Out of the playoffs bracket 55 games into the season, at the all star break. This is season is a failure, I personally believe we need to blow it up during the break. These players can't play together, they have all gotten entirely too comfortable and have given up. Break it up for picks and youg players, we get to enjoy keeping our lotto pick, go into the off season with a LOT cap room, a superstar in Harden and some good young players and hopefully and brand new coaching staff and system. This season was so damn disappointing.
Howard has to be booted out, whatever way possible. He is a negative to the team for his salary and contribution.
He contributed good tonight. Not he fault the coach doesn't know rotations or know how to coach period.
Howard Real plus minus +4.20 No 25 in the league. Harden #18 Defensive RPM #15 in the league, best in the team. Yes in a losing team with a negative point differential is really good numbers
Good. I'll take one lottery pick please. If any of you guys think that getting slaughtered by GS or SAS is the best option...well I don't know what to say. The goal for this franchise is championships not playoff appearances.
Of they get eliminated from the playoffs, I see Morey getting fired. They will get a new coach, new GM and Dwight Howard will be gone for sure. I just hope Corey Brewer and Terrence Jones leave too.
Morey is going nowhere period and wanting him gone is beyond stupid. New coach is a definite. Howard, Jones, Terry, Smith, and Brewer are gone. Maybe Dmo and Bev as well. Harden, Beasley, Capela, and likely KJ and Ariza are the only sure things on next year's roster. Two max slots will be opened up for Durant, Horford, Conley, Whiteside, and Barnes. You can see all this coming a mile away. Best we can hope for is to make the playoffs and make some noise. Hopefully OKC gets beaten quickly and decisively to make Durant consider moving on. Same with Lebron in Cleveland. GS winning again may make a Durant acquisition less likely so what the hell hope for that too.
Wanting Morey gone is no stupider than thinking Kevin Durant would ever sign here. This organization needs to clean house. That starts with the coach AND GM. Morey's philosophy has been exposed as ineffective and sophomoric this season. Tonight's loss was a perfect example. This team has no offensive system whatsoever. ISOs and 3-point shots are about it. Personally I want them to miss the postseason. We need that draft pick and this franchise needs a wakeup call badly. The worst thing they could do is make the playoffs and delude themselves into thinking they actually achieved something this year.
I think Morey is safe this summer but if we have another underachieving season next year his ass is gone.
There is no such things as 9th seed. If you are in 9th place, you go get a "seed." Seeds are for playoffs.
