Stotts Fired Thread

[James lamphear]

It's will be billups due season tickets holders already said that will cancel there season tickets if it's Kidd. Do that Dame likes both but they also have to sell tickets so between it's Billups.

Yeah that was over 20 years ago and somehow he has found jobs that vetted him and found him fit to among other things be a head coach/GM. I'm not saying that domestic violence is in any way acceptable but what is the sentence for it?

He can have jobs. Just not this job. Not after all the shit we had to hear about the Jail Blazers.

 

[AldoTrapani]

You HAVE to explain what this means.

This is tough times! A lot of turnover will be happening, trades that we won’t agree on, a coaching hire some might hate.

So I’ll I’m saying is, since I’m labeled the Debby downer pessimist, I’m excited to ride with the changes and welcome a new era of Blazer basketball. I’m excited to give the changes a chance because it was needed..

 

[MickZagger]

nate mcmillan just went 11 yrs between playoff series victories as head coach.

very arguable that he's improved

You can learn a lot sometimes by taking a back seat approach. It might help tame the ego a bit.

Terry Stotts was a mediocre head coach.

He went to Dallas and was an assistant on a team that won a championship.

And then he came here and was a mediocre head coach.

I’ve always just labeled you as a troll.

It’s not what you say. It’s how you go about it.

or he just played an overachieving knicks team

 

[THE HCP]

All of sudden Jason Kidd name disappeared!!!! Woj edited it out!!! So it’s billups!!! Fuck yea i like that

What in the hell are you talking about bro?

 

[BigGameDamian]

Well if that's who Dame wants....Should we be ok with it too?

 

[AldoTrapani]

Whoever our next coach I'd really like to see Bill Laimbeer be our assistant head coach. Very underrated coach.

He has a ring as a coach with the WNBA if I’m not mistaken??

err, i meant to say nate went 17 yrs between playoff series wins. not 11. but sure i'll accept your premise

 

[BlazerBeav]

Just throwing it out there, but the team loses ALL credibility as some kind of bastion of social justice if they hire a wife beater.

I don’t buy season tickets to watch performative social justice theater.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Always respected his game. Had the pleasure of meeting him and talking over dinner during summer league in Vegas. Quality dude.

Fam that’s who I want as my first choice. That’s dope!

 

[Strenuus]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[Jade Falcon]

Thoughts on Juwan Howard?

 

[DDolla]

Don’t worry guys, Chauncey is the one that will replace Stotts

 

[SlyPokerDog]

3 rings.

 

[THE HCP]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

FAMS, you and your boys wanted change......now ya got it.

 

[ehizzy3]

Thoughts on Juwan Howard?

he would be a good hire imo plus he played here one season

 

[noknobs]

I don't care if they hire Ted Lasso if that's what Dame wants.

 

[Jade Falcon]

So we're basically coming to acceptance on this being a 1-player "team". Much like Harden's teams.....there's one player who matters and runs things. There's one player who gets the ball, there's one player who runs the offense.....Dame. No team.

Is that the vibe I'm getting here? After all, he seems to be picking the next coach....

 

[BlazerBeav]

Jade, were you under the impression that wasn’t the case?

 

[B-Roy]

If they hire Chauncey over Kidd the clock starts ticking with Dame. One disappointing season and the talking will start.

 

[Jade Falcon]

Jade, were you under the impression that wasn’t the case?

Not necessarily. However, I expected Dame to wise up that we need a better TEAM, not just him and his bestest-friend head coach, whoever it is.

I mean, how many rings does Harden have with all that skill?

 

[LayneStaley]

Those Oakland ties are so strong that I’m sure Dame would be cool with Marshawn Lynch too. It’s gonna be Billups, especially if that’s Dames 1b.

 

[blazerkor]

I guess we'll see. I found the Jail Blazers shit to be fucking stupid. This at least was something that he did that was a terrible crime. That being said, I would hope that we have forgiveness and a place for an overly indulged misogynistic young man who hopefully made a change and turned into a good man. I don't know why there is a logical reason that a team like the Bucks can acknowledge a change but we shouldn't.

 

[blazerkor]

We still don't know that head coach is the only significant move that will be made. I still think CJ will be traded.

You new?

 

[Strenuus]

This season, as the defense continued to be a problem and Stotts struggled to find a fluid rotation, he struggled to reach his players. Behind the scenes, there were growing concerns about his ability to make in-game adjustments, a fact illustrated in April in Los Angeles when the Blazers played at the Clippers.

According to two sources, Lillard was taunted throughout the game by a Clippers player, who mocked that the Blazers didn’t have a coach who could adjust to the Clippers’ trapping defense on Lillard. The Blazers were stifled 133-116 in that game while Lillard was held to 11 points on 2-of-14 shooting.

How could we see this years before but they couldnt?! Jeez.

 

[calvin natt]

Shit didn’t realize Chauncey also had a sexual assault charge while in Boston? Settled out of court.
