Kornet is a max effort guy. He always looks like a 6’0” starting pitcher in the bottom of the 7th inning in July.

A lot of good basketball has now gone to waste. Time to focus, boys—-keep the movement on offense

Honestly no idea how you don’t call timeout at the quick 7-0. To allow it to get to a -15 and counting is wild. Might as well not bring Jaylen back in.

Because he’s not good. He’s an assistant coach way the fuck out of his depth.

It’s not exclusively a timeout thing is more like it. Coaches can and often do coach!
Its funny how many coaching experts are experts we have here across sports. NBA, NFL, MLB, NHL...how do all these people become proficient in how to coach all these professional sports?

Serious question do you not believe in momentum in basketball at all? Is Mazzulla the one genius who has figured it out?

I watch a lot of NBA basketball like many of you. I don't see the timeout issues that many here see and there is no data to support that Mazzulla's style is hurting the team.

Its literally the same people complaining about it and the funny thing is they end up winning most of the games.

The team really needs more from Jrue.
For 2.5 quarters he was doing it when they needed it - but this quarter he hasn’t been able to get them to drop. And yeah, they need an other creator beyond Jaylen and neither Jrue or White has been able to do it, really

I was very down on Joe last year, and I think he’s a lot better this year—-overall, and in terms of using TOs. He’s a bit more conservative than I might be, but I don’t think he’s outside the normal NBA coach range At all at this point

White and Holiday are a combined 8-31. That and the turnovers, it's kind of amazing they aren't down by more.

I’m all for complaining about losses and do more than my fair share, but not tonight if they can’t pull it out. 4th Q bricks on the second night of the back to back isn’t that surprising. Missing a bunch of guys. We’ll see what happens but no shame if they drop this one.

Joe probably sucks but don’t think his TO usage moves the needle that much.
