Who is down under? Dragan Bender?

Simmons is Australian.

Bring him on board, get a great talent and more Australian fans

I don't want him fired, it won't fake a difference. However Sarver is impatient so I can see it happening.

I agree, and I think an overhauled roster and an offseason without negativity lurking going into the season would make things different.

But I will be a little surprised if he lasts if we don't make some huge comeback here. I don't expect his option to be picked up regardless.

But yeah, the casual long time fans will probably end up hating the team more if they end up trying to put all the blame on Hornacek.

Just tell me how Hornacek will react if he gets stuck on this 99 wins all season?
oh boy

i'm not a negative guy, but i can totally see this happening with our team playing like that.

There is no way this team isn't actively trying to play the worst basketball of all time. Unless they've all suffered severe head injuries at the same exact time...

This is more simple....Hornacek tries all the starting lineups and see if they win a game. Just that. He doesn't even make analysis anymore. It is embarrassing.

No, he looks at which lineups work best and studies the numbers and obviously the last one didn't work well. If your bench is going to get destroyed it doesn't help other. It's not that I don't want Warren to start, it's that I can understand why he doesn't.

What I know is that he doesn't know how to motivate players....the players don't want to play for him.

How do you know players don't want to play for him? I hear this thrown around all the time on this board as if it's fact, but nobody ever says how exactly they can tell the players have tuned him out.

Lowest half NBA record is 19. Getting too close for comfort on this.

alldayeveryday · Post #151 » by **alldayeveryday** » Mon Jan 4, 2016 3:26 am

Our franchise low is 24 at half. Over/Under?

grumpysaddle · Post #152 » by **grumpysaddle** » Mon Jan 4, 2016 3:26 am

7 for 39. Just lols.

SIXTEEN POINTS IN THE HALF

I dunno if I'd put money on that one.

Yeah this team definitely couldn't beat Beasley's squad. McDuh has truly outdone Lance Drawing Blanks and the Babbler

I can't see the over.

It almost seems like our hoop is smaller than the other team's, but of course they've shot it from both sides.

I just don't understand how EVERYONE could be shooting so bad. I mean, coaching might not be great, but no team EVER shoots like this regardless of coach.

It is ridiculous....our team is not THAT bad. I mean...we are playing against the Lakers without Kobe, we are not even trying. It's so obvious that our players want Hornacek out, if you want your coach and you know that he is on the line you fight for him. They want him out tonight.

4-0 run!
