I bet Mullens' jersey is just flying off the shelves by now.

If I were head coach I would make these bastards play a full court D on every single defensive possession.

If they aren't going to play hard I would run them into the ground.

Matt carroll gets a call on shot he was never going to make. it doesn't even feel like anyone is playing anymore. Reggie at point guard..hmm, I wish the refs would just call it so everyone could go home and practice not sucking.

I'm not a fan of the stat at all, but Reggie is currently at -31.

Is that the worst so far this season?

Edit: -33 now thanks to Jerry Shithouse.

This team is just very poorly coached, especially on defensive fundamentals. But I guess you have to do that when rebuilding, because a good coach would probably not be able to handle the constant losing.

If we get the first pick and Davis, we may need to make a coaching adjustment. We just can't start him off with poor coaching, we would need a good staff in here to get him, Kemba, and Biyambo headed in the right direction.

Reggie is not really a small forward, and he is definitely not a point guard..every once in a while he imitates an ok shooting guard. He has sucked these past two games but the coaching staff has put him in a bad situation.

I honestly do not think it is poor coaching. Silas knows what he is doing. Substitution problems? Oh yes. We just do not have any talent. We could land Davis, and sign an above average FA and still be a 20 win team next year. The NBA isn't like college. A coach is only as good as its players (unless you are a fantastic motivator, and even then I don't think that would help this team ). Hence why Phil Jackson will not coach a team without the likes of Kobe Bryant or Michael Jordan.

i try to care about Bismacks rebounding stat bein low but I find that I don't. I mean we only gave up 6 offensive rebounds tonight thats really good (besides the fact that they were making so many shots they didnt get a lot of chances lol). as long as SOMEONE is getting the rebound i dont really care.

So Silas starts DJ to play him 10 mins? and puts Kemba back on the bench? what a complete buffoon

Eoghan · Post #51 » by **Eoghan** » Thu Apr 5, 2012 3:53 am

Kemba's knee tendinitis flared up. I wonder if ain't pussyfooting like good ole Bobcat legend Tyson Chandler sometimes. /baseless rumor.

Kemba asked to come out. He said "Goddamn I can't believe I'm even in the NBA, I suck so bad. If I stay out here any longer, people will catch on to it!"

I'm sure Higgins uses the same excuse to stay off the court.

I was keeping up with it on ESPN Gamecast and noticed Kemba started the 2nd half and DJA was still stuck on 10 minutes, I thought hmm Silas did the right thing tonight and played the hot hand only to find out later that that wuss DJA was hurt. :roll:

Unlike Augustin, Walker actually competes on every possession. Walker has WAY more upside. Whether he lives up to it is up to him, but atleast Walker competes.

That's entirely subjective.

EDIT: Not that it's a problem, you just need to be more up front about it.

I believe that Kemba is our guard of the future but I refuse to start hating Dj for it.

Dj has been a solid point guard for us and I wish him well where ever he ends up.
I still think he will end up with a better career than Felton as a solid starting point guard.

Yeah. Tendinitis is weird, I've dealt with it myself, but DJ's seems to flair up when there's nothing to play for (like getting blown out by the Hawks). I'm just sayin', It's something I'm gonna pay more attention to is all.

Post #60 » by **Diop** » Fri Apr 6, 2012 12:34 am

he's missed some training sessions with it and his been struggling for a little while.
But DJA doesn't want to go on the injury list, I'm sure he's worried about his next contract.

He's had a bad year with injuries, but I don't put DJ in the pussyfoot category.
