Pels need to sign Zo, and maybe higher another coach to try to build a winning culture. Pels have lost too many close games to have confidence in Van Gundy. Only chance of keeping Zion long term.

Dame hasn’t scored 30 in like 10 games and still averages 28 PPG. It’s clear he’s not fully healthy but is what it is. Blazers peaked and basically are a remix of those Grizzlies in the early 2010’s. Shoulda been traded CJ :manny:
That’s disrespectful to those Grizzlies squads

Ehhhh that’s not a core you lock in long. They shouldn’t make the same mistake that Sacramento did.

A new coach isn’t going to solve the fundamental flaws on that roster.

The abysmal performance vs New Orleans the other night is what was costly to y'alls chances for the 2 or 1 seed. Esp with UTA gifting b2b Ls, and yall already having won the tiebreaker vs PHO.

Can't even rule out Denver, since they're tied with yall in the L column now.

It really may be a photo finish with these top 4 West seeds
Need Kawhi to fukking suit up and play. Dude has been out for damn near two weeks now:unimpressed:

When I saw the strength of schedule I thought they had it in the bag. This was definitely a full strength week considering NO gives them problems. The Raps & Knicks will not be a cakewalk either
I'm going to be pissed if Kawhi doesn't play against Denver on Saturday

What ever led you to believe that Kerr wasn't coaching in the first place? The seed planted by Rodman who doesn't know what the fukk he's talking about? What current coaches in the NBA are actually coaching, according to you? And what measurements are you using to determine whether they're coaching or not?

The perception of coaches and coaching on this board is one of the great mysteries.
Quit all the caping. These coaches ain’t coaching shyt. They all got the same gameplay, facepace, uptempo, layups and 3’s, minimal defense. There’s hardly any creativity, zero innovation, and they are hesitant on adjustments when they are clearly needed. That’s what made the Heat/Spurs Finals so special, Pop and Spo were coaching their asses off. Spo could have easily just let Lebron do what he does, like Kerr does, and it would of resulted in another 2011 performance for him.

Mike Malone, Thibs, Q Snyder, Billy D, Monty, Frank V, Spo, Pop, Mike Bud is decent, Nick Nurse are all examples of coaches and their staff that be actually coaching shyt.
