Do you have any faith that ownership and the front office will get this right?

Not talking about this season... it's already fricked. I'm talking long term.

If so, why?

Depends on if they break down and admit they need to trade Ingram

Ingram isn’t why we are losing. I mean, if you are saying he is the chip that brings in the answer, I could see this logic, but Ingram isn’t why we are losing.

If this season is fricked, let’s continue to add players via the draft, and try to turn some of our dimes and quarters into dollars. Figure out who we can move from 6-10 on the roster to get someone that can fulfill our shooting and run protecting woes.

I’m all about staying the course. We’ve been unlucky on the health front, but the team has plenty of talent.

Griff made a comment about Alvin Gentry having the answers to the test and still failed. This MFer Griff had the answers to Finals

He’s too nonchalant for me. He’s a great#2 but if he’s your best player on the floor you will always be just mediocre. Zion can change that but do we believe he will?

This ownership group has seen their other team get an offensive X's and O's coach and go on a fantastic 15 year run with a future HOF. Don't see why they can't figure out they need to do that here.

No, not really. For now, I've sorta checked out and given up. Even if they string together some wins I see how flawed everything is.

They will need to do something fairly drastic to get me really pulled back in.

That was not Gayle. She seems nice, but I don't think she has any idea what she's doing. She's deferring to guys on the Saints who are wayyyy too comfortable.

On the Pels, she's deffering to Griff.

It feels like they need to land a top 4 pick to have a shot at making a dramatic enough move to change anything. Because outside of that they'd need to use BI to make a major roster rebalancing trade, and I can't see them doing that.

Honestly Im just hoping Griffs rabbit's foot has a little more left in it, cause getting pick 1 or 2 is really the quickest get-out-of-jail-free card.

The worst thing that could have happen was shooting out to 1st place. Cause that will save jobs now

The way I see it makes things worse.

You win for a short time...

And then you miss 1 guy who you are always missing and you are one of the worst teams in the league

Well for that brief stretch earlier this year, it appeared that:
Trey was going to be a good one (he still may be)
Jose was an under the radar guy that was much better than people thought (until he forgot how to shoot or went back to the guy coming out of college that couldn't shoot)
Marshall was the kind of glue guy that every team needed.

Now we look at them now and none of them have played well for a while. Is it the players, is it the coaching?

Add to that CJ has a bad thumb and his shooting has been pretty bad. JV other than a game every 10 or so, looks like trash. Zion is back where Zion seems to like being, in street clothes. And BI doesn't appear to be good enough to overcome all of the above.
Add to that you have a young coach who is struggling to put together lineups that mesh or is just too stubborn to change.


Whatever it is, right now this is one of (if not the) worst teams in the league.

I know people don't want to see it but if they truly want to built the team around Zion, they should trade Ingram.

If they end up keeping both long term, I don't see this team going anywhere.

If you have two stars getting paid like BI and CJ, there is no excuse to go 7-20, ever. I don't care if you're missing Zion. This is a stars league and if you allegedly have 2 playing (or even 1.5), you should not be 7 and fricking 20.
