    Whenever, I'm hoping the new coach will be a former big man like McHale or Laimbeer. That's where our best players are.

    Why not Dean Demopolous? I'd give 'ol JVG a shot too.

    Let's piss off the Lakers and hire Kareem Abdul Jabar.

    I still say Mike Budenholzer. He's the next Tom Thibedou. Longtime assistant that will be a good head coach.

    Three of the guys we acquired during the offseason have been a big dissapointment. Felton is horrible. Crawford is a ball hog who kills the offense most of the time. Thomas is worthless, he doesnt rebound and his defense is pathetic.

    The only positive out this "mess" is that hopefully the necessary changes will made. However my big concern is that with a puppet GM in Chad and Vulcan running the show we will just we a rudderless ship, afraid and unable to make the bold moves necessary, if that case it's going to very ugly IMO, uglier than it needs to be.

    Agreed.

    I think our two biggest barriers to bettering the team is Vulcan and the lack of good talent evaluators.

    Bullshit

    Felton is horrible, I agree....

    Crawford is what he has been HIS ENTIRE CAREER...an instant offense ball chucker...that is what he does, he can shoot you in\out of games....This is why he has always been a player coming off the bench....too inconsistent and this team desperately needs him to be consistent....not gonna happen

    Niether of those two guys will be back next year IMO.....at least they shouldn't be...

    and Thomas, seriously? Your going to diss on him? He is a bench player, who come in, knows his role, is pretty much money from the free throw line and plays decent defense....ANY of the problems that POR has right now, and there are a lot of them, have absolutely nothing to do with his performance to date....He actually was a GOOD pickup, for what role he was INTENDED to play...
