed him off for Durant and that iced it…

      I really thought it was Durant and all their role players hitting 3s that was just too much for us tonight. Obviously on top of the fact it was back-2-back road games on a tough road trip.

      On the plus side, we had only 6 TOs and gave up only a handful of Oreb (then again they didnt miss much :D), but these were areas of improvement.

    As a bulls fan, love watching you guys and are basically my second team to support. They looked tired for sure and can’t blame them. Not that the calls would have made a difference, but man they missed a handful tonight

    This is one of those games where resting a guy or two is probably the move. As a morale stabilizer and to get a look at some bench depth guys
