    Stotts totally failed with Mario, I'm with you! Stotts was no better than D'Antoni or Mike Malone in the playoffs vs the Lakers (no worse either). In fact, only 1 coach beat the Lakers twice in the playoffs. I would gladly take him over Stotts!

    Now go back to talking about losing teams who play winning basketball and winning teams that play losing basketball. That's consistent!

    Because at this point he is not as good as Dame, Trent, Hood or Ant.

    Gotta be super discouraging for Elleby to have a baller game and then get no run at MSG

    Surprised this even has to be explained, but clearly it does.

    It's frustrating. If we were an up and coming team with a bright future I would be happy with this record but this team is supposed to win now and right now we're not favorites even against the Knicks.

    It's nice cherry picking if you have your head all the way up Stotts' rear-end, but for the rest of us we compare Stotts' poor post-season record to the coaches you just listed.

    And guess what? He's nowhere close to any of them.

    Time to build a roster with healthy players, including a two way all-star over 6'-6" to put next to Dame. Anything else will be a failure to support him.

    I'm watching Ariana Grande sing "34+35" on a loop. I find it much more uplifting than "Kumbaya."

    Highly recommended.

    Sorry, not fair to compare Stotts to Malone using playoff success against the Lakers. We should just look and their head to head record in the playoffs against each other.

    I'm happy to keep talking basketball. I would prefer you stop talking politics, anatomy, or other personal insults to get off topic.

    I'd prefer you to not be dishonest or disingenuous but we see how that's going. If you can't handle being called out on your bullshit, then you probably should stop interacting with me. Hence, why I told you I was done with you.

    But, you begged for more and are crying foul.

    You responding to me, "I don't care" actually screams "I care deeply."

    Dame could be better if he didn’t need to have the ball so much. Even the coach said it last time. They move the ball better without Dame

    I'm not the one making up quotes and denying the real quotes.

    You have told me you're done with me many times, but I'm glad you keep coming back, I have nothing against you personally.
