What you mean how are we pinning this on Cuban? He has a $100M+ payroll without Luka after ten years of rebuilding that can barely score 80 points.

I think Brunson has been fine. I'm starting to question coaching and offensive sets. We don't generate easy looks and you can only ask Brunson and Spencer to carry so much of the load. You have to do something differently with Luka out instead of trying to get others to approximate him.

The same team that has held the Jazz full roster to sub 80 in that same time frame? Newsflash you shouldn't be surprised a team can't score when their historic scoring superstar is out.

Should have tried some Brown, Burke and Ntilikina, when it was obvious Maxi and Green can´t throw it in the ocean.Can´t win when your bench at seven points (on wide open shots) and zero assists. The starters hold their own.
It´s simply a matter of getting better players.
We all know Cuban won´t be able to, but we should really take a step back, try to consolidate our cap (get rid of Maxi, Burke, Boban, THJ) for some youth/upside and picks.
Anyway give it all. Still close enough.

Michael Jordan was also a historic superstar and he wasn´t winning until they got him a legit 2nd star and Ron Harper/Horace Grant/Toni Kukoc are a f***load better than Dinwiddie, Brunson and Kleber.

Curse of Cuban.

What in the world is this sequence. These refs are useless.

Got to get Bertans off the court the man is getting eaten alive.

Utah finally makes the easy adjustment.

Not really disagreeing with your points but the offensive game plan does the team no favors. Everything is Jalen and Spencer taking their man off the dribble for a pull up jumper or dive to the cup.

Wow Kidd won the challenge. Big 3 by JB

Golbert is a man among boys out there

Youre right. It took the Bulls almost 8 years to assemble that team.

Really love that DFS and JB have huddled the team up on ball stoppages to coach their teammates up.

I hate Donovan Mitchell so much. The hate is probably fairly irrational, I know, but he is easily in my top 5 handful of hated players in the league.
RE: GAME 1: UTA (0-0) vs. DAL (0-0)| 12:00pm CST - SleepingHero - 04-16-2022
Brunson just not offensively talented enough to carry a team in the playoffs. And that's not a knock. Just reality.

Rebounding
Terrible game by Dinwiddie. Second biggest stock drop on the team aside from Maxi. Bullock makes to top three. Forgot about Josh...
