Nah... He's getting carried by talent. Watching the x and o, player development, time out and clutch management/ 0-25 when trailing the fourth/ terrible plays out of the timeout/ Don't run high level offense

It's bad. This 5 out offense is completely busted and fundamentally flawed without coaching up BB IQ and player development being weak.

Hire a Chris Quinn and the floor will instantly go up 7 levels

Yeah, if the game is 100% over after 3 quarters if you aren't winning is the biggest red flag.

I don't want a "player's coach". I want a new young mind who is going to demand a alot from it's stars, and is not afraid to sit underperforming players down.

It seems like Willie just ignored any of Borrego's advice, and stuck to whatever 1990's offense that he is running.

Im mostly floored how they managed to lose by 2 in game 1, and SIXTY ONE combined in 2 3 and 4.

We peaked too soon.

They were rusty. They had a couple of weeks off while they waited for whatever "Jerry's Kid" won the play in game.

No but the Pels set pathetic screens

That's a whole team problem. Also, they can't dribble drive to save their life. OKC would constantly spam screen, drive, and pass out till they got a shot they liked

In case you thought last night was a fever dream:

I didn't watch the game at all. Just barely watched "highlights" today. BI clearly must be dealing with a bum knee still because it looks like the worst game he's ever played. What a sad way to go out.

Even worse, OKC was a play-in team last year and they made the jump to 57 wins that quick. You cannot tell me that team has 4-0 sweep talent over the Pelicans. Really 6-0 and most of those games weren't even close. Just sad.
