    Fire whomever had Nolan Smith slated as a first round pick.

    The talent scouts have proved to be one of the worst in the NBA. They have to go. Paul really needs to look at this.

    1) Fire Bert Kolde and have him change his name to Vojislav Darksuitovich

    2) Have VD buy the Kings.

    3) Trade our crap for their young stars.

    4) Have VD sell the team before anyone was the wiser.

    5) Fake VDs death, rehire Bert Kolde.


    Having Bert Kolde, $1,000,000
    Having Bert Kolde buy other teams, priceless.

    D'Antoni has won nothing in 10 years of coaching several all-stars and an MVP

    Beal and Gordon are the same player

    I agree about Mixum

    Again, Mixum has been posting this entire season. You all just can't tell which moniker he's been using because his usually overly negative posts have blended right in during this crappy season.

    I am...... just there aren't many quality ones out there. Rather have 2 good undersized SGs then then what we have now.

    Or: D'Antoni's coaching made inferior players look like MVPs and all-stars.

    big name coaches won't go here if there's no stars on the team. Oklahoma city is going to be good for the next 10 years, so we have to build our team to beat them or the Miami Heat.

    Plan:

    1. Target biggest FA possible without giving up Aldridge. Everyone is trade bait, as are draft picks. Deron Williams is really the only guy worth max money. So go for it. Not a likely plan to happen but you have to make a serious push. Let's face it, Dallas and NJ are the contenders but with Aldridge, cap space, and some ok talent with Matthews and a resigned batum (maybe), its going to be a better situation for winning. Dirk is old. There isn't much in NJ. Get that done, get a marquee coach, and we're good.

    2. Target superstars that either are unhappy or the franchis is unhappy with and possibly looking to unload. The Carmello Anthony project. Then try to convince Steve Nash to come along. See if you can get Ray Allen or Paul Pierce since boston is going to blow their shit up.

    3. Attempt to package draft picks to move up to get player the blazers desire. Combine with players if you need to. Just move up into top 3 if possible. If that doesn't work, I'd go after 2nd option type role players (Tyreke Evans, Kevin Martin, Andre Iggy, Monta Ellis type) rather than play with the draft.

    4. Resign Batum if we don't have a better SF acquired.

    5. GM? I don't know. Trader Bob.

    6. Coach? JVG.

    Boris Diaw. Also, Steve Nash was a deserving MVP at least once under D'Antoni, but only an All-Star on Dallas, and not even that under Terry Porter.

    You put LaMarcus and Nic on last year's Warriors team and they go crazy for never seeing the ball.
