Did Rivera ever say why they didn’t go for points before halftime?

Sorry if this has already been posted, I don’t feel like searching through pages of threads right now. I’m looking to see if Ron said why the team gave up with 50 seconds and two timeouts left before halftime when down by a touchdown?

Just take any of these and mash them into a sentence (editing as more gems roll in):

More so than anything else

Blown opportunities

We saw some good things

Our young guys need to step up

Still feeling our way around

We felt good as a team

We didn't want to give them any momentum

It's a process

No.

Strong Women Journalists can ask the Carolina Panther's QB about physicality in route-running.

But it doesn't seem like Strong Women Journalists can ask the Carolina Panther's HC about wasting available scoring opportunities and not trusting his QB in those situations.

Probably along the lines of, "Don't want to push it, liked where we were at, getting the ball after half with a chance to tie it up"...or some chicken poo answer along those lines.

 

Even if they just throw the ball on first down to see, NO didn't have the timeouts to get the ball back should we run/kneel on 2nd/3rd.  Rivera, Shula, whoever have no balls.

Don't forget "We didn't want to give them any momentum."

The process though, bro. It's all about the process. How could you forget this?

"We thought it would be smart to risk fumbling close to our end zone on a couple meaningless run plays more so than anything else."

"people say I'm too conservative. I wanted to prove them wrong by running our scat back up the middle rather than just taking a knee."

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
