6 game winning 3s that season and I saw every last one live.
I thought at the end..we need Kobe. |
Kobe was automatic on them that year but if I recall correctly he never made another one after that season. |

"Easy decision" okay name a better and fantastic coach available right now that is fantastic at Xs and Os and adjustments, and also go into WHY they'd be a better fit for the team and why their style of coaching on both ends fits the team.

He had a monster season, and showed up every game on both ends, so I think he is used to that |

So I don't know. I can see both sides of the argument I don't know what an investigation would do because the game is over. The whole thing was frustrating the referee was bad all game. Not just that point. But also we only got that opportunity because that T Wolf person made that super stupid foulthat allowed us to get FTs I mean you know what I mean? it's just we lost. Alas. We just lost.

| At least they're not losing by 20+ anymore to the elite teams, silver lining I guess. |

And the refs were only bad when it benefitted the Timberwolves.

DLO gave us a Fisher charge and cost his tailbone. Which got them a turnover and gave us a chance to keep the game close, which we did.
That all said, I'd feel a LOT better with DLO, Reaves and/or Rui in at crunch time over Reddish or Prince.

| I think the toe on the line burns me up way less than when AD blocked them and Bron went down and got hit by 3 guys on a two hand dunk and was knocked down and told play on |

Or the Vando "flop"
Or Austin missing 6 straight very makeable shots
Or AD missing both free throws
Or even the Gobert charge on Austin. That would've meant a dead ball and probably timeout to draw up a play (unclear if that would've yielded a better outcome lol) |

Instant replay showed Edwards hit LeBron in the head on that too, the ref right there didn't do a thing.
Meanwhile you watch Minni go to the basket and barely get touched and the refs are quick to blow the whistle or delayed whistle for them.

Rui started in place of cam this year already so what you said doesn’t make sense. He’s playing 3 small forwards next to Bron and AD. Rui is a 3 too and was even in Washington when he and Kuzma were together |

Yeah, Ant got a super weak whistle on his last free throws too.
The L2M is gonna piss people off. It is what it is, you gotta do better with what you control. |

That was a 3
That Rob Perez guy is dumb because it doesn’t matter when the ball left his hand, it only matters when he jumps. If the front foot showed space in between, it is a 3. It is humanly impossible for the front of the shoe to tough the line or he would’ve tripped. It is common sense that human can’t push up with the toe(maybe ballot artists can do it) |

If this team had gathered within itself and made decisions by voting, I think the starting five that made it to the conference finals last year would have chosen to try at least once. Or some of the players would have felt that Reaves should have played more than 29 minutes and preferred to remain on the bench.
So actually even an empty chair would do the job better than Ham. Because of Ham's ridiculous rotation, the workload that Lebron and Davis are shouldering will soon cause them to get injured. And we won't even have to look for a coach for this season. |

Only because Conley missed a super clean look himself. |

It’s not the small forwards, it’s vando and cam can’t shoot, this reminds of me of the 3-4 guard lineups he used to play, it’s one thing to go small, it is another that the smalls can’t shoot. I guarantee you GS can make a lebron at the 5 lineup work. |
