    What Nate said is accurate. It's also ancient history. He's had two years to come up with a different plan. He can't. Then he run's Miller out of town for Felton. Nice.

    Nate McMillan is possibly the worst point guard coach I've ever seen.

    Just saw this on a Milwaukee site. Scott Skiles discovered they traded Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and wants to know why everyone's picking on him.

    A rare notice from the zag side of town! If I can make it there, I'll make it anywhere.

    Andre Miller had two of his best seasons under Nate. Steve Blake had his best seasons. Luke Ridnour had his best seasons.

    None of those guys are even close to being elite.

    Anyhow, Nate is speaking an obvious truth about the state of the franchise, and the bitchers and moaners will continue to bitch and moan no matter what he does or says.

    MaYbe Nate is hear about rumors about player trades for draft picks and thinks the organization needs to define its goal. Rebuild or playoff run. The beginning of the season was playoff run, but now it is about a possible rebuild effort.

    Rick Adelman hasn't coached in the playoffs in two years.

    Not that I'd expect you to know that, or even how to find out that information.

    I got banned from the Sonic board for saying Ridnour was playing like a wimp. By a week later many there began to say the same. If those were his best years, we definitely don't want him. They had to acquire Earl Watson to make up for his weaknesses. Ridnour couldn't drive and Watson couldn't shoot outside, but was a Jarrett Jack-like driver.

    As for Adelman, he was even more bland to watch play than McMillan, but since you were learning how not to wet your pants, I wouldn't expect you to know that or how to find out.
