They seem to have come to a decision.
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.

- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.

Five games in, attended one and I can honestly say I don’t care to follow this team until they get their act together. Very disappointing. My fandom has let me down.

Weltman just didn't do a good job of putting the roster together. Bane probably wasn't worth that haul. A player like Norm Powell would've been cheaper. Tyus wasn't a good fit.

repeat of the Hennigan tenure, team doesnt reach contender level. GM doesnt get fired when he shouldve, and in order to protect his job he mortgages our future

Weltham shouldve been fired years ago. Now we're short 4 1sts

those words from Mosley at the timeout is everything "forget about what happens on that other side of the ball, sit down and defend". I get it, I really do, but no wonder why this team has sucked on offense for years. He can't talk about both sides in one timeout?

Paolo is taking way too many tough shots for someone who should be getting easier looks with Bane on the team
