Yup. Another talented Carolina team being wasted by lousy coaching.

And btw - we’re not getting sh🤬t from our bench. Which is slightly more than we’re getting from our team defense.

Part of that is terrible rotations but also bad injury/suspension luck to start the year. Terry, Cody and Miles being added to the lineup should fix the bench issues for the most part. But yeah bench was absolutely atrocious tonight.

Look at who's on the bench. Atrocious is what you're going to get when you have maybe 2 nba players on your bench

yeah obviously, and when you're missing 3 key guys you're going to have a thinner bench, that's true of any team. Of course having drafts like 2021 don't help and Kupchak deserves blame for the poor depth, but he's mostly done a great job of getting us young high potential talent across all positions. It's on coaching to make it work.

Clifford is so desperate that he’s got Leaky Black in the game in the first half because everyone else he’s tried has been ass.

Let's be honest, it is time for Clifford to go. For a guy who preaches D, his teams never seem to actually play any. 

His lack of success there proves that the team must not actually listen to anything  he says and just tries to play hero ball.

    • The reset worked with proton.me.. wouldn’t work with my Gmail, Yahoo or Verizon email accounts 
    • Wish they started at 5:30 or 6 at the latest so I can watch it. I have to be in bed by start time.
    • okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.
