Like I said I’ve been so bbusy lately I haven’t able to sit down and watch and a game fully through. These guys are BORING, I couldn’t even stomach watching a whole game, no one was hitting shots . This team is so bad that’s its going to take more than a few substantial moves to make us a playoff team. The Lakers are now out of this funk and have a ton of cap space yet here we are . This is going to be one of the biggest off seasons in a long time , this is it for MCD

McDonough needs more time, he is working his magic. Give him a couple more years, everything would be niiiiice. We are rebuilding so we need to show patience. Those players are young, imagine them when they are in their prime. And we are gonna be agresive in FA.

That's insulting for Ulis. I hope we don't even give QO to Payton this summer.

I do not think so, but who knows.
I think he speaks about himself and he probably has another couple of names in his mind.

Yeah, I agree about Payton.

He has played some good games for us, but the last couple of weeks he has been terrible.

He is not gonna get a good offer at all if he continues to play like that.

You could say the same of 75%+ of this roster if they all we in a contract year.

Too bad they are not. I see really only 3 guys with positive trade talent, the rest it’s either negative or based on sinking potential.

It’s like that saying ‘so ugly you have to tie a Porkchop around her neck to get a dog to play with her’..... draft pick = pork chop,
play with = trade
What ? Me Worry ?

Well I like pork chops, and I dont like giving them away, but you are right. Can a different coach make a real impact on the play of Bender or Chriss? There is no way they can both look this bad after showing at least the promise they showed both before the draft and in their rookie year. Both had plenty of upside, now both look terrible, how does that happen? Can the right coach fix this, or are they just lost?

C'mon, in 5 years, he's shored up 1 or 2 positions, SG/SF...I mean they still all need to learn to play D, and the SFs need to learn to shoot 3s, but we are good on one position on one side of the ball, and good at another position at part of one side of the ball. So we have about .75 of our 5 starters solved..
