    Don't know if he necessarily deserves a thread of his own, especially with how many people in here want him fired, but what the heck--let's celebrate whatever we can, right?

    How many of those awards should be in Dame's house...?

    What coach has ever won a lot of games without a, or a few really good players though? I mean believe me I have issues with Stotts but no coach has success without the right players.

    Can our COTM lead us to a single victory in the postseason? He has certainly failed miserably in his last 10 attempts. All these awards don’t mean shit if you can’t develop a successful (competent?) postseason strategy, which he has so far been unable to do.

    Was more of a tongue-in-cheek suggestion that his CotM awards are likely often coinciding with months when Dame went on a tear, and the Blazers had a better than expected record because Dame went off, rather than because he did anything CotM worthy.

    Not this one, I'd say, but ones in the past, probably.

    Maybe he can win coach of the year and get fired right after as the meme goes.

    It's actually a little weird because it doesn't seem like Dame has played particularly well the last month or two, maybe I'm just getting used to how good he is?

    That would be amazing wouldn’t it? The Blazers would be a perennial ECF team I think (not because of Stotts) because of the dearth of quality teams in the East.

    Fuck the haters. Even though they try, they don't own the forum.

    I say kudos to Stotts. Recognition is always nice.

    Good for you Coach! You're the best coach we've had in a very long time.
