The frick? Ryno was horrible outside of one game.

I'll give you that, but he was awesome in that one game, and he was coming off of an injury that had sidelined him for 20 games right before the playoffs started. But we weren't injured that much last year.

quote:

Jrue was definitely not 100% in the playoffs and was pretty mediocre.


He wasn't, and if he played in Game 2, we probably win. He was also pivotal in the last game against SAS.

quote:

EG last year was a fluke. Outside of last season he has shot about 38% from 3 every year.


Or maybe he didn't take good shots this year like he did last year.
He shot more threes per game this year than last year, and his % dropped. He became less efficient.

quote:

The only difference between last season Reke and this year's Reke is 1 point. Assists, rebounds, turnovers, and steals are all the same.



EG scored more this year than last year. You telling me he looked better this year? stats don't tell the whole story.

quote:

Cole has been below average his whole career, and in no way was he ''great'' last season.



for a backup PG, and replacing Rivers, yeah it was great compared to what we had before.


I noticed your comments said nothing about the injury comparison.

Still holding on.


I don't care if it's bad luck, bad coaching, injuries or whatever Gentry is not a successful coach. It will be pretty bad next year with season ticket sales. I give it a couple of more years and this team will be gone.

You think the team is going to move with multiple years left on AD's second contract

You think they're going to to stay with an empty arena?

Team has been awful most of the year and they're no where near the bottom in terms of attendance

Plus they have a lease for a while

I'm fairly certain that it won't matter because of a certain contract they signed that keeps them here until 2024 if I remember correctly

Like I said on page 4, it was a fricking disgusting hire and both Demps and Gentry should be gone

I said it 3 years ago that this clown show would never produce a championship caliber team.

Gentry never had the pieces of a championship caliber team. He has had the pieces of a low end playoff team and has failed there, save for last year getting in on the last day or two.

Well, underwhelming hire for sure. Hope he proves me wrong, but I would have rathered keep Monty if mediocrity is the expectation.


That guy made a quality point.

Yeah, but that guy, in particular, really knew what he was talking about. We could use more posters like that guy.
