Prove he's worse than Love or Rupert...
Again Jones played over 500 minutes on a 68 win team. That alone is more impressive than anything Rupert has accomplished in his 2.15 seasons.
Love is still TBD as an NBA player, but it's definitely not promising...
To emphasize the point/issue -> it's...
These two sentences don't make sense....
Love is not an NBA talent. Rupert can't even get off the bench when the entire team is injured... To insinuate that Jones would not be better than either of those two players is ludicrous. The second sentence states that Jones got 10-minutes...
I missed the game but looked at the box score.
Looks like Love & Cooke had a rough night...
and did Rupert really receive a DNP-CD? Or was he injured too?
If its a DNP when we're running the MASH unit out there-> we might as well cut him right now and sign someone who can play
There is no requirement to take him back...
Blazers may have to pay him for the remaining years on his contract -> but I highly doubt he ever coaches the Blazers again.
IMO, the most likely option is that Blazers & Billups agree to a buy-out where Billups gets some of the money due on his...
I like Billups as a person.
I do NOT like him as a coach.
We've had 4 years of watching his coaching style. Not a whole lot has changed over that time.
This preseason & game 1, we saw a vastly different playing style. Arguing that these schemes are Billup's doing rings a bit hollow...
