That part I get. But you don't put losing ahead of development.

Fiz or any coach just doesn't throw their 5 worst players out there for most of the game.

Players are trying to win. Coaches are trying to win.

We both watch the same team, now say it with a straight face these guys are trying to win. :rofl:


Players try no matter what. If this is Fiz trying to win...I'm worried. He's stealth tanking. He HAS to be!

I really don't see any combination that puts w's on the board, but I get it.....players and coaches may want to win, but the majority of these guys don't defend, some don't bother trying. Some take awful shots on top of not defending or passing or moving with the ball.

Fiz is actually running zone in the NBA. :rofl:

Frank is part of both the best 2 man and 3 man combo we have. Imagine if he actually could play offense.

If Luke plays well enough from now, Kanter can expect to come off the bench with comments like this:

“If we’re losing, it’s a problem,” Kanter told reporters about his removal from the starting lineup for Luke Kornet. “If this adjustment is going to get us a win, cool. But if not, there’s a problem.”

Flat soda is our bridge coach ala Mark Jackson. He can practice his ra ra speeches and culture building until we’re ready to actually compete. I’ve come to terms with that.

Kanter can ask for a buyout, or actually defend. I would prefer a buyout.
