We have no clear direction , no clear rotations, we are abismal on offense with our luxury tax players in crunch time, we have lost 9 games with double digit leads, and are 0-6 in games decided by 3 points or less.

Surely this is the year we trade someone and don’t just accept the status quo right?

BI and Willie Green have to go.

What do people have so much against BI all the time no matter how well he plays? We lose that game badly without him tonight. He kept us in the game in the 3rd by himself.

The anti- BI theme just doesn’t hold water. And if Willie goes, I’m curious
who is realistically available to take over. I admit that I sometimes question his moves, but that’s literally the question with any and every coach.

Willie - BI - Jose - Naji are all attached to the hip.

If you send one off, the rest will want out too.

He's a good player but to me he just doesn't play winning basketball and isn't a great #2

He would be a very good #3 in the right fit. He's not that good a ball handler, passive, and shoots midrange and often refuses to shoot the 3 when open.

I still like him though.

What a dumb lead to your post.
We are not going to be a luxury tax team ding dong.

Possibly, but if not, that is a major red flag.


If we don't pay the luxury tax, that means we either:

A. Weren't good enough.

or

B. We are good enough to compete and Gayle still won't pay the tax which is the signal that she'll just never pay the tax, and thus we'll never be able to contend for anything of note

Yep, there are many games that BI
literally won for us with individual performance.
