    Whiteside has to go up there. Instead he waits and it’s a turnover. So many dumb mistakes.

    Helps when a coach can help maximize a player’s strengths rather than running the same system irrespective of the personnel.

    You know, missing 60% of your starting lineup *might* have something to do with that.

    Why do you think the players love him so much? No accountability whatsoever. Numbnuts lets his most influential (notice I didn’t say ‘best’) players do whatever they want on the court, which generally means playing iso-ball on offense and taking every play off on defense. Great strategy (especially if you’re tanking for a lottery pick).

    Bingo

    HOF coach doesn't make a 30 year old LMA better by being a hard ass, but jumping down a 35 year old Melo will make him a good defender apparently.

    This is a growns man league, not JUCO ball.

    He did? His three point attempts per game tripled after going to SAS.

    That’s on the refs for swallowing their whistles

    It's a whole organization line of thinking from management to coaching to the players.

    I think CJ is gonna get at least a game for trying to separate himself from the ref there.
