    They are very young team and they lack a leader at this time. Not sure Malone is the type of coach who can motivate certain players.
    And more importantly....they were not patient enough to give it a chance. Plus I think Malone likes the spread 4 option with Gallo better.

    They traded Mychal Thompson for Steve Johnson in the off season. And Walter Berry for Kevin Duckworth (in December of 86).

    You see Jokic try and guard the pick and roll last night? Nurkic ain't much better either, but he's in a conservative system that allow him to sit back in the paint and chill. If they were on the court together, that wouldnt work, and obviously Nurkic is too talented to be a backup, so he was justifiably upset.

    Bollocks. If Wes doesn't go down to a fluke injury that trade makes us a Finals contender.

    I think the point of the thread is to find the best, not one of the worst.
