Both CBA's

If it didn’t work in Phoenix with Nash and Stoutamire... it’s just not a winning formula. It’s an entertaining formula, but not a winning one. - Derek Harper talking about D'Antoni's System

DIDO SPEAKS:
Isiah will be fired very soon folks. I am one who loves to give people chances to prove themselves, but Isiah more than showed that he doesn't have a clue about how to manage a roster as a GM. I hope he can come out of the gates very strongly and take away that bad tast out of my mouth. If after 10 games the team is not over .500, Isiah should be fired.

Actually it's fine the way it if posters read the thread through.

Obviously Superstars & All-Stars because we have not one.

Nichols is EXACTLY what this team needs. A great shooter with size. We need a guy like that to roam around on the floor and occupy a defender. Just his presence alone down the line will be a benefit to this team. From what i've read he's also a decent defender:

Defensively, Syracuse actually played man-to-man defense on quite a few possessions over the course of the game, so it was easier to get an accurate gauge on Nichols’ defensive abilities than in the past. Matched up against athletic swingman Anthony Mason Jr., Nichols showed no problems chasing him without the ball, getting through screens relatively easily and not giving up too much space to his opponent. Unfortunately, no St. John’s player made an attempt to take Nichols off the dribble, so his lateral quickness is still very much in question, as it’s normally masked by Syracuse’s zone defense. To Nichols’ credit, he showed good awareness in the zone defense, was active on the weakside when he needed to be, and did a good job boxing out on the defensive glass.

THE thing that i'm so happy with is that isiah has steadily increased this teams talent level in the draft and he's been plugging holes. AT this point the only thing anyone can have a complaint about is shotblocking. Other than that we have just about everything else we need from our developing young players. Lee, Balkman, Mardy, Morris, Chandler, Nichols and Nate is a lot of young talent to have.
