Combined, Tyrese and Fox have a 17/1/3 line in 35 min. Just not gonna get it done from your "two best players," even on efficient shooting.
 
Luke tried to get more touches for Haliburton but in the end, the kid's just not ready for it/in a funk and all it's really done is made our best player less effective.

He's a role guy, it might not be who he is. Some games he can do it but yeah, as a full time gig, no. What a waste of what he is. He happens to be a great off the ball option. Fox creates, Haliburton shoots/creates as a 2nd option. It's so easy on paper.
 
Barnes said that defense starts with energy, and we haven't shown energy. WHY THE HELL NOT??? They have had plenty of rest. So why no energy? Are they looking for a coaching change already?

To be honest. An energy defense is the one Bobby used in summer league. Pressure, aggression. Walton is again using a defense based more on positioning and timing when it comes to help.
 
Hali is definitely not in the "two best" players category right now, the other would be Barnes

The list of aggressive offensive players that will put pressure on defenses as a natural instinct are Fox, Buddy, somewhat Barnes, and TD. And that's it. Some to a fault BTW but if that's what they are looking for they are looking in the wrong direction here.
 
Fox forces it into the paint even though Holmes dragged his defender into the paint for some reason. Misses the extra point.
 
Tied game as Tyrese blocks CP3 on one end and hits a loooooong floater over Ayton on the other. (Seriously, that floater was from like 20 feet away)
