Ok, 8 players with rookie contracts; none are any good except wall and maybe just maybe booker.
The franchise has no idea to get players that can defend the 3 defend pick and roll and just plain defend. This has been an achilles heel for YEARS
The offense is always a 1 to 2 man back to 1 go speed racer go game. No bbIQ on half court sets, just chuck and pray offense...wtf.. I really dont see why we have to be patience and suffer like this.
If the players were doing these things and competing, I can understand the patience; but these players doing this time after time after time; they are creating the impatience of fans.

Furthermore, How can you really know that your developing if your always losing.
Winning games is the best measurement to find out if you have developed or not.
Ernie and Ted are saying that its not about W's and L's.....WHAT???!!!!!!(the "young" players just care about there salary. When you preach that to them they not thinking about winning.
How else are the players suppose to be motavated to win if its not about that even when your rebuilding.
Now they feel like they can never win... The "this team is young" excuse is getting old and stale. I wish management would stop sugar coating this team like they are doing NOW

Fond of redundant threads and semicolons are you? How do you feel about online dating because I may have someone for you to meet. Or someones actually, but first how do you feel about Andray Blatche, also about bowleggedness? Do you prefer to eschew paragraph structure or are you more generally committed to a post-modern contempt for the printed word and indeed, meaning?

I think the "losing culture" argument is overused and overrated. The problem is our personal. We lack winning players. I don't view guys like Crawford, Young, and possibly McGee as winning players.

To be winning players you have to be motivated to win. When somebody sais "its not about W and L's" then you can see why this team has no motivation to win games.

A winning player does not buy into PR crap. Winning player always try to win.

Mack was from a winning program. Jes won overseas. Booker has the heart of a lion. I see the fight and motor in KS.

Wall was on a loaded team that should have gone all the way and didnt. That really made me wonder before he was drafted.

I dont know off the top of my head the winning history of all the other players but it looks like Nick, Dray and McGee dont have it.

Need more players that are winners and that have strong basketball fundamentals, work ethic, IQ and maturity. That is what you draft, trade for or pick up via FA or developmental league.

Linn has it. That is obvious.
