    As much as I think CJ isn't a great fit on this team, it wouldn't matter if you replaced him with Jimmy Butler under this coaching regime.

    FIRE THE FUCKING COACH NOW.

    But the apologists want you to believe it's just preseason so it's not a big deal or that we simply don't have enough talent. Both are garbage excuses used to deflect responsibility from Terry Stotts.

    Fire him now and save the season. It's really that simple.

    We don’t have Mario and Tolliver anymore. Anyone that thinks we can’t get a more efficient shot than a Melo iso is kidding themselves.

    I think he's differentiating "better" and "more talented."

    Do we not know what a bad shot is? Our defense is bad enough as it is and our bad offense is making our defense even worse. GT and RoCo only ones taking good shots. CJ forcing it into multiple defenders. Nurk takes two threes and a long two early in the shot clock. Hood and Melo forcing up low percentage jumpers. How can you play in the NBA this long and still not know what a low percentage shot is???

    I'd be OK if we were just missing shots but this is like we picked random dudes out of the stands 5 minutes before the game and handed them a jersey.

    My prediction of 38 wins is looking absurdly optimistic.

    I'm tempted to re-think my (unannounced) prediction of this team making the playoffs.
