What if I told you... that we'd lose Dwight, miss out on Bazemore, hire MDA, DMo was gone, and

    No he didnt. He sat (along with Bazemore) in winning time TWICE while Millsap played like a grown adult male.

    Dwight with a blistering 6 pts and 7 rebs

    Yep if Dwight had accepted his role I can honestly say with his rebounding and interior D we would be challenging Golden state for top spot. Problem is we could not have afforded both Anderson and Gordon if re-signed Dwight.

    Dwight has been a cancer at every stop, he was addition by subtraction.

    The conclusion I came to is that the only way mda's system works is if his best player is also his playmaker/ a player who can score. Melo obv couldn't do that role. Harden does Nash's job better then he did? How would Phoenix look with Harden at the point instead?

    We have been playing our best with capella hurt. The new NBA is about jacking up as many 3s possible. We just had a lot of bad 3 point shooters last year. Dwight has been very good this year much better than capella.

    But Dwight doesn't have that attitude and likely never will. And it doesn't help that old timers like Barkley and Shaq complain all night about how he doesn't play in the post like they did. He thinks that's what he's supposed to do.
