i dont trust mda bust-o-radar on players.. record shows once the mda banished player is on another team, the player performs.

we have a player friendly system, but not a friendly coach. maybe its what was needed along with stat being here. but it cant always be the stick all the time (ar.) or the throw you in the deep water hope you swim stuff (timo.)

timo needed spot minutes in the rotation where he could be most effective (plus build confidence get comfortable) like taking advantage of his defense when needed. instead of just throwing him into unfamiliar nba waters and saying, go swim. then when he's drowning pulling him out and banning him from the pool. and ar.. well that story been told often enough.

name them

the ones often named but excuses are given why they failed and not mda. nate failed not mda. though nate was the catalyst for the celtics late rally victory win over the knicks. jordan hill failed not mda, though jordan hill cracked the rotation of the houston rockets. darko failed not mda though darko is a big the knicks need right now. in time ar will be added to mda's list of fails.

you just named 2 bums and Darko, who said himself that it was his fault he didn't crack the rotation, that he didn't bring the right attitude.

not for nothing, but those are poor examples. Nate wasn't going to be resigned because of the cap situation. Hill was the cost for Jefferies. And Blog is on target with Darko.

poor examples.

that bum nate beat the knicks.

that's a man of straw

i watched the game, nate looked like the winning difference to me, and the announcer calling the game commented that nate should stay in the game and rondo sit because nate was having more of an impact in the celtics late fourth rally ftw.

however you try to cut the slice of the pizza, that's one game, and his impact is debatable. you're making straw figurines in a field of corn, in winter. the truth is that he's a bum. I'm not going to go into why he's a bum because that's been proven thousands of times on this forum alone.

it is not debatable to me. it is to you. it wasnt debatable to the announcer calling the game. i like pizza.

It's okay to see a player play well for someone else and still know they weren't a good fit here, at least at the time. Timing and context are everything.

Ditto Jamal and Zach.

he scored 41 points in a game while with us, against the hawks last year, but one good game doesn't make a player, doesn't make a career. tony campbell dropped 20 points per game with the timberwolves one year, but he was a bum. he's not a team player. he drops 8 points per game up there in boston and he's only barely being reigned in because he has 3 hall of famers around him. he was a little punk B when he was here and was detrimental to team chemistry.

that one good game nate had against the knicks was important it set ny up for a three game losing streak.

oh man, gthot (get the heck out of town). now you're saying nate made the knicks go on a three game losing streak. look, man, hill sucks, nate sucks, darko admitted he was at fault (hill and nate aren't man enough to admit it was their actions that caused they're fall from grace with the knicks staff, they don't want to take responsibility for their own actions, does that sound familiar? AR, just like that, but Darko too responsibility because he understands that what happens to him is his fault, his fault only, and that circumstances don't make the man but reveal the man to himself). so blasting coach mike for exiling these bums doesn't make sense, and it definitely doesn't prove coach mike to be a bad coach. we're a winning team, near elite with a few more pieces, and we're balling hard, thank you coach mike.

Coach Mike knows what he's doing, that's why he's had such a successful coaching career in the NBA league, the best league in the solar system. Period. If AR isn't playing, it's AR's fault and Coach Mike is right not to play himm.
