    Blow it up, fire someone, bash players, these are off season topics. Now is not the time to be disruptive and negative. The team needs our support. Be happy.

    Too many people like to cause destruction. If they are not creating their own misery and self destruction, they like causing someone else misery. Kind of like the idiots that like to stop traffic and screw up everyone’s day after a hard day at work.

    Watching the pretty ladies dancing make me happy. The cheerleaders are still dancing; the season is not over until they stop.

    That book has the greatest 2nd chapter of any book of all time.

    All it's missing is a sewer gang bang.

    But he did fuck those 11 and 12 year olds he met at the store.... close enough I suppose.

    Or maybe they were both 11...

    I read that book over 10 years ago.... going off memory here...

    I think Terry is a push as a coach, but so are about 80% of the coaches in the NBA (with perhaps 10% that actively hurt their team, and another 10% that make the whole greater than the sum of its parts). So I'm OK with firing him, because I don't think he's irreplaceable, but even if they do that and bring in just another OK coach, there are still plenty of roster problems that have to be addressed before you're ever going to see substantive improvement.

    So meh, whatever. Stay or go, it's all the same to me.

    Mrs PokerDog just asked me if Pi day is always the same day of the year.

    1. No more pot for her.
    2. She would fit right in here.

    I don't he getting fire this year but if it don't get any better by next January I think he will be gone. They will wait for training how they really going to use Nurk and anybody else come in next year.

    Look at player development under Stotts.

    1 Rookie of the Year
    1 Most Improved

    Remember Batum under Nate? Batum under Stotts is much better. Same as Wes.

    Stotts adjusts the offense to a player's strengths instead of forcing a player to play a system like Nate did.

    Players under Stotts look better. Lillard, Wes, Batun, LMA, Lopez, 4 out of those 5 went on to max contract deals. And Rolo's was a healthy deal.

    Stotts isn't the best coach but he's not as bad as many of you portray him to be.

    It's the defense. We are embarrassing on defense. Scheme, accountability, effort. That's Stotts, or mostly on Stotts

    Terry can move on. There is always a career in real estate.

    Season was over when it was obvious we weren't going to contend for anything. So it was over in November.

    It's just how they want to officially end it. Losing in the playoffs, or playing the lotto

    I still believe. We can't win every game but we did win 5 of 6 ( really 6 of 6 ) before that loss.

    When you see the glass as half empty, then the world will seem very negative.

    When you see the glass as half full, then the world will seem very positive.


    My thought for the day....
