    From ownership all the way down to the players, which city has the dubious honor of having the most dysfunctional NBA team RIGHT NOW.

    Ownership: gross incompetence or just being an uninvolved one.
    Front Office: bad picks, signings, trades
    Coaching: can't coach out of a paper bag
    Players: one too many players only meetings or players fighting/arguing with one another

    Minny just made a pretty big jump on the Knicks . . . but they're all pretty bad

    Hard to say for me cause Wolves, Suns, Wizards and Bulls are all equally trash for me, so trash that the Kings are looking great and the Knicks are almost looking good.

    On the surface this looks like an easy task but then you start thinking about these teams and how f'ed up all of them are

    Minny is on the verge of total meltdown. Wiggins trashing home-court fans, KAT froze Butler. Then Butler forced to leave by owner, the least by not the least Tibby banked on Butler and lost. This was once a team that people say to watch out for. They can go from barely making the playoffs to starting from scratch.

    no love for the magic? they may not be typically dysfunctional as of lately, but historically they are one of the worst fun franchises.

    if it wasn't for Harden historic run we would be topping the list in this abysmal category.
    I pick Jimmy Buttler's (former/current/future) teams

    How did the 76ers get on this list? They seem to be doing rather well right now.

    Plenty of terrible organizations.

    The smaller markets are in a tough spot given great players refusal to go there, but for right now I'm giving it to Minnesota. They actually had personnel to compete.

    The Knicks are a close second. To be unable to put a great team together in that f**king market confirms just what a s**tshow it is.

    I voted for the Wizards

    the Knicks aren’t as bad as they used to be...Phil Jackson getting canned did a lot for them...now they just suck, but when it comes to being the most dysfunctional, the Wizards got that on lock

    an organization I’ve been really impressed with is the Nets...after bringing in Sean Marks, they’ve made some real strides over the years...they’re currently 7th in the East and only a half game back from 6th...they’ve got a lot of cap space this summer...we’ll see if any star takes their money, they make prudent signings, or if they fck it up by signing some bad contracts
