    Oh boy, looking through this thread, I don't think HCP is going to be happy.

    I wasn't happy with his playoff performance, but I don't see any reason to fire him now that we've blown up the team. Terry has as good of a chance to succeed with this band of misfits as anyone else. Put together a playoff roster and then we can talk coaching if we think Terry isn't getting enough out of them. Who knows, maybe Terry can mold the team into a competitor.

    Thibs would be great right now since we got a lot of new faces he can make them play defense and offense to there highest. With terry I don't see that happening.

    Keep him and assign an inexpensive capable defensive coach to the staff. Our presence in the Memphis series certainly did not help the Stotts cause .

    It didn't help Stotts and that's why I started this thread. Terry isn't the future for Portland.

    If the dude was going to be fired, he would been fired already. Neil buys into him and he will be around for at least another year. (Unless Neil is let go)The only question now is he able to execute a full blown tank job in the manner KP did 10 years ago.

    I like this idea. If we want to tank, why not just have no coaching staff whatsoever? Just let the guys figure it out themselves.

    Lets fire Stotts and let a fan coach. Every game we get a new coach. If they win then they stay, lose then onto the next fan/coach.

    It's Jimmies and Joes, not Xs and Os. Stotts can only draw up the plays and put the players out there. Ultimately we just didn't have the talent to overcome Wesley's loss and Memphis was a particularly brutal draw for us (good exactly where we were weakest).

    I think we should coach by forum committee. I'll sit on the bench with an ipad. From the forum we'll select 3 coaches, you guys send me plays and I'll even let you facetime with the players. If we win, you guys stay on for the next game. If we lose, then we get 3 new coaches.

    He just lost four of his five starters, an assistant coach and you want to fire him as well?! Are you guys going to go over to his house and poor sugar in his gas tank, too? JEEZ!
