FWIW, I don't agree at all, but a lot of people pay attention to Simmons, so I figured I might as well post this, since someone else would post it anyway.

I remember Monty trying to turn AD into a leader by making him do things like go to Summer League to support the new players. This team was not set up to win. They were set up to try and make lackadaisical star players start giving a frick on defense. Unfortunately when you have nothing to play for the vets that don't have one foot out of the league stop giving a frick too.
As much as people think SVG was a mistake because he's a retread, I don't think anyone else is squeezing any more defensive effort out of these kids. And I say that as someone that wanted Stackhouse to be the coach hoping he could reach Ingram. To me the question is when do you determine that this defense first mission, much like turning AD into a leader, has failed, and lean back into the offense?

I think some of the in game coaching has left a lot to be desired.
However, I don't think anyone can deny how our young players have developed. Point Zion, NAW and Hayes have gotten better, plus we found a hidden gem with Naji and hopefully Gabriel
Edit: My point is if SGV cant win, hopefully he can setup the next coach into winning

Simmons is 100% right, and I can't stand Bill. This hire never made sense. What did he do in Detroit that made any sense in him getting the job here?

I don't know how that fat f*** keeps getting HC jobs

Stan is worthless. Dude tweets 40 times a day about prison reform, etc....but hasn’t earned it like someone like Pops.
I don’t care about his politics, but it’s legitimately not a good look.
When you’re the Pels, and literally no one with a pulse wants to coach here because of the historic ineptitude, u wind up with sad hires like this over and over.

Well he’s not wrong......

I mean, he also claims Melli is one of his favorite players in the league, basically because he played his one good game of the year against the Celts. I wouldn't take anything Bill says too seriously.

I hate to break it to the SVG haters but our struggles are 85% the roster. Not him. Too many who are lazy and dumb

Bill Simmons doesn't watch the NBA anymore. Couldn't give a frick what his opinion is.
Posted on 4/27/21 at 10:36 pm to GOP_Tiger
Must really hurt him for SVG to be 2-0 vs the Celtics

I've seen little to convince me he's not one of the worst - and he's still clearly better than AG - FWIW.

i have never been a fan of the SVG hire and i still don't think he is the one who will take this team to the next level. That being said, the woes this season are on griff and his roster construction.

Those of you saying "Stan can't relate to the younger players" need to recognize that one of the main reasons that the team has struggled this season was all of the poor performances by Bledsoe, Redick, Melli, and Adams.
Our young players have progressed nicely and are continuing to get better.
