Well he never really upgraded the team this offseason in a way even close to what it needed.

I'm not being dramatic, I'm sick watching this overhyped team. Watched 1 Q of the OKC game and it was obvious a blowout was coming..today I had to check the score before tuning in cause I didn't want to waste another couple hours of my time..glad I did. I have better things to do than care about this mess...if a big trade happens or maybe we sort out the lineup in an effective way I'll be back, but until then it's just self-abuse. BC will have to pull something off to save his job.

Exactly how I feel.

I won't let this team affect my study time.

No surprise that the most ardent Colangelo supporters are also Bargnani fans. Those two will always be linked.

But really Colangelo has been a complete failure here. 7 years, 1 winning season and just 3 playoff wins in his tenure. Other than the public speaking part, Bryan Colangelo is the George W Bush of GM's. Living off daddy's legacy, false bravado, profligate spending, hubris and plain old incompetence. The fact that it took 7 years before most people woke up to how much of a fraud he was is just plain sad. We're finally making progress.


really, and you are a mod???
BC is a 2 times EOY and Raps have right now best team (most talent) they had since he started here.
Grow up, it is only the 5th game this season and in 4 they have been very close!!!

Some people will still bring up that "he still has credibility around the league" argument to justify keeping him.

The EOY was in his first season. What has happened since then? We went from a 3rd seed to a 6th seed to missing the playoffs for four straight seasons. If thats not on the GM, then I don't know what to say.

He is guaranteed gone if they don't do well this year. Better make a deal soon and send Jose and Bargnani out of town for a couple of players who can actually play defense and give a crap about winning.

It's everyone except Bargnani and BC's fault.

Funny that we are on our 3rd coach but still the same GM.

I think one of the reasons why you're seeing so many angry threads on here is because people
are completely sick of this team and need to vent they have reached their limit and it's all
because of that turd Colangelo.

Even if he magically gets us a legit swingman, he has to go.

No more Linas, Calderon, Kapono, Amir, Fieldsesque signings

He has to go!

its funny how we start every year with so much hype, we get upset from sources such as espn for predicting a 33 win season!! i hope im wrong because i want this team to succeed but the reality is BC has made our team so mediocre...

Haven't you learned that no matter who he brings in, it will always be his vision. His re-creation of the game to win another version of his championship.....exec of the year.

Sorry, I meant new blood as in a new GM.

At this point BC is a goner. My gut tells me he will try a hail mary and make a block buster trade (Bargs?) in order to save his job.

The problem with BC is that all his big moves have made some sense, and could have worked, but they never have. He is great salesman. So although I wish for a turnaround, I feel a big trade could only further damage this teams future.
