I could even get over his abysmal record in the right circumstances. If he was making decisions that I could understand. Settling on a rotation of 8 or 9 guys and playing them. Making sure that their best young guys, who they're presumably building on are always getting their minutes. Getting their most talented players the ball at the end of games. Hell, I'd even get over those things if I had any sense that they have improved as a team since the beginning of the season. Are any of those things happening? I watch his press conference after every game in which he always says the same thing, his players aren't good enough. He has a legitimate all-star. I don't believe their talent should be 20 games worse than the Houston Rockets. A coach's job is to get the most out of his talent. Kurt Rambis isn't doing that. Two years of this is enough. The guy can't coach.


Be careful man...

There are some people around here who think Rambis has done a good job and they will not allow you to rip on their golden boy like this.
"That's why the last two years weren't guaranteed," Walsh said. "Either way, he knew it could have happened either way."

Dorko comes back and AR15 goes back to being a benchwarmer. :lol: Only Rambis would do something like play Dorko over AR15. I doubt AR15 would of even got 5 minutes last night if Dorko didn't get injured.

There are things that are valid to critisize Rambis over like offensive and defensive schemes. Fine, I've got no problem with that. But getting on his nuts over Wes' and AR's playing time last night?Come on guys, you just sound like a bunch of whiny haters. Did you forget that Wes was recovering from an illness that cost him two games? Rambis said before the game that Wes was still weak from that. Did you forget that AR was sick himself and was questionable to even play last night?

Sweet bejesus when I saw the boxscore this morning I felt like crying when I saw Cardinal 4/8 from downtown. Typical, that.

Can someone explain to my why at last every minute of the game either Love or Beasley aren't in the game? I'm so tired of watching the beginning of 4th qtrs where both of these guys are on the bench, and either a lead or a close game gets away from us. Someone please explain it to me.

Very rare that the other team doesn't have at least one starter in the game at all times. With Rambis not so much...

So that means next season Wes will average 5 three's a game and 30 points.
