    The ship is sinking and no one can stop it! We have a bad contract in DFS and players who don't play defense in Reed and Sengun.....We can’t win a championship like that.

    That's 3 of your proposed top 7 players, who are virtually ineffective.

    The only way we can bring life back to the team and raise this ship, is through a trade. This team does not fit, there's no cohesion. They need to make.a trade.

    Houston gets;
    Giannas and KPJ

    Milwaukee gets;
    Sengun, DFS, Reed and two #1's

    Ime will have a defensive team that he wants;

    KD
    Jabari
    Giannas
    Amen
    KPJ

    Bench
    Tari
    Adams
    Capela
    JD

    Nobody is saying defense isn't bad, but watching all of this that's your main concern?

    At some point you have to put your Ime dildo down and realize Fraudoka is a slow stubborn fool that probably isn't even better than Milkhair.

    When you switch around enough variables you have to look at the common denominator.

    Problem is Ime is the captain of the Titanic, give him a new ship and he will run into another iceberg

    Hard decisions must be made soon. Young pieces must be dealt to bring in help now.

    In another world, Nikola Hyperextension Jokeric is 1-2 weeks away.

    Like it or not, Giannis is the most likely outcome. He suits Ime's need for defense and preference for iso-ball. He's also a legitimate star for whom Stone would surrender the picks.

    Fire Ime, he is the biggest reason we are losing, there are players that should NEVER play except for matchups.

    Okogie, Adams etc.....

    If I were Reed I would demand to be traded, they are wasting the kids talents.

    Guys in Reed’s situation can’t demand anything. I think he’s worth hanging onto, but if they get offered a 26 lottery pick for him, I’d trade him tomorrow. Ime ain’t going anywhere and Reed will not excel in an Ime offense.

    Oh yes they can, anyone can take charge of their own career if a coach is ****ing it up.

    Lots of players get coaches FIRED - Ime is in the way of this team's success, he has NO CLUE what to do, because he is frankly a bullshit coach.

    Work harder is not a system, it is an excuse for his inability to understand how to beat a simple double team with Durant.

    Here is an idea - whomever's man doubles KD move to an open space, make yourself and available target and either shoot or pass to the man whose defender is rotating to cover you.

    You see how Cam Whitmore’s career is going rn right?

    Also I’m neutral on Ime, but he got extended. He’s not going anywhere regardless of how we feel
