What should the team do for the rest of the season?
Tank – just intentionally lose rest of the games. Isiah needs to make an executive decision and order the team to lose.
Donft tank, but let the youths play 35min, rest the vets, and see what happens. Develop the youth.
Play to win. Forget the draft position. Team needs to finish the season in a winning mode.

play the youth...i don't want to see Malik Rose & KT logging the most minutes at C & PF...that's a joke...everyone knows what they're getting w/both of those guys...play Sweetney, Butler & Mo T & hopefully those guys will increase their value in the offseason so Isiah will have some pieces to work with.
After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.

I don't think you can tank intentionally.

But, KT certainly could go on the DL.

Why endanger Marbury? I'm sure he's got some nagging injuries.

Right now, it should be about next year.

Showcase the players you want to move, etc.

At this point, I think everyone wants the team to lose.

Right; that's why I prefer starting TT over Ariza. I'm not sure Sweetney is ready to be "showcased." I don't mind continuing to give him 20 to 25 mpg.

I'd definitely cut Marbury to 30 mpg, play Jamal at point, and give Butler a little PT (but not enough for other teams to get interested in him!)

gotta tank.

the top priority for the team at this stage is to get the best possible draft position.

if we lose all the remaining games, we'd be at the 6th. This yr's draft is regarded as a deep one, but there's a world of difference between having 6th or 9th draft position. Isiah is here to make the team better. He should tank and make sure we have a decent shot at getting the 1-2-3 pick!
