Another missed freethrow. Hopefully it doesn't bite us like in games past

So many mistakes. On really basic stuff. Ime putting in a cold Tari in his first game back. Tari helping off the 3 point line in a 2 point game. Missed FTs. I could go on.

Didn't y'all have issues closing games last season? Thompson and Sengun need to grow up and make plays at some point. Durant is doing everything he can to let them do that.

With Van Vleet you're probably like 21-5 so I don't think it's time to hit the emergency button. I do think this team even without VV can contend and think you should pick up an actual 1. 

Also I really fucking like JSJ. Dude is incredibly unaffected.

Jabari was -20 last night, and generally played like shit all week. Hopefully it’s an aberration, but as the Game Theory guys expertly laid out, Jabari’s contract has value if he’s the 4th or 5th best player on the team, but if he’s the 7th best player on the team it’s a bad deal. Players better than Jabari right now: 

Alpie 

KD 

Amen

Reed 

Adams

I know he's made a huge leap this year and he's filling up the box score on a nightly basis, but you still can't play Reed Sheppard on defense at crunch time. He's going to get targeted every time down the floor. Dennis Shroeder is 1000 years old, has never been known for being much of a threat off the bounce, and he was blowing right by him in overtime. They didn't even bother burying him with a screen. They just iso'd Reed in the corner and there's no rim protection behind him.  It's going to be 100 times worse in the playoffs when teams can really gameplan to go after him and the physicality gets amped up.

Also, I don't care if it's overtime or not, KD has zero business playing 48 minutes in a NBA game at 37 years of age, much less in a back to back where he played 40 the night before and it's the 3rd game in 4 nights. His last 4 games: 44, 43, 40, and 48 minutes. That's just playing with fire at this point in his career. The regular season is a marathon, not a sprint. Ime is a great coach, but that's malpractice.
