Any other coach would have us in the same 8th to 10th seed. :lol:

There's nobody on this team you're gonna point to and say, "well he has so and so, they should be better."

If we're firing start with the man that thought these contracts were a good idea, the same one that hired the coach many on here have hated for a decade...that person seems to be the ring leader

Spo OK’d all these contracts. You think Pat sits at the top making these decisions with no input from the coach? :lol:

Spo ok'ing contracts? When did that start? Dude might be underpaid

Man y'all wanna give Riley NO accountability at this point.

Injuries have def hurt Spo but he's made numerous gaffes that are absolutely inexcusable. Easily his worse season. And yes, many coaches have been fired for similar or lesser seasons.

I’m not saying fire spo. I’m saying if he were any other coach he would be fired. The team does not play smart basketball and that falls directly on the coach. If I were Riley, I would bring someone with more experience and knowledge in as an assistant coach to guide the players and work with Spo.

It’s not easy to be a long tenured coach in the nba. You get comfortable in your role and players begin to turn on you. It’s happened to the best of coaches, even Pops with Kahwi Leonard.

With that said, Spo needs to bring in a new perspective on basketball. What he is doing is not working. The heat can clean house, but if the foundation sucks anything new built on it is going to end with the same headaches.

On the contrary. You and contract the rat have this anti-Riley agenda that you try to push in every thread.

Riley definitely has to own this. He tried to get some top tier players and failed, as well as over paying on players with baggage like JJ (Best season was his contract year and he has regressed). Whiteside (has attitude issues from the start), and Waiters (ankle injury upon signing).

However, Riley has also built some amazing teams time and time again. As a result, Riley gets more slack than Spo.

Without Lebron, Spo has won 1 playoff series. Just 1. 2015-2016 season Heat beat the Hornets in the first round 4-3 series. That’s it.

Doc Rivers got the clippers in the playoffs with less talent in a harder conference and people still want to make excuses for Spo

But this is on him ! Not Spo. This is on Riley and Arison. In one of the best FA classes ever, we don't have cap space cuz we went all in on TJ, Dion, JJ, KO. Making the playoffs is irrelevant because even if we do we are getting swept. Bigger sin, is missing an opportunity to build a contender this summer. This what ya'll should be mad about.

Lol LA doesn't have less talent. They had at least two (Galinari, Tobias for most of season) players better than whoever our best player even is. Maybe three with Lou Williams

No Clipper have a better squad no question. He had Tobias Harris for half a season. Galinari is better than anyone on this roster. And if they strike out in FA, I don't expect them to repeat this. With average players, there's only so many times they can overachieve. Pat should have known that.
