Are you actually arguing Orlando didn’t significantly underachieve this year? If so, you clearly have an agenda.

Of course they did. They also lost their best player in the playoffs and paolo ain't a dude like he thinks he is. Blowing a 3-1 lead is bad but they were a bad 3pt shooting team. Worse than us bad.


The formula hasn't changed for how to win in the league. You have to make 3s and guard. If we can get back to being a top defense in the league thats a major improvement and its his specialty.

Not excusing the 3pt stuff, but they had a lot of bad shooters on that team. And I think we can be better from there next year.

And yet you argue all the time with me about Dyson and say defense doesn’t matter come playoff time….

Because you refuse to acknowledge the first part of what I said. You have to make 3s. Dyson is allergic to doing that.

Except for the second Cleveland stint he's been successful. He wins 60% of his games and he had back to back winning seasons in Sacramento.


Brown has always been a good coach, and his players liked him. I hope Mosley works out in the same way.

Which players do you think will be better at 3’s next season ?

I’m guessing Murray simply cause he didn’t play a lot.

Fears and Queen with Murray. Hopefully Trey can find another level as well.

I'm also still very intrigued by Bryce McGowans. Dude has a real bag and isn't afraid to let it fly.

You're absolutely right. The difference is that Thibs handed a finished product over to Brown and is playing the same style ball as Thibs installed. Save for GTA, the team was set when Brown arrived and I assure you that GTA was not the difference maker.

Mosley is getting a roster that is two years away from being two years away.

DEFENSE!!! DEFENSE!!! DEFENSE!!!

Watch out for the "Karlo Korner Three" (KKT) and I have a lot of hope for Bryce. Poole couldn't be worse than what he was last year.
