    His shoot first ask questions later offense is starting to kill me. Who are the top candidates to replace him with?

    Yeah. Fire Stotts. I'm trying to get it trending on Twitter.

    Sad part is....nobody seems to know who the fuck he is.

    Sigh.

    I'm not exactly a huge Stotts guy, but this roster is kind of a hot mess. Was he a shit offensive coach the past two years when they were making the extra pass and playing an efficient and a (usually) fun-to-watch brand of basketball (at least on offense)? Face it, this team sucks because they barely have any guys who are any good at offense aside from the guards, so those are the guys taking the shots.

    Stotts has to work with what he's given.

    The roster Neil has built would put any coach in a tough spot.

    CJ/Dame/Plumlee are the only real players that we have.

    We take a LOT of bad and early shots. This is a symptom of bad coaching. The way we defend the pick and roll is abhorrent.

    Ed Davis is great. So is Harkless (who needs more consistent minutes).

    This explanation does not explain our abhorent Pick and roll defensive scheme.

    We've got two identical guys in Lillard and McCollum (all offense, no defense; but no one told Paul Pierce that), and two identical guys in Davis and Plumlee (lots of defense, not much offense). It's a very redundant, unbalanced roster. I don't imagine any coach would relish having this group of misfits shape his career.
