Blazers have their tails up.

Might be time to bench Murray for awhile. Now he's getting annihilated on pnr. Let him rest and think about it.

Kayte uses “you have to realize..” far too much

His confidence is shot right now. It's making him tentative on both ends.

 

[SacTownKid]

Keep running the pick and roll at Ayton. He is terrible guarding it.

Yeah, the shooting is starting to seap into other parts of his game. Certainly not ideal

 

[SacTownKid]

His confidence is shot right now. It's making him tentative on both ends.

And now he's getting binged off hard screens to boot. That has to wear you down after awhile.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Kris Murray is 1-for-4 with three fouls, and is somehow having a better game than his brother.

 

[Kingz19]

18 turnovers in 3 quarters

Ridiculous

I’m right up close to the bench. Keegan’s confidence is shot. You can tell by his body language and the constant coaching Brown is giving him. Brown is on him harder than any other player

 

[SacTownKid]

Why, why go away from the middle pnr? Totally letting Ayton off the hook.

 

[AaronPDX]

Remember when Murray could hit the three?

 

[megapoxy]

Mike Brown 2 years ago used to co-ordinate every defense, every offense, was even making movements how the defender should be like almost like guarding the opponent himself.
This season he is like "the Chill Guy" or what's that thing that has gone viral, reminds me of Darvin Ham with the hands in his pockets. And it's not like the team performs so well that he doesn't have to indicate them what to do. Why is he so "passive"?

And also the mental wearing down is transitioning to physical. He's not bursting off those pin downs at all either. Granted the Blazers are extremely quick, but still, the legs aren't there.

 

[pdxKingsFan]

I’m having fun but this sucks.

 

[Tizzy Flip]

Ayton has sagged off most of the 3rd and clogging up the lane. Not much room to maneuver there

 

[Kingz19]

Or score a single point

Brown needs to lay off Keegan. That approach may not work with his personality.

Plenty of room to get mid range shots. The Kings run as much drop as anyone, we know what it looks like haha. The middle pick and roll forces help off the corners in a worst case.

 

[iowamcnabb]

Playing like crap, can’t get stop AND the Blazers have had shooters roll and slop drop several times. Got about 5 minutes to get this
within striking distance or all the goodwill of the wolves win is lost

 

[SacTownKid]

Technical please.

 

[pdxKingsFan]

I hate to say it but Devin Carter being a long term starter is going to make or break the offseason and save or finish this season.

 

[Kingz19]

Are you ****ing kidding me? lol

 

[The_Jamal]

Fox 5-13 for 15 points, 2 assist, 3 rebound, 4 turnovers. Just not good enough

 

[DynaPamm]

All I got is dammmmmmnnnn

 

[SacTownKid]

I hate to say it but Devin Carter being a long term starter is going to make or break the offseason and save or finish this season.

Devin Carter being a player you slot right next to Fox is something for the long term, short term, or any term. This is Brown, I wouldn't expect Carter to be starting this season regardless but you never know, hopefully the difference is clear.

 

[iowamcnabb]

I hate to say it but Devin Carter being a long term starter is going to make or break the offseason and save or finish this season.

And that could be 20-30 games before we even get to see that

 

[MizzouKing]

So if our defensive schemes leave open the three, and teams kill us repeatedly by shooting the lights out from three, at what point do we think about altering our defensive schemes?

 

[HndsmCelt]

Who knew there was a Crowder exception to the Reckless close out?

 

[hrdboild]

Fox and 4 bench guys on the floor... has Coach Brown already thrown in the towel?

EDIT: I guess that's my bad-- Ellis and Crowder are both starters now aren't they?
