Now they get a hot OKC team on a back to back. I'm sure Luka's back tomorrow.

I thought Kidd's press conference outburst would fire up the team but I guess not. He's terrible and I think the defensive shortcomings are to be blamed by him and his staff instead of any individual player. They play horrible team defense - no communication, missed assignments and breakdowns. That's on the coaching staff for not getting the team to play on the same page.
"luka system " my ass.Last time i checked irving is suposed to be a great player and he was absolutely awfull .They were facing one of the worst team in the league.
0 excuses for the players.
