Not really, I still have to scroll through miles and miles of your crap when you for some reason have to quoate every freakin sentence, its almost as bad as Bonn quatiing 25 previous responses and then saying something like "agree 100%" LOL

You don't have to read my stuff. It takes a fraction of a second to scroll through it. You are simply trying to get your shot in while others are at least discussing something. Poor show simrud.

If you don't like to discuss things, and want everybody to simply just type in a few words: "LB is gr8 lol" you should look into a chat room.

But I won't be changing my style anytime soon so you are wasting valuable keystrokes from your life.

This is what it comes down to. Nobody on this site thinks LB is infallible. If you think people do then my guess is that you are over-reacting which typically happens on these sites. But it's apparent that the board is split into three camps

Camp 1: Is angry with LB for not coaching better the first 25 games. Not spending his time getting every ounce he could from the team in order to win as many games this season and ensure a playoff birth. Since I tend not to dismiss points of view as BS I do think there is merit in this point of view.

Camp 2: Of which I belong. Where LB was not concerned with the short term success of the team or his playoff seed. But instead decided to build a foundation for future success. If this meant possibly losing games in order to teach a center or a PG or a rookie a lesson, so be it. To me the early part of this season sucked but since I played for a college coach who believed in this way of teaching and I coach the same way I am excited about the future.

Camp 3-We are doomed(consisting mainly of IslesFan )

Ooohaaah: The point that everyone on this board is missing is that I said this was how it would go before teh season started. Why? Because I would have broken the team down too!!! And I was also on record saying that when the team started winning(after about 25 games) you will get everyone on this board saying I told you so thinking that the only reason we are winning is because LB finally started doing things their way. Instead of realizing that we are winning because we are being coached to win. Coaching is more than substitutions and rotations and playing the right guys. Coaching is learning your team and learning how to motivate them.

Whatever, who cares!!! You can dismiss everything I say, but all I know is I have the following

Marbs: ATtempting to lead for the first time in his career
Crawford: Learning what a good shot is for the first time in career
Curry: Gets a nutritionist
Taylor: 7 years of laziness wiped out in 25 games
Robinson: from nut to energizer in 25 games
Lee: From Center/PF to jumpshooting SF in 25 games

Lotta changes are happening for a coach that doesn't know what he is doing. Honestly I can't understand how knowledgeable fans thought that LB thought he could win by shuffling guys in and out of the roster. Maybe you are of the opinion that if we had won a few more games LB might have stuck with that system the entire year thus negating the 8 and 9 man rotations he has lived with for the past 20 years of his career. Not sure where you get the logic. But you win. LB was a bad caoch for 28 games. Great. Now those games are over. Now he has re-learned how to coach and we can all move forward.

Don't use the term "everyone" Take a look back before the season even started. My prediction was DEAD-ON. 39-43 wins and the team would struggle until late December/early January.

Actually there are a lot of us. There's a lot of us that are preaching that we could give to flying fahoots about the first 25 games as well.

Here's a quote from Geno Aureimma after playing his best player for 4 minutes in a game.

A sarcastic reporter who thought Geno had lost his mind or forgot how to coach asked "Is Charde going to play 4 minutes in your next game?"

Geno replied: "I don't know. She'll be out here to talk to you guys next, and since my players decide how many minutes they get by their play in my practices, she will be able to give you a better idea than I can. She knows what she needs to do to get on the court. And if she doesn't than she's not as smart as I think she is."

Sounds an awful lot like Larry

Now is Geno an idiot for possibly costing his team a seeding in the tournament? Or is he smart for teaching a lesson? Both camps on this site will view it differently.
