At what time in the last 6 years has Portland had the talent to win a Championship? Seriously now. If you think that is a spin then again i don't know what to tell you.
I have been very consistent in saying that the Leonard pick was fine based on who else was available. It's completely unrealistic to say that he should've been picked 11th when he went in the 2nd round so no I don't say that. Of course if we were redrafting he'd go higher but then we wouldn't have Dame sooooooo yeah. Green becoming a good player and being an immediate game changer is not the same thing. You're the only one contradicting yourself here.
What in the fuck are you actually talking about? The only one who needs to read it is you obviously. I don't get what you aren't understanding.
You're saying this while also saying it's contradictory to say that making the playoffs isn't contending. Do you realize how stupid these posts look?
It's very obvious you don't get it. Your narrative is so ingrained that you have lost objectivity.
Never disagreed with that. the point is Kerr inherited a very good team. That is and was always the point. You are trying to say he didn't.
Your posts are so all over the place and don't make any sense. I'm sorry I really tried to give you the benefit of the doubt here but it's just mumbled thoughts accusing me of saying something I didn't.
What? I said that no one considered them title contenders (which is 100% true). They were obviously good enough to make the playoffs (much like Portland) but not a contender (much like you are claiming with Portland).
My point would actually be does it matter, I was the one who brought up Kerr, but saying well Kerr isnt actually a good coach isnt much of an argument for keeping Stotts. Though I dont think Stotts is in any Danger of losing his job after their run last year. My point was you dont know if there are better coaches unless you go look.
They make sense just fine bro. You cannot throw a bunch of shade on it by muddying the waters and changing narratives. You want to spin it to your liking and it's wrong.
Sorry but you have yourself completely confused and have no clue what you are even arguing.
Again that is not only what you said. It also is not true. They were obviously beginning to be contenders. Here is the rankings. Spurs just won it all but here is GS at #5
I don't have a narrative! Seriously stop KJ, you've been trying to turn this into something it's not and I don't understand why.
Sure it's me that has not clue. Sure.
It doesn't matter but trying to compare them is wrong. Kerr has always been in a great situation. Everyone except those who want to try and tear down Stotts knows this.
Yes you do. This thread is about coach Stotts. You do everything you can to say Stotts is a bad coach. He has never had what Kerr has had. So don't even go there anymore. The year he took over they were already on their way to becoming a Championship contender. Most everyone knew this.
Oh wow, you know what?
What coach won in bad situations? Including Stotts. Its not so much tearing down Stotts IMO, but I kind of view him like I view Jackson, a good coach, he knows more about basketball then any of us, but I dont believe he’s a championship level coach, I just dont.
You were right. I was going to need more popcorn. Haha
This made me lolEither you drunk or you my girlfriend Kjiron
This is some massive piles of bullshit KJ. Not once in this thread did I bash Stotts or post a narrative about Stotts level of coaching, so any inference to that is solely on you buddy.
That is an SB Nation pre-season Power Rankings. You are trying to say that is "Some Guy". Okay. ESPN has them 4th in the Western Conference. Now understand this is also the last year with Aldridge and the Blazers were 5th....
