im not a Billups fan but in today's NBA players have more say and without good VETS that can/should teach these younger less experience players we will most likely fail. i dont know what coach we can bring in and make a cultural impact but i do believe we need a system that is more on motion and movement than iso ball.

That last game feels like a nail in the coffin. It's not losing its how we lost.
I wouldnt be shocked if he lasts the rest of the year but also get a weird gut feeling he will be axed once they return home. Maybe the gut is wrong.

And to add Portland has been blown out in 5 of their last six games and tonight is looking like a likely blowout.
At some point you need to worry about how losing by lopsided margins will affect the young players ( and management needs to worry about the fans losing interest and stop watching).
