Well some teams certainly seem to make it a fairly regular habit.No big deal NBA teams blow 30 point leads all the time!!!
True - but holding onto fairly large leads has been an issue this season.they have like 4 losses in 2 months, tough to say any kind of loss is a fairly regular habit
Porzingis said they just got lazy like no biggie.True - but holding onto fairly large leads has been an issue this season.

Now that kind of response bothers me. I would rather he say something like " we know that maintaining our focus when we have a big lead is something we need to work on to make sure that something like tonight doesn't happen in the Playoffs ". I have a hard time believing that guys like Larry Bird, Kevin Garnett or Bill Russell would just laugh off blowing a 30 point lead.Porzingis said they just got lazy like no biggie.
Comparing KP to Garnett, Bird especially Russell is a mistake, none of those guys would do that.Now that kind of response bothers me.

Hockey players say those type of post game comments/thoughts but usually you can tell it's said with anger and shame, not like "meh. . ."Now that kind of response bothers me.

Sources tell me that a man who live bet Samford +370 was really upset about that call
Blowing big leads for this team is nothing new. They did it in victory over a Bucks team without Giannis, the Cavs debacle. These aren't run of the mill 10 point leads.they have like 4 losses in 2 months, tough to say any kind of loss is a fairly regular habit

I certainly wasn't comparing KP the player to those other 3 guys. It was just a commentary on the " who gives a crap " attitude that most of the current NBA players have. I still remember something Larry Bird said in an interview just after he stepped down as the Pacers Head Coach. He was asked to compare current NBA players to those he he played with and against. Bird responded that today's players play more for the name on the back of their jersey than they do for the name on the front.Comparing KP to Garnett, Bird especially Russell is a mistake, none of those guys would do that.
KP isn't in the same class of a player that those 3 are, not in this lifetime or ever for that matter!.
Maybe Alex Rodriguez has an extra cousin they could use.It really is incredible that these players think they’re gonna get away with stuff like that when they don’t have a Japanese translator to pin it on
WTF !!!I would fire Joe Mazz before overtime starts. THIS SHIT NEVER CHANGES
