re: Playoffs or this is it for Willie

No he isn't. He's put together a championship caliber squad. Three of our players were either playing for team USA/select USA team this summer. If anybody is on the hot seat for not making the playoffs it's Zion. Because if we don't make it, chances are he got hurt and that's a no-no considering the fact he showed last season he would rather be fraternizing and tricking off on strippers and low-quality women than playing basketball. That's not Griff's fault. And if Ingram knew this before we did, I wouldn't be surprised if he didn't want to come back early from that toe injury. What's the point? Griff has done nothing but improve upon his mistakes, lay down a solid foundation and culture, and make this an actual basketball organization worth respecting by continuously improving the staff and drafting through trial and error. It's our "Franchise Player" that needs to finally buy in.
