Lmao. You think you know more than anyone, but you don't know shit. Here's some "Gems" you've had. You claimed Cleanthony Early as a "great talent" less than a year ago. You claimed that Montero and Alexander needed to play meaningful minutes. Made multiple posts about how bad you wanted us to trade for Carter-Williams (saying we should trade Harkless for him). Made a thread in 2016 about how we need to bring back GREG FUCKING ODEN. Said we needed to be the 4th NBA team to give Jimmer Fredette a chance. Suggested that we play Lamarcus at SF. Made a thread in 2014 that Joe Jackson (who???) was gonna be a good NBA player. Made a thread early this year about how we need to sign Warren Gillis (who???). Claimed you don't even watch Blazer games. But yes, you know more than everyone! Hahaha. MCW / Fredette Early / Gills Aldridge / Jackson Alexander / Montero Oden / An irrelevant C That would be a killer lineup!!!
Don Nelson was out in 2009 (currys rookie year) and Jackson took over the year they drafted Klay. Their record improved each season until Kerr (championship caliber coach) took over and took that team to a championship.
And like I said, I'm not claiming Mark Jackson is a great coach, but he's not the scrub that some of you make him sound like.
Sure seems like it You know how I feel about him Really overrated player Actually worse than that Carter-Williams is garbage Utterly awful player Some thought he was actually good Eventually came to their senses
MCW is a player I like no matter what you say, he's free-flowing, pure talent. Cleantony Early isn't good? When he had that episode being robbed and shot at (iirc), the Knicks absolutely stopped winning. Gillis is great, you just never seen him play. Joe Jackson was great in the NBDL (I first saw him in College, played for Memphis) was actually signed by an Israeli team this year but couldn't make himself comfortable and was waived after about a month. Lemarcus Aldridge I mostly wanted gone but thought as a SF he could maybe be worth something. Montero was a disappointment but didn't get a real chance. Alexander I maybe wanted as a 3rd stringer, the player I really liked an wish we could bring back is TRob. I want us to bring Kelly Olynyk. You didn't mention him but I think he is absolutely a great player. Jimmer? I thought maybe he could become a decent role player. Oden if he was ever healthy I'd of course re-sign and he looked good for a while playing in China. Anyway, thinking outside the box I understand you see as a fault but that's why if you listened to me we could bring excellent players for cheap. I'm sorry for the angry words and disrespect, didn't mean to hurt anyone's feelings
unattainable but portland's own erik spoelstra would likely be an upgrade and I rank him just below pops, with kerr and stevens. I fear he is being groomed to take pat Riley's place though. edit-thibodou should have been included on runner ups list though I find it interesting that the wolves (another very young team like the blazers) outside of Rubio play poor defense especially the team concept and rotations, even with thib as head coach. experience is a very big factor I believe in team defense, moreso than athleticism and size. gives me hope for stotts as a defensive coach. edit redux-carlisle too
Could be a good choice, but you don't know how he would adapt to this league. Could be a bust as well. Blatt grew up in the US so it's not really same thing.
