Because when he is out there teams feel resistance on the perimeter.. they're uncomfortable and uneasy. A large portion of fans just don't understand. He's the glue guy.. he's also the stopper.. he's also the leader.. he's the energy and hustle guy.. he's the high volume 3pt shooter.. that's 5 different guys. :lol: :lol:

It's completely broken. There is no coming back from this. They need complete overhauls of pretty much everything. I wouldn't even be surprised if the big 3 aren't safe either. The way this has completely turned like this is not normal.

Chicago going for 9 seed, Toronto and 76s have life now, because we are not likely to win again this season

I love Suggs. He's my favorite player... but this level of play cannot be explained by just Suggs being out. Yes, I believe he is a big part of it but that means that Mosley isn't a great motivator... that honor should go to Suggs instead.

This Magic team will head a very difficult road stretch. But this team's defense without Suggs really shows

Well and Mo too. But that team I just watched isn't the same team that was a top 5 defense.. not even close. Why?

It's over for Mosley.

It would be one thing if this team was losing games purely because they couldn't shoot and score.

But they're just flat getting out worked every single night. They're playing terrible defense and terrible effort on the glass and have been for two months.

If the culture/effort/energy/defense coach can't get his guys to do those things...

why didn't dell just tip that in he was by himself down there?....late game execution is just horrid man.....Mose....do you know how to attack a box and one defense? box and one usually is designed to take away the star player....did we set screens? did we cut at all? did we load up on the strong side or the other? it's crazy man, it's like whenever we see a defense other than just man we can't attack it....what are we doing in practice?

Coaching staff, training staff, medical staff, and front office... they all need to go. Mickey Mouse franchise otherwise.

It's because Wendell Carter isn't a smart basketball player.. he's a moron. That's why

If we're going to have antagonizing mods and posters I just won't post here anymore.


This place is going to be a ghost town in about 2 weeks anyway.

It's already trending that way.

They’ve quit on themselves more so than Mosely and most of the guys playing right now just aren’t very good.

I’m no Mosely fan but this team likely would have quit on anyone. But his in-game coaching and tactical acumen are just not good enough. Period.

But I’m not sure he’s gone. I’m thinking he survives this.
If you see something suspicious, say something suspicious.
