Back to depression again. It’s been 8 years of a waste of great collection of talent, two MVP seasons, and one trip to the Finals because of piss poor coaching. Get this fixed Presti, FFS.

Who does fit? Oladipo and Sabonis didn’t fit. Now Patterson, George and Melo don’t fit.

I dunno. What is there left to say. I'm numb to our offense now, I don't care, maybe it does boil down to Russ. But whatever. We can score enough, enough of the time, to get the 5th seed, even with this offense.

The rotations and the switching though. Mind boggling.

And that BKN pick is starting to get tempting.

I'm having thoughts about it too.

On paper it seems like the right thing to do.

Are we making the finals with things as they are? No (As in, Donovan isn't getting canned)

So is PG staying? No

Would a top 10 pick be nice? Yes

Would it be even nicer considering Russ will keep us in the 5-8 seed range for the foreseeable future, and top end young talent is something we are and will be devoid of? Certainly.

Would I want to trade away the chance of this team accomplishing something and then keeping PG away, as unlikely as that may be? Considering we got Russ to re-sign based off the talent we got him? I dunno. I guess there's only a few weeks until we know for sure what's going to happen anyway. I don't think we will trade him, if even just for Russell's sake. But it's getting increasingly tempting.

Yeah, I've held off but right now it's around the 8th pick. I'd take either of the Bridges or someone who fell. I'm researching now and its the first time in a month I've really enjoyed looking into something new regarding the NBA. This team won't accomplish anything real until the coach is changed, but a high pick and a coach to develop him would be nice.

Let's all take a moment and appreciate Donovan playing Grant with the starters and playing him at SG.

What a ...
I actually predicted him going to that move, he was getting obliterated by anyone he was guarding, but considering he's a PF/C, you cant blame it on him defending guards at perimeter ...

What a disgrace of coaching we have ...

It is amazing how uncoached we look. We have no idea what we're gonna do coming down the court.
One possession Adams came to set a pick for Russ up top only to get caught in no man's land because as Adams was setting the pick, Russ passed it to George on the wing. So much for Donovan's 'system' we just have to run.

It's also quite amusing how Anthony has been taking more and more trash shots, yet the media keeps pushing the spot up narrative.

If you get bored, check the Westbrook thread. New guy, same "doesn't make teammates better" and I'm getting ready for bed. :lol:

Trade PG.

You can't make this up. We didn't even score 90.

when melos and PGs shot don't fall, okc are dead in the water, they need some more shooting.

The hometown broadcast was borderline unintentionally hilarious last night. Ferg would get toasted on offense or give up a horrible foul "this is great on the job training for T. Ferg". They seriously went to that line multiple times.
