So you don’t expect a coach to bench players for poor defensive play?

The last decade happened under their watch. I'm all in for a change of ownership.

I wouldn’t be opposed but I think the bigger problem is Martins. The Devos’ are completely hands off from what it appears and they do spend money. If we had Pat Riley instead of Martins things would be completely different.

You bench the starters to make a statement the way great coaches like Pop do. Wholesale substitutions to send a message.

True, but if we had ownership like Mark Cuban he would have never let things be this bad for this long.

Looks like expectations came back to earth after beating a tanking OKC team, Wizards twice (once without RW), and a weirdly inconsistent Heat team.

No argument here but there aren’t many Mark Cubans in the world.

This is what I’m talking about in the Cole thread.

Throw away stats or results. I don’t care right now.

His attitude is refreshing and I hope it is infectious. Most of all I love his never ending confidence and short term memory when it comes to mistakes. He never seems to get down on himself. He can launch an air ball and it doesn’t rattle him. He still has his head up high.

I hope he and Fultz spend a lot of time together.


Anthony has much more confidence in himself than Fultz does. At least that's how it appears.

Cole just might not be all that talented :o

Love the irony of our commentary team waxing lyrical about the addition of Curry for the 6ers, shooting and spreading the floor ... When do we ever add guys like that in FA?

How the hell was Curry WIDE open for another 3 again???
