Our starting lineup needs to be PP, JT, JB, RW3 + pick your 5th player. It can be carrot top for all I care.

It does zero good. ZEEEEEERROOOO to have Dennis out there instead of Pritchard cannibalizing minutes with the main unit, a guy who likely won’t live past the deadline and is gone in FA if so.

Take your long contract bets and play them like you have a future vision. Not a bunch of half measures, unless your plan is “get to the play-in”.

Who said that we should Tank?
They may be Right. This year is Not looking so good.


I’m not opposed to throwing this season out. If we can’t win clutch regular season games then forget about the playoffs if we get into the first round playing the 1st or 2nd seed (assuming a decent play-in showing), then assume we’re screwed.

My argument is that Dennis is a temp player and Pritchard is not. And not like Pritchard is a scrub, shares, pulls effort on defense and deserves respect on spacing.

Why aren’t we doing everything we can to figure out chemistry between PP, Jays and RW3? We’re not winning anything this year so band aid players aren’t doing much good.

Can you also coach the team tomorrow? We haven't had a head coach all season.

Just like Jaylen having 5 turnovers with 1 assist and 2 boards was brutal.

Just like Schroder was brutal.

Just like Al was brutal.

Just like Ime was brutal.

This board is asscheeks after losses

please don't lump everyone on here. Shak is never Brutal


oh i am for sure. i'm praying i can hold in what i really want to say about ime! YES THE PLAYERS WERE TERRIBLE but at what point this season is IME going to get a clue?!!!

Talking about development! HOW? WHEN THE 6ERS STOPPED TRYING WE GO ON A RUN, then they put in good players and the lead ballooned again! DEVELOP THEM WHEN THE OTHER TEAM IS REALLY TRYING!! We were up 20 the other day, they got in with only 3m left. WHAT?!

Play them when other people are playing poorly!!! I gave him that excuse early, the individual players were playing well, especially better than Ne and Pritch, I understood playing them. I SHOULD HAVE LISTENED TO YOU ALL ALONG, you pulled Ime's card early!!!

gah!!!!!!!!


(i haven't had coffee in 3 days, I think I'm losing it!)


:lol: i don't mind Ime but this cracked me up

Rob was pretty decent.

Not as good as his numbers, perhaps, as you argued above. But decent even so.

Good numbers but I thought he didn’t play well defensively. RW3 was out of position a lot tonight. Maybe that’s just me

One serious post for a minute, I thought Nesmith looked awesome, and it was against the Sixers starters.


hopefully in 6 or 7 games from now her can get another chance..

I think I’d be a pretty good coach, but I’d need zoya as lead assistant.

Seriously though, the double big **** needs to go.

I mean, What do we lose tomorrow if we start PP/Romeo/JB/JT/Rob tomorrow? I mean, what's worst that could possibly happen? Marcus is out. We're a mediocre team. I mean, why not play some of the other kids? What is the worst possible thing that could happen?

I got it.

PP and Romeo play well in a win. Ime believes he dreamed the whole thing. Goes back to Dennis and Al in the next game.

I like Pritchard Starting; along with JB, JT & Rob. Though, IDK who should be the 5th Starter? Grant maybe?

Tomorrow's Starters:
Starters: Pritchard - Brown - Tatum - Grant - R. Williams

I watched sporadically. But it seems that in Q4 Ime finally made the Popovich move of pulling all the starters, after which the reserves played pretty well.

He should have tried that already in the first quarter.

That said, the people Ime did play did OK for the last three quarters combined. They just didn't make up for the abomination of the first one.

If there’s nobody Horford, Brown and Tatum don’t know how to play against, it’s them.

Zero experience.

That is hilarious. He's stopped playing Marcus-Dennis together and now he's blaming himself.

Either Brad lit him up or he's been reading his press clippings. Or both.
The most charitable interpretation is that it's ethnic cleansing and massive war crimes.

Yeah first time all season he is taking responsibility. It still seems like he is throwing the team under the bus. He is basically saying the players weren't up for the game. How about you make adjustments during the game and make sure the team you are attempting to coach isn't getting outscored 27-2.
