Hire the best defensive coordinator available as a lead assistant...and hire an elite shooting coach...Mark Price type....Laimbeer just got a cushy desk job in the WNBA but there's Sheed, Ewing, Duncan, Ben Wallace, a lot of bigs who could help our rookies....I think Alajuwon is on the Rockets bench
Olshey's roster forces a guard-oriented offense. Wooden couldn't stand that, so neither can Walton. When Petrie cast off a bad miss from 30 feet while Walton was wide open under the hoop, Walton said, "I just can't play with such selfish players."
I’m stoned right now, but if I remember correctly; Holton, said the nets went on a 22-5 run, a 17-0 run, and a 8-0 run. As my good friend @dviss1 would say, tater tots needs to GTFO!!!!
I'm on board now. Putting my money into season tickets the last ten seasons....I've had about enough of open shooters with shit closeouts, clogged offensive paint, switch after switch after switch after switch of a little guy onto a big man and vice versa, and failed inbound plays. It might just be time for fresh schemes and ideas.
It's probably time for a new voice ... and let's be real, they don't really have the personnel to cover up for Damian and CJ's shortcomings on D. Damian has improved a little, but CJ seems worse (maybe?) But the complete lack of hustle and the constant iso-ball and the total lack of urgency we're seeing makes me think there's definitely some fatigue setting in with these players and whatever Stotts is selling. I wonder if it isn't time?
Losing double digit leads happens in basketball. But when it occurs on a nightly basis, sometimes multiple times in ONE game, that's all on the coach...
Let's get real, it's also a personnel problem. But whatever, Stotts isn't irreplaceable, and it's a lot easier to fire a coach than it is to dump a bunch of guaranteed salaries.
He definitely got the Grizzlies to play good defense. probably the most aggravating thing about this whole thing is you know they're not going to do jack shit about the coaching staff or any players on the team.
Idk man, they shitcanned Nate during the season, but that was after the players revolted against him.
