Do people really need this kind of hyperbole? He has obviously not been a disaster, as we are 1.5 games out of the play-in, without our franchise player, and we are 10-7 in our last 17 games.


Way to cherry pick the few positives of our current situation, while ignoring everything else, while accusing me of being hyperbolic in my disdain for Griff.

The cons of his tenure double the pros. He was gifted a great opportunity and has done his best to squander the assets he's acquired, while we tread water going nowhere.

He hasn't built a winner, we're still a bottom 5 team, we are relying on luck more than anything right now. He's on his 3rd HC in 3 years, luckily I think he finally got that one right. Outside of drafting Herb with a second rounder, everything this off-season was a disaster and what's sad is that it was still an improvement from last off-season.

Griff has been a disaster. Sugarcoat it however you want, just like most of yall did the Lonzo trade(which now yall are finally admitting was bad for us) and keep your head in the sand. You're making excuses for Griff, just like many did for Dell for years.

Getting Jonas, Graham and Temple, re-signing Hart on a team friendly deal, re-signing Willy on a 3 year team friendly deal, and making Willie Green the HC was a disaster?

That all happened this offseason also bud.

You can't honestly still think this after seeing this team missing Ingram for long stretches and Zion for the entire season, right?

Fully healthy this is not a bottom 5 team.

Nope. My post specifically talked about how the Lonzo deal is a fail. Your defensiveness is hurting your reading comprehension skills.

Herb is a big deal. To get a solid starter on a minimum contract for this year and the next two seasons and control him after that? That's huge.

Right now, Willie Green looks like a home-run hire. If we got our long-term coach, that's huge.

Valanciunas is a significant upgrade from Adams, and we got him extended for two more years at a solid price. That's not huge, but it is significant.

Trey Murphy and Devonte' Graham are not disasters.

There's no way to be both honest and intelligent and use the word "disaster" about our offseason.

Way to double-down on a ridiculous position.
