Tonight's game... man, it's tough to defend Nate's decision making after that. Awful substitutions, and the players out there just seem like they are winging it. No cohesion, no flow. Not continuing to feed the ball to a hot Martell in the 3rd was criminal. Something's got to change. This team is too good to be run out of their own building like that.
I hope the change is done soon, I don't want this season to go to waste just because of the coach being a fucking retarded ape.
The Blazers offense looks totally disjointed. We're just a bunch of guys taking turns going one on one...and sometimes we'll get an open look at a 3. No fast break points, no hitting cutters to the hoop. Every team we play gets a lot more easy looks than us. I also do not understand the personnel Nate chooses to play. Why not play Joel when Greg got into foul trouble? With no Joel/Oden, the Hawks were just going in and dunking at will.
Don't forget that once he did put Greg Oden in the game, he put him in for LaMarcus Aldridge and left Travis Outlaw in there as a PF. Horrible, just fucking horrible.
Adleman is getting the job done with Hayes at center, and Nate cannot get the job done with Aldridge, Oden and Pryzbilla.
We have got to be the worst team in the league about going away from the hot hand. Webster hits 8 straight points, then doesn't get the ball the rest of the quarter.
Yeah Nate fails to realize you go with the hot hand. Rudy scored 16 of the first 20 4th quarter points against the Nuggets in the 4th as we built a lead, then decided to go away from him as we lost.
You guys have to listen to his post game comments: http://radiotime.com/WebTuner.aspx?StationId=34354&
I'm waiting for Tince to come tell ya'll what idiots you are and how Nate is an incredible coach. You see guys it was a moral victory that's what you all are missing. McMillan knows that to win a ring you have to be the moralest team. Just ask Magic Johnson and James Worthy talk about sterling moral character and championships there you go. Or perhaps you recall the 1989-90 Pistons the "Choir Boys of the NBA" Their sheer moral character ran other teams out of the building especially recently canonized Saint Lambeer.
