Dude Spends 85 percent of the game harassing the refs; instead of trying to figure out what the teams need to do. Ever notice every third quarter teams come out the locker room and whoop our arse, because we are incapable of making adjustments.

To be honest we can't even go into a game with a competent gameplan. The Boogie, AD pick and roll we ran "once" worked, never did it again. Then we had a set where AD and Boogie both screened for Jrue one rolled to the three point line the other rolled to the post, it worked ran it twice in a row, never again.

Every other time down it was someone jacking up a three or taking a dumb shot. Which I'm cool with us jacking up threes but at least let our two bigs ( AD, Boogie ) get down the court and crash the offensive boards.

Which brings me to my next point , Offensive Boards Boogie Is down there working to try to get everyone but no one else is. Why the hell isn't AD down there working to get some offensive boards too, we should be dominating in second chance points. frick throw Ajinca in there let his tall arse tip a ball out while you got two people trying to box out boogie....Oh yeah Gentry's rotations still suck and make no sense.

Why not play big dominate teams in the paint and second chance points... Let teams have threes we don't defend them anyway so who cares, make teams adjust to us because of what we are doing offensively.

Demps should have struck another deal at the deadline, looked he may have saved his job with the cousins trade but we have no depth at guard, and high percentage three point shooters and we have 6 centers... Not sure why Terrance Jones couldn't continue to get minutes with this roster... let AD play some three he sits out on the perimeter most the time anyway.

gentry needs to go look at some find if Duncan and Robinson and try to modernize it. I think he should just work on getting this team to gel with a concept for moving forward and not keep trying the same thing. you have 23 games to incorporate some new styles and plays with AD and Cousins Also maybe play some DMO AJeca Asik and see if they can fit into the future

a solution to the problems of a team with two dominant big men and limited perimeter threats is to play more, sub replacement level big men?

maybe you shouldnt be coaching basketball on any level

I wish someone would ask Gentry why in the hell he doesn't play D-Mo more, every time he's in the game good things happen

I did not say they were a solution I said let them run at the 5 some. see how they do next to Cousins.

but I guess it is a dumb idea to evaluate players on the team and see how they fit into the future plans.

Was expecting bad post cause of title. Found myself agreeing with most of your points.

yes it is. Ajinca/Asik dont fit into future plans for any team, much less one featuring two top 10 frontcourt players. they are slow, paint bound 5th bigs in a league that increasingly doesn't even need 3 bigs in a rotation

this is simply insane. in 2017, you want to slide Cousins (a 270lb 7 footer) down to the 4 to get a slower, less skilled player of equal size to play the 5? and that will help the offense?

did you pay attention to who the Rockets/Mavs had on the floor and what they were doing on offense?

I must admit I am not sure what I was thinking. in overall theory the notion of evaluating all the talent on the team is correct

but you are right why waste time on those 2

DMO should get more time

sorry I am being serious. brain cramp
