Dave Joerger and John Hollinger are close to being fired by Memphis

[SchoolboyC]

Danny needs to work the phones for that Marc Gasol trade now

Give them David Lee, Olynyk and that 2018 Nets pick

On second thought, keep the Nets pick, give em the Wolves pick

Conley gonna leave this summer, this team is finished

Only way I see him stay is if they get a Coach with a more uptempo offense. If conley smart he gets out of there ASAP. He would be a great piece to a Championship team. Milwaukee or Indiana would be good fits imo

Stevie Wonder could see this coming... Joerger been trashing the team in the post game pressers

Lost the team, They have a half a dozen games where the team had given up by the 3rd quarter and got run off the court.

Old geezer roster and a coach that wants to get up and down the court don't mix well.

Gasol is out of shape again, Conley is regressing in a contract season, *eff Green and Lee have been trash, Tony Allen is a liability on one end of the floor


ps: fukk Hollins

And Conley to Indiana would be a KD2DC type homecoming

Spurs and Warriors looking at you like "um... yeah"

you can't mix the analytics and grind house my breh

 

[mastermind]

but whittmans job is somehow safe

Wittman and Grunfeld

How do you build a team based on analytics that does not have the ability to space the floor and make threes?

Classic example of a team not knowing when to wrap it up, re-signing Zbo never trying to find a true difference maker at SG?

This is the team that should have been jumping into the Jeremy Lamb deal, or trying to get Markieff. Some kind of youth at positions they need upgrades at.

What else could he have done? The tool drawer was empty, nothing was going to change the outcome of that series.

Of course they were not going to win. It doesnt absolve them from atleast trying. They should of had more off ball movement...to much dumping it to Zbo/Gasol & standing around when you dont have spot up shooters.

Gasol is in his prime, he can dominate if he wants to but like @Malta said he looks like he doesn't give a shyt most nights.

When he does, he puts up big numbers. He also put on a little more weight unlike last year when he was in the best shape of his life.

Im in the minority, last year to me was typical Contract year performance. I have very little faith in Marc as being a teams best player.

 

[Optimus Prime]

no way the analytics calculated that this was the best team to go into this season with

Off ball movement? Breh, there was nothing they could do tactically in that series, once Kerr put Bogut on Allen the series was done.

Because old school type of teams preach high percentage shots and usually that entails shots at the basket or wide open shots. Generally they don't believe the three is that type of shot unless you've proven to be a marksman there

Yeah but they also preach the importance of floor spacing and advanced statistics are supposed to emphasis the ability to make corner 3s to stretch defenses.

Your post work is negated if the defense doesn't have to respect your perimeter players.

 

[tremonthustler1]

Yes you can. Analytics don't discriminate or favor any one style

 

[NatiboyB]

Yes you can. Analytics don't discriminate or favor any one style

your right...But in this situation they didn't have the right pieces.

Oh of course they want to keep defenses honest (And they love the corners because they're the closest 3)

maybe cuz they old as fukk...

Zbo can't guard the PnR
Gasol is flabby and passive
Tony is being ignored by defenders
They way Conley is playing I'm ready to ship him out for a draft pick and let Rio run the point for the rest of the season. No way you max him out...
