Man, I wouldnt be so pessimistic about the situation. If our direction is taking us the direction of the Heat, as you put it, I don't see how that is in anyway bad. What about a direction of: 2 rings, 4 consecutive finals appearances does not appeal to you as a fan? Would you rather still be picking 14th every year? Getting that draft pick that's just good enough to not be good enough, year after year? Call me crazy, but I'll take the direction we're headed now, if the alternative is flat lined at middle of the road.
How are we recruiting with less class than Miami? When you say it isn't about Lin's number, then rant without mentioning another example, I don't buy it. You are pissed they used Lin's number and your ego thinks you should make a thread about it. Lebron, Wade and Bosh broke the rules making a deal together, then put on a show by meeting with other teams when they already had there plan set. Then Lebron had a tv special to make his announcment, then they had a parade talking about how easy it was going to be to win. Yeah, Houston lacks class. Get real son.
Yeah, I agree. Colleges should stop recruiting too. How lame to recruit? I mean if you're that good everyone loves you and you don't have to try.
You weren't embarrassed when Lin committed those stupid TOs or when Parsons lost Lillard for that 3pt dagger???? 0.9 secs, man I would endure anything this FA season just to avoid going through such blunders in the future.
we got hakeem thru the draft. our 1994 team was hakeem surrounded by very good role players 1 Brooks | 3 Petruška | 7 Herrera | 10 Cassell | 11 Maxwell | 17 Elie | 20 Robinson | 21 Jent | 25 Horry | 30 Smith | 33 Thorpe | 34 Olajuwon | (Finals MVP) 35 Cureton | 42 Riley | 50 Bullard | second championship we had the same team except for clyde then we tried to get barkley pippeen etc and things went to ****... there are no shortcuts to a championship
You should be more embarrassed to be an idiot. NBA team doesn't go after the best players, loses, fans complain. NBA team goes after the best players, is shallow and trying to buy success, fans complain. Some people just can't be satisfied. In the era of "Big 3's", one good player isn't enough. BTW, SA has one of the most famous and successful big 3's of all time.
I'm not gonna blast the OP because it's hard not to look at the Spurs as everyone's role model. I'm just not sure Morey can do any better of a job than what he's doing now. The GM is hired to acquire the best talent possible, and he earns an A for effort and results thus far from me. We all agree the coaching and system is flawed though. Things will turn around! Keep the faith.
