Anyway regardless of last night - I'll admit Spo seems like a decent guy that takes accountability and has good relationships with his players BUT :

1) He's been unable to maximize his 3 best players FOE YEARS (when have you ever seen both Jimmy Bam and Herro excel at their roles at the same game?)

2) He's been WAY TOO STUBBORN WITH SMALLBALL - for years now we've seen the downside of playing too small, yet he's still not budging.

3) He's EXTERNALLY ROBOTIC WITH HIS IN-GAME ADJUSTMENTS - often take the hot player out, gets him out of Rhythm. Often overplays undersigning players extended minutes for no good reason.

4) VERY UNCREATIVE with his offensive sets - you never see us run anything surprising.

5) VERY questionable input on personnel - it's common knowledge he's largely responbile for the awful Duncan Contract that's been killing us for years, He approved the Lowery contract AND the Rozier trade which is starting to also look chitty.

Iv'e been seeing these trends FOR YEARS, last night was just the straw that broke the camel's back.

I still think he's probably above average overall, but not top 3 and definitely NOT "BEsT CoAcH In tHe NbA!!!"

Come at me


You're a moron and the worst poster on this board

Not overrated, but too wedded to small ball and the front office enables it.
