And this is where I throw in the towel on Borrego.  I like him, but his negative just outweigh the positives.  Defense is about focus and effort and we have neither.  Our guys are just going through the motions...  and offensively, literally anyone from this board could "coach" what they're out there doing right now...  just roll the ball out there and take turns jacking horrible shots up.

This has nothing to do with our youth or injuries.  They have significant injuries and are still waxing us.  And youth will struggle like this when there isn't any structure, which there obviously isn't.  This is so frustrating to watch.

embarrassing...just embarrassing.  I shouldn't watch this team, I watched 3 games this year, and all 3 were embarrassingly bad losses, how the fug was this team supposed to be not-garbage.  Thank god we gave mr injury a billion dollars to never play when it counts.  atleast I can go back to not giving a fug about the hornets.

The Hornets on the whole have been bad defensively, but it seems like every replay we see of a Pacers layup shows PJ either getting back cut or watching when he should be helping

Giving up a 40 point first quarter to start the play-in round is not what we'd call ideal

This couldn't go any worse.  I really wish we would just go to the officials and just say we forfeit.  Should have done it at halftime.  Guys are literally watching their match-up walk past them and go up for shots and they aren't so much as lifting a finger.  Every time the Pacers come down the court, someone is wide open and unguarded.  They just don't care.

And on offense, we are equally a trainwreck.  Just chucking poo up.  No plays, no screens, just coming down and jacking up horrible off-balance or contested shots for no fuging reason. 

Borrego is cheeks.

Yup.  That's exactly what i was alluding to about PJ in my thread.  Dude doesn't care about winning, he just likes all the things that comes with being a pro player.  His effort absolutely sucks 9 out of 10 games, which is why he's so inconsistent.

Who isn't replaceable besides Melo and Bridges? Took Batum's shitty contract and handed it to Hayward who plays 20% of games. Coach can't force the guys to make shots but they gotta be trying to get him fired. No team shoots 30-35% for 2 weeks in a row

Its not just the shooting.  Look at the defense.  Sabonis has hardly done anything at our weakest spot defensively, and yet they're up 30.  Its because guys are just out there not giving a poo.  They aren't talking, not communicating, just literally watching poo as it unfolds like the rest of us.  It's pathetic.  And that does go on coaching.

LOL at everyone crapping on the Hornets bad tonight but Indiana is hitting fuggin everything they shoot.  Cant ignore how great they have shot the ball tonight.

But, its not hard to shoot 60% when you are shooting wide open shots every possession.

    • From my what I have seen the overwhelming majority of people who are considering the notion a possibility don't really want to see it happen but are considering so for a number of reasons. Most importantly availability. Secondly even when he plays the last few seasons he has been red hot or ice cold. Then there is the subject of his defense which to say the least leaves a lot to be desired. Then there is the image of Ball inactive laughing it up on the sideline (while our team was getting the doors blown off) with previous busts who are now relegated to hanging on by a thread in the g league. I think we should be able to recognize with the team going out of their way to put a very strong emphasis on culture and leadership with the conclusion of this years draft that they expect LaMelo to lead the way this upcoming season and that begins with making significant strides and trending in a positive direction in the aforementioned aspects above. It just has to happen.
    • Ppl want to trade Melo? Am I wrong for thinking that would be a bad idea? 
    • Some of you act like one can't learn from experience over time. Just because you may not know what you're doing in 2018 doesn't mean that you don't know what you're doing in 2025. Frankly, you grow from experience, and success and excellence gives first-time applicants the hand probably 99.999% of the time.
