I still can't believe we were able to get rid of an inefficient chucking no defense player for Kawhi lite. What a lopsided deal!

HopelessKnick wrote:Unfortunately I expected this: Thibs desperately trying to limit Kolek's minutes as much as possible to make himself not look bad. All season long he pretended like outside his 6.5 man rotation no one is playable....despite many suggesting Kolek could easily handle 10-15 minutes off the bench as a decent backup while sparing JB, Mikal,Hart some minutes....now that we see that Kolek is indeed a capable 10-15 minutes backup it is about damage control for Thibs.... With JB, Deuce and Payne out he still found a way to play Kolek only 17 minutes while he had the highest +/- on the team.

A guy that has produced 29 assists and only a single turnover !!!!!!!!!!! can't crack the 20 minutes....all while Payne, Wright and other scrubs can easily get to 30+ minutes.

Get Thibs out of here ASAP. He is killing the team in so many ways it's disgusting.


Obi was right.

People kept complaining as if our coaches sabotaged the careers of frank, obi, RJ, knox. And none of them have been thriving on their new teams. They're all losing players on their new teams or out of the league.

Giannis is one of the greatest players ever who is awful at basketball. He's the rare case of hitting 30, losing athleticism, more nagging injuries AND career worst free throw shooting and 3 point shooting that makes Ben Simmons look like Craig Hodges. Dude is deep fried.

Those were trash tanking teams that’s why. How do you not know the difference? This is a playoff team where the coach is running the starters into the dirt causing injuries before the playoffs… again. This is a false equivalency. Par for the course for Thibs stans

He’s a 3x all star 2x all nba player. Objectively a better player it’s not even up for debate lol. Then again these are the same people that said Rj Stackhouse is better than Anthony Edwards and Ja Morant. Not serious people :lol:

Randle and RJ are the same damn player. Randle can be the better of the two losers if that makes you happy. Most of us are over it. There was a thread made specifically for this crybaby discussion that will not go away because trolls. It would help if that rule was followed because lately the crying is bleeding into every thread again. No one gives a shyt about either player. No one gives a shyt about last January anymore. No one cares about Frank/Obi etc anymore. Just the board cry baby troll. t's quite pathetic really.

That 2017 team had Melo, KP, Derrick Rose, Noah, Lee. From the infamous they saying us and the Warriors are a superteam quote, they were not tanking. The next season they were competing for a playoff spot until KP got injured.

How are all these injuries from being run into the ground? Thibs haters foaming at the mouth again

Every "argument" from a hardcore Thibslobber is basically a straw man, red herring, false equivalency.

They're just out here clowning around. You'll wear yourself out if you take them seriously.

Engaging them is like trying to teach quantum mechanics to a toddler who just wants to play with his toy blocks.....Just walk away and let him play. :lol:

Very glad Thibs started the proven vet over a rookie. Thibs haters are mad thibs decision resulted in a win. Got people rooting for losses because they have agendas. Hate to see it.

that's simply untrue. there are people in this thread besides melo that feel the need to re-litigate this by **** on randle and propping rj up. which is why i said what i did. melo takes all the blame because he's the only one not pretending he isn't doing what he is doing. i can't with the self righteousness around here this year lol
