    Do player only meetings upgrade your talent? Lots of guys around here about to be reminded what it looked like 10 years ago when we had a lot of really good players, we were scrappy, and "fun to watch, "played the right way" and...couldn't make the playoffs.

    players only meetings only apply to teams that are supposed to be good and actually have high hopes of achieving something. that doesn't apply atm

    3 game skid is nothing compared to what's in store down the line for years to come. get used to it

    Wasn't this the year Dwight grabbed his Isaiah Canaan's penis from the bench?

    What you mean? Everything is going according to plan.

    Full speed ahead on the train to Cade Cunningham!

    the ideal players-only meeting would entail a roundtable plan-of-action on how best to approach various prospective billionaire suitors for purchase of the franchise from hyenaface

    I realize we have played 13 games, but our player development is more like we have played 3 given Harden's antics and guys missing games.

    So no, I wouldn't have a players meeting nor am I putting much into anything I have seen so far. It hasn't been a good start to the season, but until the same guys, more or less, play together for 15 or 20 games, I don't think taking action is warranted.

    If only Harden had interest in La Bare instead of St James things might have worked out differently between him and Dwight.
