So i started this thread last year. Obviously Chauncy was very new.
I have felt this year was his actual first year of real coaching as a head coach.
There are starting to be rumbles about how he is doing at this point. I'm changing my overall take.
We need to give this coach a chance to work through the things he is dealing with. As we get closer to 20 games he will (And Should) start mixing it up a bit. Chauncy needs to find his true starting rotation and then find his situational lineups that he can use in different situations he comes up against. Next I'm hoping he is talking with Cronin about the things he needs. In my opinion a team is a team all the way to the top.
Where has Jody been? Have not seen her in quite a while?
 
Finally are we seeing Chauncey for what kind of coach he really is or will he get better?

We need healthy players to have a true rotation lol.
 
CCB has a good problem of having 13 players he can put on the court. With Dame and GP healthy, pulling the right levers and keeping everyone ready and knowing what is expected of them … a balancing act. Getting everyone healthy and playing and figuring out combinations — prior to a consolidation trade — is a big test the Blazers need.

“Prior to consolidation trade”
Hmmm?
 
Where ya got Chauncy now? Can we use injuries as an excuse?
 
Chauncey is doing good overall. Dealing constant injuries to key rotational guys snd we are still competitive every game.
Chauncey is coaching at almost every stop of action and seems to constantly be in the guts ears about things.

So far he is doing as good as could be expected in my opinion.

So injuries do make a difference.

Absolutely.
Not only has it been on our mvp caliber player, but it stems the growth of continuity of having a consistent lineup.
Coaching can only make so much of a difference. The balance is the talent the coach has available to utilize.
We have been out playing most teams this season, with seemingly less talent on the floor, on average.
 
Our rotation players now are almost all dealing with nagging injuries.
Sharpe....fingers taped together
Ant....foot problems
Jerami....both ankles taped up so they are basically immoveable
Drew....Back spasms
Justise....horrible case of the flu on the road trip
I forget what Josh is dealing with but the fact is we're dinged up.....not that other teams aren't but this is where we're at now
Keon hip pointer
Watford..hip pointer
Dame....calf problem
Gary....core flareup
 
Coaching matters. Somehow Stotts, for all his warts (I’m a fan but not everyone is) got this franchise to 8 straight playoffs. Now we are looking at 2 straight (yeah last seasons tank job it’s still two straight). There’s more talent for what they are producing nightly.
 
when it comes to the regular season, Stotts teams generally overachieved. So far, even allowing for a half-season tank-job last year, Chauncey's teams have underachieved

Hire Stotts!
 
Bring Ime Udokaon as a defensive coach. Somebody needs to give the man a second chance!
