Discuss because I can't come up with any good reason for that.


Yeah that was weird especially when Brook can't shoot to save Robin's life.


And it wasn't like, for a play. It was for several minutes. I believe it was...

Ball/JC/Brewer/Lopez/Bogut

Dumb.

Stop playing Lopez like he's a stretch 5.. his BEST season from three was 34% why the heck are we creating schemes and plays for him as if he shoots 37% from three or something!?!?!?!

Seriously you have an all-star potential "offensive" center in the post that is shooting 32% from three against Zach Randolph and your first plays for him are "jack up some threes" ....

I am done with Luke's schemes. Trade Lopez to a team that needs to go over the top and get us a center Luke actually knows how to freaking use, which would be a "Bogut" role kind of center cause if it isn't the Golden State offense, Luke has no clue how to utilize it.

I don't care. There's no reason to play Bogut and Lopez.

Think GSW ever plays McGee and Pachulia together? Like, ever? Maybe they do but I have never seen it.

Luke couldn't even just leave Lonzo in to finish the game with 1:12 left? Especially after making two straight 3s?

I guess we give the development time for KCP. Even after he's gone next year. Good job Luke.

I don’t think Luke is the coach going forward. It obvious he doesn’t know what he’s doing. Seems to be standing in the way more games than not.

Hope so. Luke's a total failure with his game costing rotations, no shooting coach, questionable offense system, etc. He's basically Mark Jackson when he was holding the Warriors back before Kerr came along.

Mike Dantoni would have done wonders with this roster, especially Lonzo.

I thought misstep by Luke was toward end of 3rd when gap closed to 7 points, and Kuzma in foul trouble, he countered with Hart/KCP/JC/Randle/Ingram lineup while Kings had two bigs on floor with Randolph/Cauley-Stein.

Kings used mismatch for gimme baskets in post, and pushed lead to 11. He needed Bogut or Lopez in place of KCP or Hart. Though when playing catchup all the time, there's no room for error and Luke really has to earn his keep.

If his game planing and drawing up plays are anything like his substitutions there is a problem. But I'm not behind the curtain so I'll give him the benefit of a doubt.

I also love how useless Luke's timeouts are. So many times especially tonight when he calls a timeout where the rotations are clearly not working and the Kings get hot, but doesn't make a sub and the other team continues to go on a run.

Then calls another timeout.

It was the same crap Byron Scott has always pulled too. Useless timeouts with no subs or in-game corrections.

Probably our best front court player at defensive rotations as weak side help guy.

lol yeah..

he called time time out when Sacramento tied the game at 8 - 8 but then later in the game go on a run that extended the lead back to 17.

I don't get it and maybe that is something that all coaches go through in their first few years but a lot of what I'm seeing is just sloppy.

He's a better coach than some but damn he does some questionable things

With this young team, you never know who will show up on a any single night. Luke has to constantly tweak his lineup to adjust for different underperforming players at different nights. Especially lately with a bunch of players going cold offensively, and their defense suffers too.

Back to back on the road.
Gotta expect young players and role players to be less effective.

It just sucks when 4 rotation guys all play like crap in the same game.

Man, I know huh? He has done wonders with every point guard he has coached.
