Am I crazy to put the livers reinjury on the coaches? He should be coached to stop trying to dunk in transition. Even when he makes it he looks awkward

My eyes rolled in back of my head after that Ayo shot. Of course he’s hitting jumpers today

My only thought is he wants to stay on the bench to be a good teammate and the staff knows he’s too hurt to play so they’re just not gonna send him back out. Probably a stretch though.

Yeah probably meant that emotionally not physically alright

Definitely crazy. I’m 100% sure that the staff could tell Livers he wasn’t allowed to dunk any more and he’d still go for posters.

Every game, somebody from the opposing team has to go off.

Not just jumpers. Step back 3s. SMDH.

It’s one thing to ask a player to play smart and avoid the 4th or 5th foul by altering their style of play. It’s another to suggest they can start and help the team but leave half of their game on the bench and modify their general style of play.

FS1 only brings a few cameras so I doubt they have a sideline reporter that’s going to update us on Livers.

yes thats crazy, i dont blame the coaches for a player making a high risk play

edit: especially with how cautious and non commital they’ve been in all the pressers since the 1st injury, juwan has been overly cautious if anything

Not sure if we set bad picks or our guys just dont use them well by giving the defender too much space but something is not as good as it should be.

Simpson got called for a travel on that exact same play in the first half…

Yes. You literally have zero information on the situation.

We are so unlucky this season. Our best player gets injured comes back and immediately gets injured. Then even when we play good d everything they throw up goes in. And for the love of all that is good and holy can a team besides us get called for travel once? Rant over
