I think the coach does some good things and he does some bad things. He was pretty much inflexible in Phoenix and he seems pretty intent on being inflexible here--that's the way he rides with it. I think that there are too many good teams who are using/getting production out of their draft picks and we *could* be and are not. I think we have to look in the mirror and remind ourselves we are not an elite level club--that we also have a job of integrating some parts that might be helpful down the line in the long term. I don't understand why we don't use the depth--what's wrong with saying Jordan--go out there and just play hard for 6 minutes and come back to the bench tired. If you have a shot take it--if not move it and just play hard--show us what you have but do not fear failure--play free and hard--thats all we ask.
