Isiah is so full of crap. Now he's saying that it's a 4-5 year process when he said the exact opposite when he was hired.

he did??? I could've sworn he said it would not be overnight and they are going to try to rebuild on the fly. and he confirmed that by bringing up the expiring contracts and draft picks

Yeah, building on the fly, meaning that they were going to win sooner rather than later. He said that you can't be as bad as they are right now while "rebuilding" because this town would never accept that. But tonight he says that he's a little annoyed because people are complaining about how bad they are right now since it's a 4-5 year process. Like I said, Isiah is full of crap. It's never his fault and there's always an excuse.

He also talked about the 40mil in expiring contracts and the drafts and how he likes the young core of Marbury, crawford, sweets, ariza and Nazr

Sounds like a starting 5 to me. Let's get to it already.

Herb needs to preach D to this team. Let JYD, KT, H20 come off the bench. TT? Who neeeds him?

that was a great interview. thanks for the heads up. I hope the guys who are killing Isiah watched it. He's done so much in only 1 year. As he said, he layed down the foudation because when he got here there wasn't one. and there wasn't when you are talking about the importance of clarence weatherspoon to this team and Eisely is you starting PG and he can't even start in phoenix and utah and shandon is you talented young SG.

He also talked about the 40mil in expiring contracts and the drafts and how he likes the young core of Marbury, crawford, sweets, ariza and Nazr

sorry, that core scks. i guess if he likes that core, we are fcked. whoever says the opposite, is smoking something.

I for one am growing more and more concerned with the basketball IQ of Crawford--how could you base your team on a guy like Crawford? If I was his boss, i would say 2 3s a game and thats it, and if you dont like it, you will sit. If he continues to play like he has, some night on, some night awful, we will suffer because he scks on the D.He cant make up for a bad offensive night by locking down his opponent
Nazr-should be a quality bench player
Marbury-his history speaks for him, he cant even lead us to beat shtty teams, he is a *ME* player and is NOT a winner+he will be a 10 year vet and 29 next year. By the time we are good again, he will be Houston.
Sweetney there is solid hope that he will be a good player, but he needs to lose 20 and keep it off. He could also be a candidate as a high quality bench player, but out of everyone mentioned, he is the guy who can be seen as true hope to be a pretty big PART of a good team, but again that may be as a 25 min bench player.
Ariza would get junk--garbage minutes on a good team -but potential as a defensive stopper/high energy guy off the bench is there. He needs a a boatload of work.



Look at these guys sans Sweet. Nazr-castoff-Crawford-castoff-marbury-castoff, and we call this our future, other peoples hand me downs.

Fck if it was me, I would install a style of play and focus everything on building the team front to back with tough athletic guys who play two sides of the ball.
We have a lot of dumb, soft players. Is it not true?

simple...you don't base your team on a guy like crawford. you base it on a bigman along with Marbury and Crawford is a very nice 3rd or 4th piece
