This can't be true because I was told Fred was a culture killer. :lol:

It is a bit concerning because these issues never existed a couple of years ago.

i heard rumblings of this the last cpl years of "friends of friends" who work for the org. Heard a bunch of other stuff to but I thought it was all heresay because a lot of the guys that were on the team seem likeable and professional. Now when a new player comes out and says something like this, I tend to believe it.

Dario was brought in to help Scottie enjoy basketball again, and I think that is working. Scottie looked so miserable last season. IMO the problem is Pascal; he never seemed like the type of guy who wants to lead. Fred was a better leader but I don’t think the young guys respected him as much. This is the season to rebuild the team and give it its new chapter, and I do think Pascal has to go to make it Scottie’s team.

He's right.

Too many dudes playing for their next contract or just thinking about the contract and future destinations instead of putting the team above all else. Trading 3 pending FA's did some good in rectifying that, though. Need to do more on that front. Keep shaking up the core and collecting prospects and picks. It will eventually fall into place this way.

You got a bunch of dead salary on the roster as well that needs to be cleaned up. Lots of work left to do. But at least work is starting to be done.

Please do tell more about this other stuff you heard…

I don't like his ball dominant play but here he is not afraid to speak the truth, unlike our head coach.

Unfortunately Masai created a scenario where players are looking after themselves with these deals all expiring together. Team? That's down the list somewhere.

You had Flynn moping on the bench for seasons despite being a horrendous point guard who did not belong in the NBA. Very glad he's gone. Gotta keep punting people like that off the team.

Masai has publicly mentioned this is the approach he takes with his own (drafted) players. This mindset has been enabled from the top

He's fine off the bench, we've got more options now. If not, move him.
