Skiles takes this one with flying honors! He should be a foot out the door IMO.

Big Hennigan fan, but voted him and Skiles. He's in my line of fire until he makes some obvious moves that we need.

Re: Dunce Cap of Defeat
Is this the return of the Dunce Cap Thread? If so, I'm all for it. Skiles on this one tonight, but plenty of blame to go around among players as well.

Re: Dunce Cap of Defeat
Our starting lineup was +8 for the game. They did most of their damage in the 3rd quarter when they played the most together. Skiles of course decided they shouldn't play at all together in the final 17 minutes of the game while the hornets went on a 41 to 22 run. Skiles runs away with the dunce.

Re: Dunce Cap of Defeat
Scott Skiles for not understanding any sort of common sense whatsoever when it comes to coaching a team and more importantly correcting mistakes in game by being a better teacher instead of "sending messages."
Also Rob Hennigan needs to start deserving blame for what's going on as this is his team. However my anger towards him is not as bad only because I actually believe that this roster has untapped potential. It's just not being used properly.

Re: Dunce Cap of Defeat
Skiles, I think he's lost this team and has managed somehow to suck all the fun out of them. All the players look like robots out there and it's not working. The coach should be able to make adjustments during the game to stop the bleeding when it starts.
Victor came out after the game and answered questions for the I.U. alumni . Someone asked him if he's having fun. He hesitated before he answered and finally said yeah, but not very enthusiastically. I really don't think he meant it. Even though it's a job that they get paid ridiculously well for, you know, if you are having fun at your job, you do it better.
Wasn't happy when they hired him, don't really think they thought about it much, wanted him from the beginning. Haven't watched the press conference afterwards yet. Did he finally take any responsibility or just dump it on the players?

Still think they need a Joe Maddon type coach. He gets the absolute most out of young players and everyone has fun while he's doing it!

lol he dumped it on the players big time. Poor Elfrid caught the brunt of it as is becoming a trend with Skiles.

Unfortunately, you are too right. Just went through and watched some of it and the interview. SMH! SKILES IS A FUN SUCKER!
