How close is Hoard getting to the 45-day limit with the Blazers? I'm assuming we're close and with either have to convert his contract or send him back to the GLeague for the rest of the year soon.
Even if Hoard is maxed out, Stotts have to be the biggest fucking dumbass to play the most trash fatass can't do shit player on our roster 23 minutes when some (at least somewhat) promising players are warming the bench. Yes I'm pissed out of my mind right now
I don't blame Swanigan for this though so maybe we shouldn't be harsh towards him by calling him a trash fatass. It's not his fault Stotts played him at PF guarding a wing and made him be the guy double teaming Luka.
Well I don't blame him for playing but he just sucks. Yes this might have been too harsh but he still sucks and can't get into a proper shape in his 3rd year in the league
This is my problem with Stotts, and a lot of coaches in general. Familiarity/experience is almost always rewarded, often at the expense of the team. Then when they’re forced to play the others they’ll tell you about their development behind the scenes, like it was all part of the plan. Bullshit, it’s all bullshit.
I mean even if he pulls the BS familiarity card Swanigan hasn't been with the team for about 1 years when Little has been with us since he was draft... Well I guess considering that Stotts system (or lack thereof) never ever changes, I can see that the year and a half Swanigan spent with the team before that account for more....
Are offense and defense is so complicated that Ariza picked it up in one practice, lol. Yet some people are still excusing others for not knowing it after half a season.
