all nba teams have talent to an extent. why can some teams overachieve while some teams underachieve?
looks at the bucks - are they super talented? nope. but jason kidd (despite being a grade A douche) has them overachieving - even after losing jabari. this is why phil's first year has been nothing short of a failure. there is no team identity...and everyone's value is worse now than it was 6 months ago.
they are trying to fit a square peg in a triangular hole. it just will not work. this season is basically the larry brown season all over again - coach handcuffed by the gm and the only difference is that the coach is not intentionally sabotaging it...he's just really bad...
your team should be running pick and roll all day with jose.
UHHHHHH NO!!! This is the way the team is going to play when they rebuild with players who can actually excel in the system. Phil is the GM and he will bring in players that can actually excel playing team ball. He gave it a try with this interim roster to see how these players responded. Some have and others haven't and now Phil can better judge what was already here. Not that it changes the fact that he was going to make major changes. He was going to do that regardless. This was the only way to expose the depth of the problems here. I totally agree with this process.
We already know they can win some games playing dumb basketball. That's not the goal. The goal is to one day play for a title and the style of play they had before wasn't going to get it done.
