I'm So SICK & TIRED of Neil Olshey (2 Viewers)

Depending on how the season finishes out, they may very well be changed as those are both positions that are usually hired to eventually be fired. Firing them doesn't automatically improve the team either though as it can also result in a step back. Like I said in a previous post, I am enjoying watching this team.

Let me ask you this, would you fire Stotts if Lillard says he will have to think long and hard if he wants to re-sign?

Good question. I don't believe a player should be allowed to hold a team hostage. The team comes first - period. I would be saddened if Dame turned into that sort of arrogant snot - but if he did, I would hold the door for him.

Well there you have it. You have no officially endorsed moving every player. You really think that's going to improve this team that is only 3.5 games out of first? We should probably just agree to disagree on what this team needs and move on. Have a nice day.

The only version of Dame he endorsed moving is one that doesn't exist.

It doesn't exist because Stotts doesn't appear to be on the hot seat right now. That's why it was a hypothetical just like what he proposed to me was a hypothetical. It doesn't exist either as of now so not sure what your point was?

I'm not a big 'fire Stotts' guy...but firing Stotts now, 2.5 years before Dame becomes a free agent...are you actually suggesting that if management decided they needed a new coach they should just wait till they have Dame re-signed in July 2021 until they fire the coach they wanted to fire 2.5 years before?

Dame is a great player but he's not the GM, nor should he have the power of those kind of decisions. He's earned the right to have input but he hasn't earned the right to have the veto

Dame was good friends with Robin Lopez but he got over Lopez walking. He was really good friends with Will Barton but he got over Barton being traded. he was good friends with Tim Frazier but he got over Frazier being released. He was good friends with Mason Plumlee and hated to see Plumlee traded, but he turned right around and established a good friendship with Nurkic

I've seen this same argument before. People don't like the opinions of other posters about such and such, and they try to use the "Dame won't like it" argument. In the last 2-3 years, that silly argument has been used over and over to defend the status quo and the status quo is basically trudging along on a treadmill



sure, a lot can happen between now and April. That's 4 months of a year

on the other hand, this is the 7th season of both Stotts and Olshey. You're talking about needing 4 more months of evaluation. Others here are saying that 78 months of evaluation are enough. There isn't anything new that will be evident after 82 months that wasn't evident at 78 months

So what would you do now?
Don’t just say fire them both but give a couple of replacement candidates.

I'm not surprised.

Mark Few, or Ime Udoka for coaches

I like both those guys.
I doubt few would be interested?

I said I wasn't a 'fire Stotts' guy, but if he was fired, just elevate an assistant

Olshey should have been fired in July 2016 and the janitor could have done as good a job since then

No idea how interested theyd be. Would be my first two candidates though.

No reason for the snarky reply. Maybe it's your presentation that's in error?

Thanks for responding.
I’m thinking it will be off season for changes unless Stotts loses team.
