Gambo gonna pull a muscle with how much water he's carrying for the organization there lol. Ishbia can't even do PR spin correctly without it sounding cartoonishly slanderous.

That Gambo report is wild, it's like they're trying to end his coaching career on the way out.

Re: ATL - Bud Out in Phoenix
Also, do we need to start sending Wes Edens Christmas cards for saying F-no to Ishiba when Lasry was on the way out?

They have just fired two recent NBA Finals winning coaches in consecutive seasons. Of course they are going to do everything they can to spin it as anything other than a personnel problem. They aren’t going to fire the owner for assembling one of the worst rosters in the league.

This was an important post you made. I forgot that Ishbia was tossing dollar bills this way. We dodged one there.

Re: ATL - Bud Out in Phoenix
Bud needs to take a year or two off. Decide if he wants to keep doing this or not.
If he wasn't so reserved on his public commentary, I think he'd be great as an analyst on ESPN. There is a brilliant basketball mind in there, if he decided to share and monetize it.

Not even close. At worse Haslam is Kohl with a bigger checkbook.
Unless Ishbia pulls a rabbit out of a hat with that roster, he's already in Dan Snyder territory.

Re: ATL - Bud Out in Phoenix
Are the Bucks still paying Budenholzer?
If yes, does that mean Budenholzer is collecting two coaching salaries for not coaching now?
If yes again, where does one apply to be in this position?

We are not paying him
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

Re: ATL - Bud Out in Phoenix
Nurkic was the starting center for Vogel, and they had a good defense. Bud comes in, scapegoats Nurkic while refusing to have a conversation with the man, and he's eventually dumped. Suns defense gets even worse without Nurkic. How is this coaching? Bud has become incredibly lazy. His teams don't practice. I'm shocked that so many want to defend his laziness. He was a good coach at one time, but he's not that guy anymore.

KD played 16 more games for Vogel. They had a winning record with KD playing, slightly worse rate but I'm not sure how much it matters if the players don't want to be coached.

And Adrian Griffin went 30-13 with this roster last season. Check and mate.
