    I think we could've gotten Love without giving up CJ during season. Sucks we didn't do it.

    You can critize anyone, I'm not saying you can't. But seriously, why not try to coach? I think it's a tough job, but you may have the chops for it.

    If we're going to trade CJ and Zach and this is what we get in return? Would be one of the worst trades in NBA history

    No personnel change will change Stotts' system.

    That's a good goal also, but doesn't pay as well.

    People would still claim Stotts doesn't have enough to win with when he loses and wouldn't change a thing. Personnel changes aren't going to change the awful system instilled by the coach.

    Haha I wouldn't be interested in coaching. GM for sure though. I also enjoy making movies more.

    More than a 5th pick. What if we drafted another Hezonja with this pick? He was a top 10 pick IIRC

    Agreed. No coach will get this team past the WCF either.

    Maybe they just do what OKC did last summer, trade CJ and Dame, stock up on young players, and draft picks and see what the future brings.
