So ANYBODY else would do better? Kinda like Stotts…..ANYBODY is better? Thats a foolish take.

You are right. I think we all agree here that you wouldn't do better.

Point made.

But the right take.

That's not what he said. Stop putting words in people's mouths

The "Anybody but Stotts" thing is such a straw man.

No one and I mean no one ever said anybody but Stotts and if they did they were speaking in hyperbole. What people wanted then and what a lot of us want now is for the president of basketball ops to be fired, for the team to hire someone better... at this point that just means someone who isn't emotionally attached to this constantly flawed roster and who has experience either as a GM or assistant GM with a good track record.

When people said "fire Stotts" most of us wanted Olshey gone first and then the new GM to hire a head coach who would be on board with the same approach to team building going forward. That's what I want now, new ownership should bring in a new head of basketball ops and that person should bring in a head coach of their choosing.

Five disruptive choices....or call your shot.

Seems balanced......

They got the #1 pick as a team that was in the play-in. That by default means they're in a better place than a team that was bottom 5 of the league.

Guess my point is they are only a 33 win team right now. Probably still play in team.

 

[kjironman1]

Splitter will go back to the bench, unless the new coach wants his own guys.

Cronin's days are likely numbered, though Dundon might keep around a bit longer. He may also want to clean house and put in his own choice of GM.

Dundon will try and have Grant and maybe Jrues contracts moved. Grant may again, get no takers.

Dundon, make trade some younger players like Sharpe to bring in better fits or to put together a more experienced roster.

Exciting

Sit on the fence much? JK .

 

[Phatguysrule]

No clue.

I would swear there were about 15-20 guys that said, when asked who do we bring in said they had no idea, but anybody was better. Am I wrong?

He said he has to go, there’s no argument. I asked him so anybody would be better?

And again, my take is right. There is no argument.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

I wish I could get enthused about this guy. I now realize, after grousing about our Allen owners, that they were about as un-asshole as any Billionaires could be, and that every alternative is going to be orders of magnitude worse. Still, at least we dodged Larry Ellison.

 

[BigGameDamian]

Here’s our chance!

So my main man completely shits the bed at the college level and of course that means success in the pros……. Simply cause he grew up here in the neighborhood? That doesn’t make sense FAMS!

I don't think people actually think things through. If he at least had a modicum of success in college, it would make sense.

 

[THE HCP]

Now if you wanted a local kid to coach, they should have either hired me or Coach Ime.

I don't think the team needs to be coached on how to look like Curly from the three stooges.
