Josh Jackson has killed us over the last three seasons

I thought Josh Jackson was dead.  Yeah Taylor doing his thing.

He wasn't dead, they just sent him to the G-League to prove he can be a professional. He has turned a new leaf. He will get paid this summer from someone.

Good thing IM not a team owner. lol. This is getting hard to watch..

Trae has been absolute garbage

 

 

[benhillboy]

Alright Clint.  Get pissed.

Memphis plays with maturity.  We play emotionally . . whether it be sky high, or very low.

Settling for all of these long and tough jumpers is a key indicator of how good Memphis defense is, and how we're not matching their toughness.

 

Good look by Huerter that didn't fall.

[Lurker]

Trae is sick. He likely should not have played in this game as it wasn't going to matter regardless sadly and they likely should plant him on the bench in the 2nd half.

Taylor Jenkins is a Bud disciple.  Bud and his disciples have a way of completely turning the career of wayward players around.  Josh Jackson is another case of this.  
 

Memphis is so far ahead of Atlanta.

This team is a damn joke

As I said the other day, you are either coaching it or allowing it.  Memphis is coached extremely well.  Atlanta isn’t.

This is what LP writes on his clipboard during every timeout

If he's so sick that he can't give us at least 80%, he needs to sit for the rest of the night.

 

John Collins:  3 - 6 FG

Rest of the team:  3 - 21 FG

He's weak out there. Not even himself. Right now, no one on our team can buy a basket. I would like to see us play tough without fouling. 

[Cwell]

Cam hurt again smh

Probably.

I'm thinking he's been sick for over a week too and it's just gotten bad recently. I think there's only 1 reason he is "trying" to play today. If it was any other team I bet he sits out.

[benhillboy]

I’ve never seen Jaren Jackson play but damn.  They’re missing his production (17 points on .564 efg, 1.6 blocks) and still playing this well of late?

I would say that LP coaches emotionally as well.

Trae's offense, especially when he's drawing fouls, masks a lot of inefficiencies with this team . .  and the coaching at times.

[TheNorthCydeRises]

Traeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee  with the drawn charge!

[benhillboy]

Trae just took a charge and got over a screen.  I wish he was sick more often.

[benhillboy]

Ded going coast to coast is too funny.
