Thibodeau stealth tank returns with that fourth-quarter substitution. IQ's game is looking poised to be something, I can't believe he only played 23 mins and got pulled during that comeback. Preferably both Thibodeau and Randle would be gone this offseason. Let Johnnie Bryant rock. But at least one of 'em needs to be gone. Randle's antics are exhausting.

Lots of turnovers and bad defense, main culprits being Randle and Fournier

Went from down 4 to down 16 in the blink of an eye. Game over.
I saw that but I just saw that Randle decided to act tough after the game . He’s a real piece of work and needs to go . He had the nerve to visibly upset with Deuce earlier in the game on the court for a mistake yet he stays acting like a jackass

Is Thibs coming back next season?
If so…. :francis:

I think he is...he signed a 5-yr deal for a lot of money, so I think it's financials that will shield him more than anything. Plus we got the Berman report last week that Thibs will get one more year. Drew Gooden did come out after that to say "I spoke with World Wide Wes and he said 'don't believe the headlines'" though so maybe the beef is brewing for real. All the guys that Wes allegedly brought in to keep an eye on Thibs are gone beside Johnnie Bryant. So I could see the next fallout coming over replacements on the staff (though Rick Brunson seems likes an easy fix).

It seems easier to just release Thibodeau. But I think it might be more meaningful to get rid of Randle at all costs. When I think about all the rumors complaining about accountability, the way Randle's conducted himself, and then the situation on the court...Just dump Randle even if it costs us. Let the Randle move be a warning to Thibodeau and to the players that they're all on notice. It seems like the rest of the players are buying in anyway; but this would be that accountability.

Yeah, Thibs is definitely a problem. When they had their assistant coaches all in place to keep Thibodeau from going extra, the team was gelling. Woodson left and the offense faded, now Payne is gone too. I didn't mind Thibs with a loaded staff, but that staff is gone.

The question I need answered is Thibs not holding Randle accountable because he personally doesn’t want too or is it coming from higher up . Either way he needs to go and Rose need to do something
