I don’t think the blame is on anyone in particular. It’s on our defense in whole. We played the whole game with the defense we played in the second half, would’ve won the game imo. If you look at pg’s shooting numbers only you think he had a horrible night, but he had 10 rebounds, and 4 steals. Also went to the line 6 line times. Of course you would want him to maybe quit shooting once he sees he’s off, but if he does that puts more pressure on russ. You can’t blame one particular player, is what I’m getting at.24-10-10 on 8/17 shooting and our fan base is blaming Russ while defending PG...he has quickly became this fan bases new KD, never gonna get any blame.

You’re right he has to play better, but to say he’s the reason we lost is a stretch. And incorrect, imo. I love him, but a lot of the blame goes on Adams too. He needs to be more physical on Kanter. Chalk it up as a bad game and move on though, I still think we win the series.Our D was bad the first quarter, it was smothering the 2nd and 3rd, gave up 39 in the first and 37 combined in the second and third, and average in the 4th, and had a 94 Def rating for the game. D wasn't the problem. Russ, Dennis, PG, and Grant going 4/29 from 3 was the problem.
PG also had 0 assists and 4 TOs, shot 8/24 and 4/15 he was awful, to say otherwise is foolish. If Russ had a game similar to that, everyone would be trashing him for being inefficient and shooting too much. But with PG its "oh he wasnt that bad and MAYBE he should shoot less." Lol Thanks for proving my point. I'm not blaming one player, but your 2 stars have to play well and one didn't. TBF he knows he was bad, and he'll be better, he has to be.
