Why re-sign Nurkic if you keep Stotts???

Oh no!

 

You're completely wrong about this and so is everyone who liked this.

Sure TT was the first option. But if you don't think that play was designed to have Dame come off those 2 screens and catch and shoot as the secondary option then again, you'd be wrong.

 

I agree with much of what you say except Pop, Kerr & Stevens all inherited teams with some great players.

 

I get your point, but Stotts was the offensive coordinator and we are discussing the offensive side of the court right now. Stotts gets full credit for the Dallas Offense that won a title. I'm not saying I love the one he is running now, but to say he isn't a championship coach is inaccurate to me also.

 

I'm sure the 750th option was for Dame to catch the ball falling out of bounds and throw up a no look hook shot.

 

There isn't a team like the Warriors in the league, and there probably never will be. They are such a complete fluke that we will probably never again see 5 superstar players on the same team in their prime. Anyone could coach that team to a championship.

But could Stotts have taken the original Warriors championship team and molded them into a winner? No. I don't think he could. I don't think he would have used Draymond effectively, or Bogut, or Iggy, etc. I think Steph and Klay would have done what they do, but that team never would have won a championship under Stotts.

 

Well, we're stuck with him until the team gets bought. My guess is two more seasons. Team will sell next summer. New ownership will wait a year before clearing house.
Hopefully 2020 is a year of many positive changes.
