Added to Calendar: 01-03-23

I was so ecstatic when Snyder stepped down thinking we’d finally get a guy that stressed defense, used his bench and didn’t rely so heavily on three point shooting. Just my fecking luck!!! Hardy is even starting to look like the bass turd, right down to the psychopathic scowl!:rolleyes:
 
I couldn't agree more. Maybe he ends up being a bust, but it's time to give him some minutes and find out what we have.

So sad it’s so easy for Fox to get to the cup and score! Where in the hell is the help defense?
Jazz defense in the paint is awful. I only watched a bit of the game but you can't be giving up so many easy buckets at the basket. Noone contested Fox that last drive either. Team is in desperate need of a big athletic wing to replace old man Gay. I'd be giving minutes to Agbaji solely based on him being young and athletic. NAW back to looking rough again.

Good competitive tank loss though.
 
Aren't out of bounds plays in the final 2 minutes something Hardy could've challenged if he thought there should be more time left on the clock?

They did allow Fox to basically stroll to the basket for an uncontested layup. That was on them and their total lack of defense.

It was really odd that Hardy didn’t challenge that. He can’t be that stupid, almost like there’s some wink, wink, nod, nod if the game is tight and there’s a way to lose valiantly. I notice that the talking heads seem to really be stressing how well we fight every game like we’re the greatest sub .500 team ever!

As much as I love lauri, teams are exposing him on defense.
How? What? Care to elaborate?

Dude, if Hardy thought our best option to defend Fox in iso is a 7 footer it literally means everyone else have been exposed. Lauri isnt supposed to defend Fox there.

Hardy called Markkanen on Fox and that was the only play I remember where Lauri was his primary defender. Fox waved the screen off as he wanted that matchup, and Lauris challenge at the rim was the closest anyone in our team got to stopping him in the 4th.

That same guy toyed with Conley, Clarkson and Beasley all of the 4th...

Or he was throwing in the towel with the surreptitious tank maneuver. Hardy has got to be the stupidest man alive if he really thought that Markkanen had a snowball’s chance staying in front of Fox top of the key. I would have put either Clarkson or NAW on him and also pulled KO and had Kessler in the paint. That was just way too easy for him and suspicious as hell imo.
