Why are they stopping the game for a clock issue?

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

WHADDAPASS! (RIP to Bill Walton)

 

[The_Jamal]

Keegan DGAF tonight

I LOVE IT

 

[hrdboild]

A good coach would tell them not to leave the line open, to help towards middle.

And just give up layups and dunks all game? That's a fan perspective. I don't think it's as easy as "just don't leave the 3pt line" for the guys on the court.

 

[coolhandluke]

That's the Keegan we need.

 

[hrdboild]

Keegan has woken up. Thank goodness!

 

[Sluggah]

I'm not super familiar with Clowney, but isn't he a spacer big? Why not keep Keegan in on him to defend the perimeter?

They put more time on the clock after the substitution

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Why are they stopping the game for a clock issue?

I believe the was a question of whether it hit the rim or not?

 

[The_Jamal]

Go away, Kevin.

He literally just finished that beautiful Fox dime. What?

And just clamped Cam Johnson. Again, what?

 

[Elektrik]

Ok Keegan. I’ll take that miss any day. Way to take it to the hoop!

 

[Kingz19]

Beautiful defense Huerter

 

[SLAB]

He literally just finished that beautiful Fox dime. What?

I posted too quickly after the awful three attempt. Deleted right away because it was rash.

 

[coolhandluke]

Looks like we can defend the 3 after all.

 

[hrdboild]

Big time block from K'Von. He's playing tall out there.

you give some contested two's, to take away open 3's

 

[gunks]

Kev is just in for defense, people!

 

[Kingz19]

Fox making some nice plays

 

[The_Jamal]

THAT'S GOOD DEFENSE COLBY

 

[hrdboild]

That was a travel on Milton. His feet hit the ground before the shot.

 

[SLAB]

Ooooooo, don’t expect that from Kev. More of that please.

 

[The_Jamal]

Colby back to back awesome defensive possessions. Love to see it

That makes sense in theory but if you watch their rotations what they're trying to do is deny easy entry into the paint to force long twos. It's not a bad concept we just don't have the personnel to execute it correctly and as a result guys are forced to leave their assignments to help more than we want.

 

[coolhandluke]

There was no need for that sub, MB.

 

[KF8]

OK u've got momentum now let's break that momentum by jacking up 3's.. that's what 3-4 missed 3's in a row? Take it inside!

 

[iowamcnabb]

That’s a shooting foul?

can only scheme based on who you have

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

In hindsight, that definitely appears to have been an ill-conceived substitution.

 

[hrdboild]

OKC has the #1 defense with a scheme that isn't all that different than ours. For as much as people have been calling out the coaching staff for the defensive scheme being whack, that points to a personnel issue for me. Not to mention it's been cold shooting which allows teams to go on big runs against us. When we're scoring at a decent clip we're able to hold our own defensively.

I mean, if you have Top-25-in-the-league defenders at every position, you can probably get away with running whatever scheme you want.

you're still talking about a team that we dont have. Again, a good staff bases its approach on the players they have

 

[Kingz19]

Threes threes and more threes
