    Offensive side of the ball. He wouldnt know what defense was if it reached out and slapped him... hence him never winning a chip

    Right...so GMs and HCs allegedly coddle the superstars, yet somehow this mythical “video staff” gets a free pass to piss everyone off.

    Maybe he checked stats for his own timeouts where he makes no adjustments. Then yes they surely dont change anything

    I should have said, Harden does not willingly move well without the ball. And yes there is a lot that Harden could do. He is a gifted superstar. But I am just stating what we see and how he plays without the ball, NOW. And I agree with the system had him that way because in OKC he also used to take mid-range shots.

    I swear you guys act like we had this incredible roster with MDA and that we should have never lost games or something man...crazy.

    "Pouting" was meant as a "catch-all" term to include any way he may act out if he comes to a point where he feels mgmt isn't trying in earnest to trade him.

    I didn't say it would happen on the court.

    I think Silas's job is safe, at least for the rest of this year.

    It’s the same offense as MDA for most part. Kick out to three point shooters is still the staple. This was the same in Dallas with Luka finding the three point snipers

    Uh?

    yea no one said that but we lost against team that we shouldn’t. You are crazy to try to defend those poor loses. When the team was just not engage or ready.

    and this happened a lot under MDA. If we had secure those wins we would have faced the warriors in the finals and last year we would have gotten a higher seed. Losing 1 game is okay but we lost a lot of those games that we should have won.

    And what do you call what we have now? With Mike we won more games than we lost, point blank period. Poor loses but alot of great GREAT wins against teams we should not have beaten.

    What we have now you mean barely 1 game with a full roster? How many practices with everyone in too ? And it’s the start of the season. Nothing similar with winning against a contender and then losing against a lottery team.

    2-4 is 2-4 bro, you can blame it on pracitice time or whatever but the fact is a "championship" team is relying rookie players, coaches, and assistants.

    Sorry GM as well.

    A real coach would define roles - seems he is sort of waiting for Harden to opt in......or get traded.
