Its time (for me atleast) to start rooting for every game to be a loss. I hate losing as much as anyone but we are not good enough to do any kind of noise in the playoffs. Whats the point? We will all hate it this season but come draft day if we had a better pick no one will be regretting it (atleast i wont). I was against the tank idea at first but the prospect of finishing in 9th place every year is terrifying to me.
Hey man i know it sucks, but would you rather finish 9th again? What is the point of finishing 9th three straight years? Haven't you had enough? How much is enough? How many years would we have to finish 9th for you to finally consider just all out tanking?
Plus this year already feels like a tank year for me anyways, we might as well tank. If we never truly have a shot at anything in the post season what is the difference between that and tanking? The only difference is the draft pick, and im tired of getting sh!!!y ones.
i think it's way too late to tank. either playoffs or bust this year. your definitely right. it doesn't really matter if we make the playoffs or not, but i'd rather try to make some noise in the playoffs and get some national coverage thna another average draft pick, because that's the only thing we'll get. i'm sure we're not going any lower than the 9th seed anyway. hopefully morey pulls off some crazy trade though.
Yeah i do agree we probably wont be bad enough to get a good pick. Morey just needs to either trade for a legit star or just trade away alot of our guys for picks/tanking.
Here is why we can't tank: Golden State 11-16 Cleveland 11-17 Phoenix 12-19 Sacramento 10-20 Detroit 10-22 New Jersey 9-23 Toronto 9-23 New Orleans 7-23 Washington 7-24 Charlotte 4-26 Midway through a 66-game season. That is TEN teams I named who have a much worse record than we do. If we tank, we would be lucky to get 11th. If we were in that range, I would be agreeing with you. But fact is, tanking now is just downright stupid. It is just play your best and hope for the best.
Rockets 113 Utah 102 Hopefully it's a good rebound from the Minny game and Scola can pick it back up. ¡¡¡VAMOS, ROCKETS!!! Why do people say this sort of stuff? We gotta win ALL of them.
Yeah its not like i have any actual pull on weather we tank or not going forward, im just airing my frustration with another mediocre year where we will probably either finish 9th again >_< or get the 8th seed for an early first round exit.
