"Playing to get the coach fired" especially after that Game 2. Like with Monty, the league passed Vogel by at the worst possible time, like Scott Skiles and Duane Casey before them.
l don't know because they sucked on defense
They lost because Book, Beal, and the rest of the team were nowhere to be found. KD was the only one to show
Re: the mix in the locker room, I think it'll be better as long as Bud listens to his players more than Vogel and his staff did beyond babying them with the "refs suck" notion that'd happen at times. The way Vogel froze Bol for more Eubanks minutes, despite both the metrics and the on-court vibes not matching up to that commitment, and then reports coming out after the fact that the Big 3 were wholly united in making sure Bol returned this season, is why the team froze at the worst possible time despite using the hardest L10 ever as a playoff primer and coming away 7-3 with it. Tyus, Mason, and Monte seem to have a more realistic head on their shoulders about their role compared to Eubanks or EG. EG in particular was baffling in the confusion about his role especially at his age.
well believe a point guard will help to get out of stinking iso ball
Vogel was terrible
They are going to be a whole new Team with Tyus Jones🏀🙏 Great job Brendon go Suns👏
😂😂😂 bro why are u still on this topic guess it's really ain't nothing else to talk about huh
Jaden McDaniels and NAW made Booker their b****…. that is why they lost. Nothing more, nothing less.
At least part of the problem was size/length advantage the T Wolves had.
