Who fills roy's void?

[Eastoff]

In fact you saying Nate has no clue how to make it work when 15 deep and that this team is screwed when everyone comes back is an assumption.

If you want to get all pedantic and metaphysical, everything in your life is based on assumption. You assume the sun will not be destroyed. You assume the laws of physics won't suddenly be changed. You assume your opinions are true because they are YOUR OPINIONS.

but yeah, I think Nate is going to have a lot of trouble when he gets a full healthy roster.

PS I hope I didn't come across to harsh.

That was my point. NateB said: I'm not necessarily saying it's one or the other, but I refuse to make assumptions. And I pointed out that basically everything we say on this board are assumptions.

(Nate clarified that he personally refuses to make assumptions about McMillan getting the guys to play hard.)

But yes, my post was pointing out what you pointed out . . . that everything is an assumption . . . I don't have a problem with assuptions.

Not EVERYTHING is an assumption. Some things are cold hard facts

Bayless. Rudy has proven nothing.

Oh, you mean like hitting the most three pointers of any rookie ever?

Good to see you are finally coming around.

Was it the win/loss record with all the injuries or the fact he is getting the players to play so hard, that has turned you around?

So it's not his fault that they were not playing so hard in the earlier games, but it's due to him that they're playing with a purpose now? Got it.

 

[Minstrel]

I think most players play hard because it's their job and the harder they play, the more they accomplish...which is tied directly to how much they get paid. This isn't high school or college...the players have huge financial incentives to play hard (granted, some college players have big financial incentives to play hard also but most don't).

I'm not going to give McMillan credit for the players "playing hard." I expect the players to do that and give them credit for doing it.

"McDouchenozzle is a shitty coach" obviously.

Actually I was going to say stats. Hard to refute them. If I say Andre Miller is playing well, and I have stats to back that claim up, it is no longer an assumption.

Strike that!

Reverse that!

Well, I would say that one can always argue the assertion that stats = playing well. The stats themselves are inarguable (except for Chris Paul's assists--their scorekeeper cheats), but the interpretations thereof are generally debatable.
