Single guy with lots of disposable incoming living near NYC "babysitting" young guys that want to party. Yeah, that sounds like something Vince wants to do (ask Antoine Wright) All the FGA's he wants with no pressure for winning. That means Vince can put up some of the prettiest stats in the league which will feed his ego and his fans claims that he is on the same level as Kobe. The interesting thing to me is how high Vince can up his trade value. Considering Thorn's history of making lopsided trades, I want to see Vince putting up 30, 6 & 6 for half a season.
You're right, we're rebuilding with young players and with a simpler, more energetic game. But the Nets can't afford to say that yet, or all the fans and media will quit on the team. Maybe you and I are willing just to see Yi and Lopez grow, but most people, and the writers who write for the fans, mostly want the team to win. Until the team learns to play together, without VC we'll be worse than those pathetic Knicks. Are you sure you want that?
Knicks aren't my concern. If the Nets can get value that will make the Nets a better team in the future, then Nets must trade Vince. Of course, that's only if Ratner really cares about building a Nets team that can compete for an NBA Title.
A new coach may bring something diffrent. D.Anthony is a MUCH better coach than thomas, so personaly i can't agree with your opinion.
The entire statement you quoted is past tense so a change in coaches doesn't effect it That said, the Knicks still have the most hilariously dysfunctional PF/C combo in the league with ZBo and Curry. It will take more than good coaching to overcome that
Management knows this. If they wanted something different, they would bring in someone else. Frank will not change. The most miserable I ever see Frank is when he gives up on the front end of a back-to-back and puts in the scrubs. He absolutely hates having to sacrifice today's game for any possible future benefit.
