Of course he's coming back.
56 and 49 regular season wins do not earn you a firing in the NBA

fired in the middle of the season. might happen like that here but doubtful
CP3 doesn't seem like the Jason Kidd type Dbag

I'd fire Scott's bitch arse. Anybody can stand on a basketball court looking like a fricking moron.

I'm not saying that CP3 is like Jason Kidd, but I don't think his relationship with Scott is as good as most believe it is. It definitely seemed to me like the team quit on Scott much like the Nets did. Maybe it's not a coincidence.

They need to blow the whole thing up by any means necessary, make all players available except Paul to anyone and everyone

Scott isnt going anywhere. You want to pay his 6 million next year?

what the hell type of good is thorton going to do for the hornets. byron will just come up with some dumbass reason why he isnt good enough to play, and he will sit him on the end of the bench never to see the light of day.
thank god CP3 was NBA ready when he came out, or we would be fricked like i cant describe

I didn't say anything about Scott going anywhere, but I'd make it known to every NBA GM that only Paul is untouchable. They may have the ultimate collection of soft big men in NBA history, Armstrong is an embarassment, I'd start with him and Chandler

Obviously they need to wait until the Finals are over, find the next James Posey, and do whatever it takes to attain him. Whatever it takes.

IO think CP3's issue was more of not really having time off since last season. People forget the Olympics and he had to play way too many minutes earlier in the season
Not excuses but does factor into the flatness at the end maybe

our lack of bench absolutely killed us in this postseason. we all knew it was a big problem. CP3 and Dwest played their hearts out just to get us into the playoffs, logging way too many minutes, but we just could not afford to not play them or else we'd lose.
We have to develop a bench. Losing jannero pargo hurt A LOT. he was at least worthy enough to spell CP3 for 10-12 minutes and not let the game slip away.
Armstrong just hasn't developed into a reliable backup who can take minutes away from Chandler and West
JuJu wright should be playing more than Peja, or at least spell Peja, but he cannot get on the floor enough
Marks has done decently enough and has hustle, he should be able to provide some bench play.
antonio daniels? Rasual butler? james Posey? Mo pete? Why can't these players reliably give minutes off the bench and not let the score get out of hand before we have to return our starters?
All of our starters being hurt during this playoff series was not a coincidence. Byron played the starters WAY too much during the regular season, causing fatigue for our best players.
Why is our bench so bad and not deep? Players aren't developing or buying into our system? Byron not giving them a chance? Do they just suck? all issues that fall squarely on BYRON's shoulders.
We have got to fortify our bench. However with some of our retarded contracts, it will be hard to get decent bench players, as our current overpaid ones are probally untradeable!
Thus, Byron needs to learn to use the bench EFFECTIVELY and actually COACH these players into their role on our NBA team. A 7 man rotation for 86 games will simply not cut it.
After the first round, there are THREE more series. He cannot expect our starting 5 to log 38+ minutes everygame and make it anywhere in the post season, yet our bench is god awful. Our players simply have to get better!

Some players that I think we should go after, and could have a legit shot at getting if we made everyone available besides CP3:
Shaq
Kyle Korver
Shawn Marion
Anthony Randolph
Travis Outlaw
Ben Gordon
Now obviously we won't be able to get all these people. I'm just spitting out random guys that I wouldn't mind having. Who else do yall think we realistically have a chance at?

I would inquire on Manu Ginobli. I know it seems retarded but give up DWest for Manu. Maybe throw in Peja. Hell throw in the rest of the team except CP3. Build from the ground up.
Send the GM a little pink slip that says GTFO!!!!!!!!!
