oh my god
Pels not valuing the ball with some of these turnovers and allowing offensive rebounds. Only reason the game is close.
Good process otherwise, though. Enjoyed seeing the lineups with multiple shooters instead of just 1. Ingram taking 3s helps so much. He made more in that first quarter than he did in the previous six games combined.

There's many awful things about the coach's challenge but the most awful one is that they can claim the challenge was unsuccessful because of something that happened prior to the whistle. Are you reviewing the actual call you made or what?
A clean block was called wrongfully, but the challenge was unsuccessful because there was "foot-to-foot contact" 2 seconds prior.

By diehard Go To PostI thought they called that successful, letting the coach keep the challenege and TO, but then "corrected" the call?NOPE. They said unsuccessful challenge and they gave Mikal freethrows and Billups lost the second challenge.
Meanwhile an obvious grab on the wrist on the review is a "clean steal".

Imagine 50% of the live NBA games you have been to involving him.
By Kabro Go To PostDlo upping this stock value before the deadline.
I saw it as him remembering he is on the block and trying to play himself off.
By reilo Go To Post
That was wild.
I would like to know what Kareem was at by the end and where he still stands.
By Kabro Go To PostFor every laker win is just one more day delayed to ham getting fired
Did that bum really put AD back in to try and get a triple double?
Please make a deep playoff run Pels because if the fans are doing this on a Wednesday night against the Hornets, I can't imagine what it would be like for the 2nd round or CF:

More like “All-NBA” defender Spencer Dinwiddie, yeah? Bad close out on the double team, Simons saw it a mile away.
Fun end to the game last night.

Dinwiddie is a trash dog
By Kabro Go To Postis there anyone here that actually doesn't hate their coach?Doc Rivers was my last coach.
Nurse is Thibsian w/ his lineups but it is a breath of fresh air to see a coach at least try shit even if its dumb shit
By Kabro Go To Postis there anyone here that actually doesn't hate their coach?As long as Willie continues getting better, I'm ok with him. He takes too long to adjust lineups, imo, but he generally gets guys to play and doesn't run the most archaic shit and he seems to help with player development.
The biggest complaints I have with him right now is leaning too much on Nance to close games and his insistence on running lineups without at least two of Ingram, CJ, Trey, and Hawkins (when they are all available.).
My only regular complaint about Chauncey is giving Scoot way too much rope when he's screwing up- and that's probably a thing that actually isn't entirely in his control. Higher ups pushing to make that kid a star ASAP and he's years away from that.
For instance, last night when he brought the ball up and turned it over on the first pass 3 of 4 possessions that led to run outs. Just gross but for some reason he's still out there instead of getting talked to.

He pulled him last night for the rest of the game after those 3 godawful turnovers in the 3rd quarter.

Be easier to list a fanbase that does... if such a fanbase exists

Some of the discourse around Ayton missing the game last night is just gross. Protip: Portland (rightly) doesn't have snow removal equipment really, and the issue is that everything was a sheet of ice, not snow. I imagine his driveway is a very long, nice, steep hill that you probably couldn't have gotten a side-by-side up yesterday or anything else without a winch- if there was something to tie onto. Plus the gate was probably frozen shut.
Deadspin just earned a "never reading this crap again" vote, not that I look at them often as is.

That Deadspin article sure was something. It even included a line about Neil Olshey being "cancelled".
People couldn't even get to Ayton's house, so how is he supposed to get to anywhere else? I have a coworker that will be without power for two weeks because the utility company just shrugged their shoulder.
Also, the West Hills of Portland where he lives goes from anywhere 100 feet below sea level to 1,600 feet above.

Sometimes I hate Thibs, and sometimes I don’t.
We had Derek Fisher, Hornacek, Fizdale. Rambis was coach for like 20 games.
Thibs and Mike Woodson are the only winning coaches I’ve ever known. Hard for me to hate them even if I think others would be better
