trolling now?


No. I’d start to doubt the management if they make a coaching change now.

We made the conf finals in spite of thibs. Not because of him.

There has to be a source for the team stupidity and we need to find it and root it out for next season.

Our turnovers were the difference and they were clearly from our players having to freelance every offensive play…we had no offensive identity , that’s Thibs

This performance on one good leg and one good hand? This loss is not on him.
Are you fans of the team or the player?

At this point, Thibs would be better off as an exhibit at the Natural History Museum. He’s been running the same offense and rotations since the Jurassic era!

Once again, Mike Malone got fired for less. It’s time to part ways with Thibs. A couple of the losses in this series were lost around the slimmest of margins, due to his awful coaching.

Imagine taking a team to the ECF for the first time in 25 years and the fan base wants you fired, Knicks fans acting like Philly fans now :roll:

Maybe Johnny Bryant would be interested in coming back as a hc

If I was Leon I'd be interviewing Bill Laimbeer too I think he'll make a championship NBA coach

Fanchise said it wasnt speculation and Thibs is very much on thin ice. Lets see if that in fact is the case. Fanchise knew the KAT deal a month before it happened. He most definitely has an inside connection.

If Thibs goes then we prolly know Leon believes I different cosch can take this squad (or a similar one) further.

They got by beating on an injured Knicks team last year. This season they clearly outcoached the Knicks.

Classic Loser mentality. Celebrating losing like it's actually winning. That's a fast track to nowhere. He must go. He only made adjustments when he was FORCED to and still did what he wanted (Benching Hart) yet only playing him 1 minute less! Lmao, you can't make that **** up

Loser mentality is not understanding that it takes steps to get to success and it doesn’t happen immediately…

Loser mentality would be to blow up the team after the first year of KAT and Bridges joining the team

Now is Rose's chance to separate himself from Thibs, if he brings him back and the same problems are there they will both be fired.

What they didn’t do is fire their coach and blow up their team because they lost in the ECF last year.
