Joel puts his heart on the court, but he also made poor shot choices and forced attempts. Both of these can be true.
Another elimination game where he is shooting fade away threes and acting like this is the way....
I'll always respect his effort and what he did this series with his injuries, but I saw way too many similarities from last seasons elimination game.
I respect Joel enough to hold him accountable too for this bullshyt game and still be able to praise the positives. The man is not infallible. Back to back years where it’s clear emotions running his mind during the game and after a Loss.
Makes me wonder what’s going on in game with the chemistry and if he had these thoughts at halftime. Different year, same result. Is what it is.
