Another from Stan at Bright Side: ""The hard thing I think for fans to realize sometimes is 'what roster move'. You can't just go out there and take your pick of who you want. It's not that easy. It's not like a buffet or a smorgasbord where you can just be like 'you know what, we'll take uh, we'll take a big seven-footer who can post up'. It's not as easy as it sounds especially most of the talk you hear is probably bull **** for lack of a better word. Every team would love to make roster moves to get better. I just think the reason not too many of them happen is because it's difficult. And if you look at it, how many roster moves actually really do make teams better. There's always a risk
I think we also can't lose sight of the fact that we were picked to not make the playoffs this year and we're doing OK in the big picture. I hate to say that if that's a let down for some people.
Like I said last night, Memphis, Oklahoma City. We're not really more talented than those teams anymore and it's our ability to play together and maybe our experience that allows us to beat them. We've got to just keep fighting to be cohesive on both ends of the court and be as confident and as effective as we can. I don't know that roster moves are - I don't know how many exciting one's are out there. That's the biggest thing. You never know what's possible.""
We are so used to hearing platitudes and null-value statements from athlets and coaches, it's downright jarring when someone answers truthfully
