Good offense, bad defense. Wow, good thing we replaced Stotts with Chauncey...

They don't have a sharpshooter, like Dorsey or Duarte.. They don't have guy like Omoruyi (sp) or
Dillon Brooks who can get a tough basket. Richardson looks like a scared rabbit; cannot be a leader. That said, still would not be surprised if Altman turns them into something by the end of the year. But like he says it's gonna be a really tough job.

I know this isn't the Ducks forum (do we have one?); but I think that Altman will (for the first time?) develop an offense around some of his four highly recruited young centers. I think Johnson will be a constant because he can shoot when he is away from the basket and he is intelligent and can pass. I think they will pair him with Kepnang or Dante, which maybe they can get away with since the college court is more crowded. Haven't seen much from Bittle yet, although he is higher ranked as a recruit than the other three. Supposedly can shoot from anywhere and also a great passer. He may have been injured or is just starting slow.

Ah, yes, comparing a first year head coach in his first 20 games to a coach that had 10 years to build a culture and scheme! Are you really that blind?

I guess not everyone can come in and be Steve Kerr. Or Thibs.

Dude, being a bit of a homer hardly qualifies one as a nutjob. Sports is one aspect that we can totally be irrational about and not have any negative effect on our lives. You being a Lakers homer on a Blazers forum is annoying, but no one should be calling you a nutjob.

“Bit of a homer”? You new?

Steve Kerr took over a 50 win team with a loaded roster. Say what you want about Mark Jackson, but there was a reason a lot of people were saying he got shafted when he was fired. (They got better every year under his watch.)

Thibs was an assistant coach for 20 years.

And you coming up with two examples kinda proves my point out of the hundreds of coaches.

*Insert logic/thinking meme*
 
The Grizzlies are down 39 points at home after 3 quarters to Atlanta.

...and then they realized how stupid they'd been when Kerr, who'd never even been an assistant coach, transformed a decent team, that nobody saw as a contender, into a fucking dynasty.

And Mark Jackson has never coached since.

I think you make trades to put a team around Dame that makes sense before you blow it up completely. Don't get me wrong if we did blow it up I wouldn't be as pissed as I am at the nothing we've been doing but I want to give Dame a chance to win here.

Sac beat the Lakers 3 overtime

While the Lakers eventually won with all their Hall of Famers, it's impressive that the Kings were even competitive on the road without Richuan Holmes and Harrison Barnes...

...wait, the Kings won?

Well, at least the Lakers were competitive, @THE HCP

Naw it’s over. The dude is getting old. It’s time for a change. Rockets and Blazers my guy. And one of those teams are losing on purpose
 
So somehow I get banned from the game thread bc I keep it 100

let me know when ya ready to rebuild
 
Wow so the only team in the NBA who has a worse road record than the Blazers is the rockets who literally lose on purpose and have 1 overall win all season. Omg

What else is there to see 20 games into the season? What a disaster of a season

I want a rebuild but I also get worried lookin at teams like the kings, timberwolves ect. But I would rather go for the chance to be great in the draft and get out Giannis then be mediocre at best.
