You have to win close games in the clutch, and we’re incapable of doing that this season. Couple that with the bad habit of blowing leads and the one-dimensional three-point-chucking offense that’s going to be easy for any good coach to gameplan for, and it’s a recipe for playoff disaster.

Should have used it on that play that resulted in a Morris tech. Also the Barton 5 second violation that resulted in a mini me 3 was brutal!!!
The 3 PG blown layups and the Morris tech on a play that was obviously of Jokic were the difference in this game

What bothers me the most about this team is when players like Will Barton or players of the same ilk go off for 20 points when we’re supposed to be loaded with “elite” wing defenders

This Denver team is just excellent especially with Gordon now and they’ve been on a roll. It’s a wonder we weren’t down by 25 at the half. We didn’t give up, held them to 40 points in the second half, Zu was outstanding on Joker, Mann is becoming a star and isn’t near his ceiling and we were missing three key rotation players. Gotta bring in the cavalry now though. I think Rondo will unlock PG. Whatever one thinks of Westbrook PG’s best season was when he was playing with someone else who dominated the ball.

Benefitted from great system/team in San Antonio and same plus a bunch of damn luck in Toronto. He’s not what we thought we were getting when we signed him. He’s still incredible, but needs luck and better players around him then we currently have.

PG on a minutes restriction tonight plus still missing key contributors. Denver was at full display but we still one more game with them in early May and we should be closer to full strength by then right before playoffs.

Kawhi blew the game when he came in in the 4th single handedly. PG clearly not healthy and doubt he gets right before the playoffs. Glad we traded lou for a dude who might not be avail for another month.

This team will not win 4 playoff series.

It was the hustle of Zu and fearlessness of Mann that got us back into the game in the 4th.. PG and Kawhi let the team down in the clutch….again. PG looks hobbled and off balance…playing through injury. Kawhi looked gassed again at the end. Tough loss. Hopefully Rondo helps.
