You are correct that isnt' a good enough reason to fire any coach. However, Oklahoma City did not fire one of the top 5-10 coaches in the league, who...
The people that know basketball aren't general managers and Olympic team committee members, they are fans on message boards. Duh!
I keep reading a lot of complaints, but they rarely have a viable solution attached to them. Nate sucks? Then who are we going to get to replace...
Kevin Garnett's post-game tirade just cost OKC the game.
I figured you wouldn't want it all in one place, and I understand why. Fair enough.
You don't have to tell me anything. I'm just trying to put the puzzle pieces together since the whole story isn't being presented at once. Could you...
Either you totally ignored my question or you are admitting that individual improvement is not how you judge the value of a head coach.
If Nate is a bad coach this year because nobody improved, what were your thoughts of him last year when a large chunk of the roster had career years?

Yeah... He's the reason we have such a good record against sub .500 teams. If the Nuggets had a player like that, they would be ahead of the Lakers.

Blazers/Kings - 2005
I'm totally exaggerating, and I know you didn't say anything close to that. In fact, Batum's play has certainly been inconsistent this year, but he...
Two nights ago Batum was garbage, now he is going to be better than Scottie Pippen!
Pretty typical reaction around here. A lot of people have short-term/selective memories, and those people are freaking out right now.
Saying Nate isn't good enough is just an excuse too. In our wins and losses, it's a team effort. If the coach didn't matter, they wouldn't have...
I'm sure he'll have a few games where he disappears, because he's a 21-year old kid who lacks experience. If Nate plays him 5-7 minutes a game like...
Not only am I not joking, I'm sure of it. I log games for a scouting service and break down the plays team run. Portland runs more "advanced" plays...
I think you bring up some very good points. I'm sure you know this, but assistant coaches often make the game plans, and in Portland's case, they...
