    This team is too laid back. They all say they love stotts so much but you know that dude doesn't yell at them at all. He's the type to be like "no it's okay guys let's just get them next time" after a 40 point blow out

    This team needs to make its money on defensive pressure and assists. They aren't talented or big enough on defense to just stand with one foot in the paint and lock it down and own the boards. They aren't talented enough individually to break people down one on one save for Dame and CJ.

    THIS! If he spent half as much effort yelling at his players as he does bitching to the refs, we'd have a winning record right now.

    Of course, that's why they all love him. He doesn't discipline them and he lets them do whatever they want. That's why we have players constantly doing stupid shit or trying to do way more than they are capable of. It made more sense to coach that way early last season when we were in full rebuild mode and no one expected anything out of us. Then we realized we were much better than anyone could have hoped, and started believe we could achieve more. Once that becomes the case, you'd think Stotts would alter his coaching a little, but he seems to be in the same mode of "let's let players play so they can realize their abilities and develop their games," but the rest of us are wanting more.

    omg... we've given up sixteen 30 point 1st quarters.

    A Plumlee post up is as good as a turnover about 98% of the time. Grow some balls and tell him to stop it, Terry.
