BINGO!!!!!!!!

But how so? Not in the team Phil's assembled. He added a lot of talent and deserves credit for it. I've given him credit for it repeatedly. Even the players acknowledge it -- Rose was calling us a super team, saying there's more talent here than he's ever had with Chicago. It's not the talent level or the head coach, who I happen to think was a very good hire--again, give Phil credit. Stark difference to me, until someone can prove otherwise, is that Presti doesn't have some monster ego about some philosophy he used to employ as a head coach back in the day and is now trying to force said philosophy down the throats of his players/head coach. Presti builds the team--that's the extent of his involvement for the most part, as it should be. Billy Donovan coaches the team, comes up with his own schemes and gameplan, holds his own coaches' meetings, runs practices how he sees fit, etc. Phil's taking it a step or two further here and I honestly believe it's become detrimental to our cause.

SO WHAT he's added talent, he still doesn't know how to use it. It's like a you buying a very fast car and not driving above 40mph..

How you hire PnR players, and tell them to run the triangle..smgdh

Because there aren't any triangle players with talent. So u keep Sasha and add Phil's former player / coaches to teach them.
