A team that is optimized to win the NBA championship in the short term.
For a "win now" core though, it sure as hell better be an improvement. We'll see this season how the move plays out. A rookie with no track record...
I was more upset about the distracting smear job during a "win now" season where the Bulls were a whisper away from getting to the NBA Finals. At...
If its "win now" then focusing on the development of McDermott and worrying at all about his playing time does not really help. The Cavs clearly...
What lane do you think they have picked? If its "win later" then Dunleavy should not have been resigned, opening up development minutes for...
I guess the thing with McDermott is..... we can all think of different schemes and rotations and pairings to optimize his production. But does that...
There is a best philosophy though. One would be to maximize chances at "win now." If the conclusion is reached that Doug isn't really a "win now"...
Thanks for some basketball thoughts. Looks like we agree. The best move would be to pick a "win now" or "win later" road and act. You're right,...
If a meaningful, contributing asset could be acquired for a "win now" season for McDermott, it would be a wise move to acquire it. It doesn't even...
How he performed last season is certainly known. He put up a PER of 6. Ick. Terrible. Its going to be tough to get "more data" when he can't...
[IMG] Jimmy already has some nice gold. But a gold medal like Rose and Thibs have would be even sweeter.
Doug needs to take baby steps. In order to become relevant, he needs to show that he's clearly a better option than Mike Dunleavy and Tony Snell....
Thibs is one of the best NBA coaches around, but he's not Coach K.
Hopefully we'll see Jimmy in a similar picture soon. [IMG] And hopefully Derrick is good enough to still make the team...
Right, just like Coach K and Jim Boeheim. Or the past 2 years he has been selected to be coach.....
And Jimmy will likely be a bench player, if he makes the team. I'm sure it would still be special for Jimmy and of course an honor. The same for...
Yes, that is a good thing. I would be shocked if that happened though, given the revered status he has with the Bulls organization. The one move...
Thibs and Butler has been a winning combination in the past. Now it might be golden! Great honor for Jimmy. Is DRose part of the team for sure?...
Do you consider him to be an above average NBA coach? Elite? Based on what? Do you have any thoughts of your own? Analysis? I'd love to talk...
I'd try to stick to posting about basketball.
