Was it worth losing our pick to watch the Warriors just rip our team?

    Wasn't worth it, but it happened. Let's not turn on each other because the series was terrible. Let's at least just wait for the news of JVG being hired and then yall can get back at each other's throats :)

    Of course not. And I said so before they ever clinched the 8th seed. The only saving grace from this asswhooping that cost us a draft pick is if it somehow causes an awakening in Les and forces him to change his entire approach to running this organization. I don't think we'll be that fortunate though.

    Hahaha.

    It still makes absolutely no sense they went that route.

    I hope some huge stud falls to #12.

    Just to further rub it into the idiotic management's face.

    I do not get you people, it is competition, and the more pain you feel from it, the more experience you get from those moments.

    I hope you're kidding. What experience did they get from this series? Half the damn roster won't even be here next year. And some of the players who will return(Capela, McDaniels) hardly got off the bench.

    That you really need some soul searching within the organization.

    You don't think missing the playoffs altogether would've led to some soul searching as well?

    I just hope the 12th or 13th doesn't get into the top 3. Of course the yes voters here wouldn't even change their minds (if they actually have one) then either.

    Not reaching the playoffs isn't enough for that? We all knew this team was trash, don't need GSW to show us that.

    This. Think the playoffs even worsened the chemistry and doubts.

    Well, I got a phone number at Game 4. So far, so good.

    More potential than a 14th pick. Wish me luck, brehs

    I don't understand this viewpoint from people at all.

    10 cents in your pocket is still better than 0 cents in your pocket.

    For this team to get exposed in a moment like this is necessary in My opinion to make the necessary changes the next season. Nothing reveals who players and coaches are more than the post season.

    I understand about being about being embarrassed, but if Harden is truly the great player he wants to be, he would use this as motivation, the humiliation, and rebound from it the next season.

    If this organization does not hire the right coach next season, he will probably bolt in two years, and rightfully so at the time.

    Humiliation is not such a bad thing some times.

    Well, sadly, we didn't win the other way, either. Actually, the Rockets are probably the only team that made the playoffs and it made the season even worse. lol.

    This.

    Any player picked 7 hours into the draft would need back surgery anyway

    No it wasnt necessary. Anyone who followed this team regularly this year could see the huge flaws in this team and that they had no chance. An overhaul was going to happen regardless when the season ended but now its without the asset of a draft pick. The only thing it did was give a reality check to the delusional ones that believed in some on/off switch for this team thats been embarrassing this whole year
