We've lost a lot of close games this season, I hope this team learns how to finish before the season is over. IMO we are beyond due to win another tight game.

And that idiot Ham will say “I could kick myself for not calling the timeout….”
Blah blah blah
You suck dude!!!
Crappy hire.
Fire Pelinka, sell the team Jeanie.
What a mess.
Yes, I know guys are injured but those are two games we sucked down the stretch from CRAPPYASS COACHING!!!
14 seconds, no timeout.
AND WE HAD TWO TIMEOUTS LEFT!!!
Still virtually tied for the 10th play-in slot, and only 2 losses from 6th seed. Just gotta get the horses back and close L becomes a W. Hope for optimism
When Russ bubble the ball at the 6 second mark, someone has to call that TO. The entire last possession was Russ trying to iso on their best defender….. we had 2 timeouts left. What kind of (bleep) play was that?
I'm not sure why people are this irate. Granted, I would have like to see a timeout called. But, I honestly don't think it would have made a huge difference. We are not a good half court offensive team. That's why we struggle immensely when the game slows down, whether we're behind, or ahead. I don't have confidence that we would have gotten a good look, even if we had called a timeout.

I mean i am not shocked. Ham gives me Nash vibes to be honest. Sure we aren't a good half court team but Ham made sure we were dead before we even tried anything. We had 2 timeouts we could have gotten something better than THAT.
It's awful coaching but i've come to expect that from Ham.

Westbrook trying to iso a perennial DPOY candidate. _________________ Damian Lillard shatters Dwight Coward's championship dreams:

I think's it's more Ham being a rookie head coach, than being a bad coach. I understand the logic behind how the last play unfolded. The Lakers are best in transition, and Russ got the rebound and pushed the ball in an attempt to take advantage of the Sixers before they set their defense. Embiid on Russ would usually be advantageous for us. The problem was, it was the closing seconds of the game, when the refs swallow their whistle. The defense can get away with extra stuff, which I believed happened. Though, to be fair, that last attack by Russ wasn't the best decision. I won't put it all on Russ, or Ham. The whole team just stood there, looking at everything happen. This is a team thing. Bad execution has been a season long issue. _________________ ZOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!
