This is also a young team,

so a 2nd year player, a 4th year player, a 5th year player, an 8th year player and an 11th year player as your starting five are young, with a 4th and 15th year player as the first two off the bench?


We went out of our way by trading draft picks this year and not playing our rookie to make sure we weren't young.


The Rockets have a new coach and a completely new team, and are far exceeding what anyone expected of them. But youngness and floor spacing and not enough time in the offseason blah blah blah. The Rockets don't have excuses. The Thunder don't have excuses. The Grizzlies don't have excuses. The Cavs don't have excuses. Even the Bulls and the Knicks have been playing better than us, and there's just no reason for us to be one of the 5 worst teams in the league right now, which we clearly are.


They need to turn this shite around this year. I'm not saying they need to make the playoffs or anything, but they cannot continue in the direction they are headed right now without some major changes being made. I"m sorry but depending on what happens with the trade deadline and the rest of the season, i have no problem telling Griff and Stan to get the hell out of here at the end of the season. I'm usually one to give people time to show what their long term plan, but this is clearly heading south really quickly. THere is far too much on the line for this franchise in the very near future. They both have a lot of improvement they need to make this season for me to change my mind about both of them. I can understand maybe with Griff having a more long term roster plan, but regardless of the roster, SVG has been a pretty shitty looking hire thus far.

You can tell me well look at the Mavs and Heat. Well the Heat have missed a ton of games due to covid bullshite and injuries. Bulter has played in less than half their games. The Mavs have had similar issues with covid bullshite, and there has been a lot of talk about Luka and Carlisle not getting along, and i can tell you which guy will win out on that argument if it persists, the one they are about to pay $35+M year to play for them for the foreseeable future.
I doubt either the Mavs or Heat are worried about how they are doing right now, as they both understand the situations they've had with so many starters missing a bunch of time.
