  1. I have almost zero faith in this team to execute in close games and it fucking sucks

  2. nimbly118

    This is the worst “5 minutes left in the game” team I’ve ever seen.

  3. aznthomastran

    I’m team tank now. This team is done

  4. interrogatories

    Okay maybe we’re not getting that clutch award

  5. theseus1234

    We don’t even deserve the 0.500 copypasta because frankly we don’t play 0.500 basketball

  6. ChurroMemes

    This team never fails to one up themselves in failure. Really impressive. But on a real note, I don’t see how this is fixable. This is starting to feel like last season again.

    When Dame is off (or injured), it feels like he just chucks hoping it’ll find itself again. I’d love to see him knuckle down and just facilitate. Take the pressure of Ant to ball handle and hopefully get him and Grant hot-handed and watch us blossom. Frustrating game

    Fire billups man.

    Sitting on his TO’s during IND massive run.

    Zero subs.

    No plays, all iso.

    Players still lost on D.

    He’s completely lost and in over his head, we need someone who’s at least competent.

    Edit: I’m aware the players missed the shots but his decisions tonight were absolutely horrendous, did zero to help that run

  9. ajmcgill

    We were at 97 points with 6:40 left in the game

    We finished with 99 points

    Went from expecting a playoff lock at minimum to a play in team to probably just losing in the play in game at this point

  11. Nerdkill789

    Dame couldn’t hit a 3 for a long time. Other teams have been playing him and Ant physical and when they don’t call it, our offense stagnates.

  12. Savagepatch_kid

    We manage to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory yet again. Go blazers.

  13. DuckDown00

    They didn’t get a FG for the final 7+ minutes.

    Wtf.

  14. hyperextension

    When do we think the locker room turns on Chauncey

  15. BrownSol

    There was a point in this season where even when we lost the games were so fun to watch because of the hustle and drive of this team. It feels like we lost that dawg mindset. Only person that was fun to watch tonight who demonstrated that was Jabari.

  16. terrordactylz

    Giving up a 15-2 run to close this game not even a week after giving up a 16-2 run to end the game against the Warriors

  17. bigtrackrunner

    Dame and Simons have looked really bad against teams that aren’t horrible lately

  18. Witty-Version-713

    Worsrt part is Grant won’t want to be here anymore

  19. What’s up with the body language? They don’t look as together as they were

  20. Bieberkinz

    At this point, give more minutes to Bari and Shaedon, give them more experience. Get we’re injured and the rotation ain’t ideal but I rather have those guys get time to develop

  21. TheRipCity

    I’m ready for the Scotty Brooks redemption arc

  22. GuyIncognito211

    Webanyama is going to rule on this roster

  23. FeatherlessFerret

    Not a single field goal in the last 7 minutes. That’s not great.

  24. Apeturetester

    These last few games have been the worst stretch of Dame’s career, especially since he’s become a perennial all star.

    The chemistry has felt off since those OKC btbs. Those games were so incredibly infuriating it’s felt like there’s been a cloud over them since. Chauncey really doesn’t feel good enough, at least not yet. I could see him being a good coach eventually, but he isn’t this year.

    This team is honestly really talented, but the vibes are off. I think they can push through and be good again, but it might be too late.
    They’ve been frustrating all year and I don’t expect that to change anytime soon, I just wish there was more fun moments mixed in. Ah well. JG for all star tho
