Great offensive mind, and horrible defensive coach. The Blazers need to make a trade. Plain sand simple, they're not that good. But they are in perfect postion to make a move. Do it PAUL ALLEN!
Defensively, sure. As a team? You're not a very good observer of basketball, if you think so, because no "average" team ever has our record.
Who are the other teams playing well in December? OKC, SA, Heat, and Indiana all of whom are considered contenders. December DOES matter. You can't play .500 for a few months and then magically win 60 games for HCA throughout the playoffs. It's a season long journey to get there that matters just as much in December as it does in Aprll. Not only are we hanging with those guys, but we are 3-0 against them.
What do we need!?!?!? Enlighten the board with your endless basketball knowledge. Stotts has a system that fits our personal perfectly, that is why we are 23-5. Getting rid of him is not the answer, but bringing in a defensive minded assistant may help with our defensive philosophy. We do need another big to help cement our front court, but that has been screamed throughout the board for the last month. Would love to hear your thoughts on who or what we can do to better this team right now rather than taking any oppurtunity to say that " the blazers arent good". That is just ignorant.
Isn't OdenisGod the guy who doesn't pay up on bets? Lol..his posts are always a source of entertainment.
An assistant coach who has a clue about defense, a big wing guard, and another solid big. These pieces can be had. I would look straight at the NY KNICKS!! I think they can give you two out of those 3 pieces. I would trade for Iman Shumpert and Tyson Chandler RIGHT NOW! If the Blazers got those two we would be title contenders and it would do wonders for our defense. Shumpert is strugling this year on offense but it's because Woodson is an idiot and not using him right, his defense is still great though. Tyson Chandler is currently hurt but nothing serious. He would give this team a much needed attitude and we all saw what he did for the Mavs, he's still only 31 and could do the same for the Blazers! PERFECT FIT.
There you go! I really like that idea and those guys. I think we might have to give up too much to make something like that happen considering we dont even have any 1st rounders next year.
