    OK, then why do we even have this website. None of us is a head coach in the league or has been, Stotts has to always be right.

    These are the kinds of posts that really test the "no personal insults" rule.

    Whatever, I love you all inspite of this.
    Keep Barton and T-Rob, re-sign them, Wilson Chandler isn't worth it, he isn't worth one of them. That's my opinion.

    There's a massive difference between discussing what we would like to see, might see, or think should happen, and actually claiming that we could do the jobs better than those who have them. If you can't see that, then I don't know what to tell you.

    I like Chandler because he is such a good fit for what this team needs (SF), has a very friendly contract, and is just entering his prime. The person I spoke to has a lot of connections so I don't doubt him but I would add, if Olshey thinks he can get Prince after a buyout and he has convinced Neil he will come here, I'll be Olshey passes on a trade and just picks up Tayshaun for the veteran minimum.

    Let it go, let it go
    Can't hold it back anymore
    Let it go, let it go
    Turn away and slam the door!

    I don't care
    What they're going to say
    Let the storm rage on,
    Reality never bothered me anyway!

    or,

    Those were the days my friend
    we'd thought they'd never end
    we'd sing and dance (and drink)
    forever and a day

    we'd choose the posts we want
    we'd fight and never care
    oh those were the days

    LOL. Whatever reality turns you on, I guess.

    Seriously, though, I love Barton's and TRob's highlight plays as much as anybody. If they had the basketball IQ to actually do something with their athletic ability, they could be awesome players. Unfortunately, they've consistently shown that isn't in their wheelhouse.

    How the fuck do you think trading two players hardly getting 2 minutes a game is blowing up the team?!

    Wtf is going on in here?!?! For a minute there, I am lead to believe Barton is the next Pippen and Robinson is the next Webber! Then I find out that we have a coach that can take this team and win more than 54 games without any pro experience! I knew Blazer fans were smart, but I was unaware that Phil Jackson was a Blazer fan that posts in here...

    Wow, Blazer4ever has really gotten under some of your skins! While I disagree with several of his comments, some of the retorts are equally invalid.

    Scotty Brooks sucks, no matter how far he's gone into the playoffs as a coach.
    Ditto for a certain Rockets HOF coach.
    Having your team go to the playoffs or playing well doesn't make you a great coach.

    Stotts isn't great because he's won in the playoffs or has had 30 years experience. Stotts took a team many die hard blazer fans on these very boards wouldn't be .500 and took them to the 2nd round. Stotts took a mediocre offensive team and made them elite. This year he's done similar things with the defense. Stotts outcoached the rockets in the playoffs - that's huge.

    I agree with blazer4ever that I would've liked to see Robinson get a lot of PT. However, none of us has seen the blazers practice everyday - Stotts has. It was totally unexpected to actually have Biebs play well. I was wrong, and I suspect blazer4ever was wrong. too.

    No they're not. They're not even close to "very good players." Very good players get playing time. Robin Lopez is a very good player. Wesley Matthews is a very good player. Victor Claver and Will Barton are not "very good" players. They're not even "good' players. They're just... players. Will has his moments, and he has, at times, shown flashes of potential, but he's a mile away from being "very good" by any measurement.
