They ARE winning now. Check the standings. Any coach that wins now at the expense of the future won't be in the league too long.
Okay, winning MORE. I don't think that anybody would accuse the Raps of being an elite team.
And I think, and I'll admit that I don't have stats or anything, that coaches balance their playing time, and that younger players usually forego starting jobs and shots to older, more experienced, currently better players.
I mean, I think it would be good for Bargs' experience level to be in the game right now, but he's not there. Because Sam wants the win.

The bad refereeing has cut both ways...we've benefited just as much as Portland.
And tb33, this is by far the most arguing about calls that I've seen in a game thread this season. The reason? Because it has been awful. Way too many questionable calls against both teams.

**** your asterisk.

Shhh. The way you're talking, you'd think we were even or possibly ahead in free throws.
