you're not wrong but your comment really doesn't mean anything without context. is any coach on this planet suppose to make this roster a winner? his first few yrs with the knicks they purposefully tanked, its on the record. they wanted to use MDA's system to raise value of scrubs to flip them and they wanted to rid themselves of contracts to make a splash for melo. that roster sucked on purpose his first few yrs there.

May not be his fault but why would you continue to play a system that exposes the very pinpointed weaknesses his system doesn't cover up ?

We suck at rebounding and defense, but his system calls for long shots that can't be rebounded nor can we get back in transition.

At what point do we hold the players accountable for playing defense? Or in our case, not playing defense? See my sig ffs. Our scrub team is never to blame for mistakes, just point at the coach I guess.

So is Mike going to let Pau get stiff and bring him in time to really jack his ankle up?

132 points to the Pelicans, 142 points to the Clips, and 110 points through three quarters to the Nuggets. It's as if this team is purposely trying to outdo themself.

Anyone know if MDA already scheduled his annual 30 minute defense seminar this year?

Now may be the time to use it. :lol:

Third might be attainable, but no way we get top 2.

Cooter has bad luck. You want someone that is good at wins cough cough.
