so i cant say we need a change of coach?
so i have to like the way we play our offense (with and without rudy)?
so i have to like his substitutions?
so i have to like the ineptitude to change the way to defend the pick and roll all season? (and season before)

reads my post, i like Hollins, but i like more the team, and if his contrat ran out, and hes not the best coach in the league (agree???) why we cant try another coach? sure, we can still have him (obviusly there are other reasons why Pera and Co. didnt sign him) and if that were the case, im ok with that.

the year before with a healthy griffin we lost in the first round (could not defend the pick and roll with a healthy griffin). We have lucky griffin and westbrook were injured. if we played spurs in the first round,you r not saying that, couse u only defend him because WCF.

so i can say u r in the bandwagon that likes hollins because hes a good guy/coach and we make the wcf, and u dont trust in the new managment.

AND for your last coment, NOBODY FIRED HOLLINS!

Lol. I never said you had to like him, or what he does.

I said that your basis for wanting him gone is inaccurate and completely unjustifiable when you stack them up to his achievements this year. I have no problem with you not thinking Hollins is the best man for the job. You are not alone in that opinion. What I do have a problem with is you rolling out a list of inconsequential gripes you have with his coaching style that, for the most part, did nothing to stymie our success this year.

Oh and since you brought it up. No, I don't trust the new management and I think they will run this club into the ground with their analytic nonsense. They are business men, nothing more. All the evidence points to them not caring about wins, but simply about keeping the books clean.

And no, I am not defending Hollins because we made the WCF. I am defending him because he is a good coach, he brought us to our best regular season EVER, and he literally gave this team the identity it is proud for.

And lol to you for even saying that you think we would have had issues with a healthy Griffin and Westbrook. You, my friend, are a living, breathing, walking, epitome of the term, bandwagon... :lol:

1) Yes, we can beat the Spurs. We were two OT wins away from being 2-2 instead of 4-0. Even Gave 4 was close. We were 2-2 with them in the regular season series, don't forget..

2) No, I am not spiteful. I just don't understand the sudden animosity towards Hollins that surfaces suddenly when we say we are not going to renew his contract.
