When will the bleeding stop? What will fix it? We seem to be headed towards another 41-41 season and that's not good enough for me.
yet you wanna keep players like outlaw. get rid of sergio, bayless, frye and outlaw....and you will have a playoff team. its funny, ive been saying this since novembe...now most are realizing this current roster is simply not good enough for playoffs in the west. if we wanna get in...we need a trade. theres no way we pass any of those in front if us wout a deal. jazz will pass when they get healthy.
I hear that Roy guy is pretty good. I also wouldn't mind seeing a trade this year to clear up the clogs. I'd also like to see a real backup PG. We have two: one who dribbles and one who shoots... it'd be nice if we could just trade both for one who can do both well enough to be worth a damn. Maybe we tighten the belt and do some three-man rotations: Roy/Rudy/Blake, Martell/Batum, LMA/Oden/Joel. Quit dicking around with Sergio and Frye and Outlaw, and just set a tighter rotation already. We seem to lose continuity when Blake and LMA are out of the game.
We were losing WITH Roy. And we beat the Cs without him. Of course, we need Roy back. But injuries happen. Last year, his injuries hurt us too. And his time off for a death in a family. These things are going to happen and we still have to find a way to win or we won't be in the playoffs.
Remember during the Sheed days where people were pissed that we were constantly first round and out? Nowadays, everyone WISHES we can could get to a first round and out. Sigh.
Everyone wishes we could make the playoffs to get some experience. They don't wish for a consistent first round and out. Also people were pissed by the first round and outs because of the veteran experience on those squads. I understand about leaving those little things out.
I wonder if our recent play has anything to do with us being the youngest team in the league? (Good or Bad)
It doesn't matter if we lost 10 of the last 11 as long as the cake bakes, right? Let the cake bake..... Signed, Kevin Pritchard
I wouldn't eat that cookie with your mouth....lol...you shoulda left a small section of frosting off the top, for his "bald spot"...lol
That's my least favorite excuse on this board. If that's the reason we are losing, then trade for some vets. The Bulls have demonstrated that just drafting young guys and waiting for them to arrive isn't a winning formula and will usually blow up on our face.
It might be "we lost the game because the Blazer team plane landed late in [insert city here]." That's a Mike Barrett special.
But wait. I thought the hardest part of our schedule was over? What's the excuse this week? Brandon Roy? Inexperience? Or is it that our offense sucks and teams are figuring out how easy it is to stop us Or is it that we have no PG that can get into the lane and finish Or is it that we are charmin soft Or is it that our all defensive coach can't teach defense Or is it that one of our main reserves has no concept of team basketball
How so? We just played Boston, New Orleans and LAL. How is that an easy schedule? We play Detroit next. After that, the schedule eases up. The remaining games are against weaker teams, as a whole, than the schedule the team has already played.
