This team will always be average under the control of Monty Williams and the construction of Dell Demps. It's really a tragedy when you look at the potential out there every night. Running ISO's for Austin Rivers, trying to break zones with Asik at the top of the key, and AD getting no shots for minutes and minutes at a time will continue to plague us until Williams is gone. Every year that the Bensons let this continue, Nola becomes a less and less attractive destination even with our superhuman PF.

Well you can have this thread exactly half the time. That is what the OP is saying. We are stuck in NBA no man's land. Outside of the lottery and outside of the playoffs. We need a coach that can game plan and light a fire under his players.

We won a home game against a team without 3 of its best players. Then are getting blown out on the road. Sounds like definition of mediocrity at best to me.

frick Monty. There's nothing in the world that would change my mind on him at this point. He's winning games despite his dumb arse because of Demps putting individual talent on the roster. I don't buy the Demps stuff just yet. One year with a real coach and Demps. Is that to much to fricking ask?

Or when we beat Houston and OKC on the road.

The OP is correct, but it is what it is.

Side note. That defensive juggernaut Asik only has 4 rebounds , and has been averaging only 26 mins a game.

They really didn't miss a beat with joseph.

Funny these threads come after a loss(especially on a back to back).

It could come after a win too if you want. These guys understand what I'm saying. 50-50 is mediocre. And that's all we will ever be. Not having a 3 game win streak all year? That's mediocrity. if we pull this one out, It'll make 3 in a row. And I'll shut up.

I know. This place was dead last night. We go on the road and are losing to a good team and everyone has to bitch.

I haven't seen any of the game but I didn't really expect much and it isn't over.

You're better than this generic baiting. People aren't gonna pee in people's win Cheerios after a win. Not to mention, people aren't celebrating the coach, they're celebrating the players.

It's another to point out inconsistency in overreaction "Trade XX" threads after 1 game. The story never changes with Monty. He's a borderline idiot in charge of an NBA team with a top 3 player on the planet. It's not even funny anymore. It's sad we're subjected to this loser.

I am not sure why everyone is downplaying this thread. OP didn't say we are crap, he is comparing us to Philly or the Knicks, he is saying we never know what team we are going to get. Win 1 lose 1. .500 record = Mediocrity until something changes you can't argue with his point.

Plus who the hell says sit after a win?

That's mostly on monty for sure.

This team will have its bumps in the road but people make it a point to call out numerous things after every loss.

I mean it gets tiring.

Well the Pels had about $15 million and one of their best players inactive also.

I've never seen a team like this... It's like W L W L W L night to night.... so frustrating. We know if we put it together we can win games. Not like we have to have monster games or anything with someone playing out of their mind. Just have to put it together and do what we are capable of night to night..... Please Karl

How about this? This team wins in SPITE of Monty and his arse line ups and garbage adjustments. Is that better? This team needs a new damn coach. PERIOD.

You are such a terrible poster. PT deserves better than your repetitive threads.
