Lol, good one. Tell that to Coach Pop, Doc Rivers, Nick Nurse, Brad Stevens, and Coach Bud. You never cease to amaze!

I like all those coaches! I'm not going to bash Coach Pop for missing the playoffs this year, his roster isn't as strong as it's been in the past.

You think we can obtain any of those coaches next year? I'd be down!
 
So where is the Dame hate? Or does it not apply because they won?
 
Blazers need Hassan Whiteside to reach inside and come help his team win. Collins is struggling bigtime! We need help for Nurk. Melo was great, and clutch. His defense was fantastic on the white hot Richardson at the end of the game. This may be one of those finishes we recall years from now. It wasn't going our way what so ever, but intestinal fortitude is huge, and this team has buckets of it.
 
How much better is this team with the return of nurk and collins? Not nearly as much as i expected. Same stuff, needing monster games from dame to eek out wins vs average/bsf teams.

The hate is here. This board pisses and moans about almost everyone on the roster, except the D-League players who some feel are deserving of more minutes.

The English language needs a new, nonsexist word for “bitch”. Asshole doesn’t have quite the same whiny connotation, but I guess it will have to do.

This hasn’t been a well coached team in years man and it always gets exposed in these playoff scenarios. Dame Nurk and occasionally CJ just hide the issues with their individual play.

Was it exposed in his series win over OKC? Everyone though OKC was going to win that series. Was it exposed in his series win over Denver including a Game 7 on the road?
 
I missed the first half. What happened to Whiteside?
 
Just a quick galance on the first page of the first 76ers message board on a google search. Apparently the 76ers have a horrible coach too:upload_2020-8-9_18-31-28.png
 
Heeheehee. Fans are the same no matter where they live.

I think Nurk clearly helps the flow of the offense and a little bit protecting the rim. Neither of the bigs solve the issue that nobody in our starting lineup can stay in front of their man and there is no scheme that can overcome that.
 
Stotts apologists hypocrisy at it’s apex right. Coaches have little effect on games but why get rid of Stotts unless you can get a top coach...

Mario was more impactful this game than Gabriel was. Why is it hard for some of you fans to appreciate both?

Rio played quality minutes. He's still somewhat snakebit at times. I really feel for him, cause you can see the desire. His baskets were key. We needed every point.

Hey Stotts doesn't commit the foul before the pass is inbounded. He's doing the best with the hand he's dealt right now.

That was some weak ass shit. Not a flagrant, he nudged him.

Yeah, but it doesn't fit the narrative for those that complain about all things McCollum. NBA keeps getting weaker and weaker with shit calls like that. Call the foul. Give them the ball out of bounds or the free throw line and keep playing.
