In his long career, he's been through plenty this locker-room, and potentially divisive stuff before. I think he needs to pull the guys together and help them re-focus. (Perhaps, he already has). Figuratively speaking, this is a team full of talented, yet somewhat cocky Sophomores. He's the level-headed and respected Senior who's been around the block a time or two. Time to grab these boyz by the ears and let 'em know what's up. They need to hear it.
Has he really ever "righted the ship" on any other team? I can't think of one. Really, Andre Miller has been managing players with attitudes his whole career. Not in the locker, but on the court in the heat of competition. Only difference was most of them weren't as talented as our guys are. And the coach here has no faith in him, whereas he's been handed the keys in every other team he's been on.
Besides the max contract, management has placed far too much emphasis on this being Roy's team. That is, too a fault.
Can he coach, too? If not, I'm afraid any locker room talk will be wasted as long as Nate keeps ignoring the obvious and starting Blake over Miller and under utilizing Oden. BNM
Howard won't be able to do anything to resolve any of the current issues that are plaguing the team. This is probably way more about effort and chemistry on the court than it is about agendas in the locker room.
Yeah, but with stops in Dallas, Houston, Denver, and Orlando, he needs to impart some of that wisdom as to how to rise (with us) above all of that.
Hey Nate got close with Andre, Blake, Roy, Aldridge, and Oden----what happened? we were winning....why didn't he send Blake to the pine??? NATE WILL BE GONE IF HE DOESN'T BRING ANDRE BACK IN THE STARTING LINEUP....LET ANDRE GET US A LEAD...A GOOD START...EASY FAST BREAK LAYUPS WHEN THE STARTERS ARE FRESH..INCLUDING ROY...AND THEN HE CAN SIT HIM TO REST HIM.....................OTHERWISE BYE BYE NATE
