So after 3 years of not making the playoffs people would be unhappy with a 6-8 seed? I don't think so. The unhappy spot is Minnesota, disgruntled Superstar and seemingly stuck in that terrible spot on the bubble of the playoff bubble. Now multiple years of 6-8 seeds with no progress would make people unhappy, and that's what I'd imagine will eventually do Monty in, but for now it looks like he'll be here next year, and if the team is healthy they'll make the playoffs and the fans will be happy.

Not at all, but I think 6-8 at best is Monty's cap in this conference. He's simply not that good of a coach and that is something that can fly in the weak Eastern conference, but in the Western conference, it won't be worth crap.

Minnesota suffered because Rubio held out in the beginning once they drafted him, finally came over and got plagued with injuries as well as them missing on Flynn. They are moving in the right direction, but is that what you want this team to be, because that is what Monty brings to the table.

Because it's not our decision to make. I'd say at least 80% of the board would switch coaches if given the chance.

So because we don't make the decision, fans should just not talk about it and blow smoke to something they clearly see is an issue? What's the point of message boards again?

Why are you acting like I'm happy with Monty and want him to be here forever. Seeing the writing on the wall and liking the writing on the wall are 2 very different things.

I started this thread saying I didn't think Monty was actually learning despite the recent success. I asked for opinions on both sides, I want discussion, what I was hoping to avoid was emotional lashing out where even the slightest hint of disagreement makes someone an enemy. Kind of like what's going on here where you're treating me like some Monty apologist when I started this thread which basically calls Monty out.
