We played 9 guys in the first half. People are so hell bent here on getting their angry takes off that they don’t even really respond to what’s happening. He played a deep bench in the first half, so what are we complaining about? The defense was horrific when a lot of the fresh subs were in there too. We were also pressing almost the entire half, after 1 practice in 2 weeks.
JB said in the presser he should’ve came out of the press sooner. He liked that it kinda got us going after a bad start and created some turnovers and some tempo, but after awhile it wasn’t very good.
The second half, we didn’t look “tired”. We also only gave up 33 points and 4 3’s. Much more normal.
Only problem I had was no Kadary in the second half...though JB actually explained exactly why he did it, and also said that it would’ve been a mistake if Joe didn’t come through down the stretch with those big shots.
