Ja had like a 35 usage rating :lol: Brooks kept eating. I hate watching Memphis, but it was impressive how young and competitive they were. Jenkins is an amazing adjustment coach. Rajakovic was his go to guy, so I'm hopeful that we're going to get similar in game coaching to Nurse but with more discipline using challenges and better player-relations.

But if Scottie's livestreaming goes south next year...


:lol: That's pretty funny. I hated watching them too. I did enjoy watching them before, until this year.

Nurse was seen as a player development move as well at the time.

Every coach is coming in to try and win. Darko will be no different.

Can't be worse than the woefully bad Nurse was on offense. If he's creative that's bad news for Pascal and FVV. We have a team that's not sold on offensive structure. He' ll have work to do.

What could we possibly offer to Charlotte, other than Scottie, for the 2nd overall pick?

No crap but Nurse worked his way up and was an internal hire. He also inherited a conference finalist team. This isn't the same thing at all.

Ah, we have reached the point where we think Nurse was a bad coach.

Our roster had poor offensive cohesion and talent. That is not Nurses fault and Darko is gonna have the same problems.

conference finalist team? We had not made the conference finals in 3 years at that point and we had lost 10 straight playoff games against that team lol

We just sent out a FRP for Poeltl. Towns is the last guy I'd want on this team. LOL.


I'm still happy with the acquisition of Poeltl, but Siakam for Towns just seems like a parallel move. I do think Siakam would help Minny a whole lot more than KAT would help the Raps.


KAT is an elite clutch shooter and will be perfect for Barnes because he doesn’t sit in the paint.

Poeltl is unplayable in big games. I would still sign him but he is not needed in a closing lineup.

Darko helped JJJ to become a DPOY so I think he can help KAT.


Laughable post!
