They did the same thing under Brad. You replace Ime, you know what's going to change?
Nothing. Absolutely nothing. You'll all be calling for the next coach's head. This is on the players. Not the coach. This is on that core 3 setting terrible examples by leading with selfish iso ball and demonstrating a lack of trust in their teammates.
No coach is going to fix what's a broken core and a broken team personality.
Brad fostered a team of individuals who learned they do not need to be held accountable. No coach in the entire league is going to change what's wrong with this team until Brad breaks up Tatum, Brown and Smart.
At this point, trade Brown, Smart, PP, Nesmith, picks, Schroeder and Horford. Go after Fox, that other player, and fill the roster out with competence.
Rebuild around Tatum and Rob. At the least you'll have a new energy on the team, a new core, a new personality

It absolutely is on Ime, too. He obviously doesn't play, but he's got a better roster than last year. We have no identity and we are playing the worse basketball I've seen us play in forever. The brand of basketball we play is bad! How did Brad do better with a far worse roster(Grant was awful, Kemba as a starter, no Schroeder and Horford and Bobby again being hurt a missing a lots of games)???
1) Agreed that this year's roster is better, but just barely
2) Last year's team only went .500 and lost in 1st round
3) Our roster is a tad better - so what? Look around the league. Everybody else's roster is better too - many of them are significantly better.
4) Those years we made the conference finals (2017, 2018, 2020). The league (and especially the east) is WAY deeper, more competitive now than it was then
