Deleterious Posted December 12, 2023 Share Posted December 12, 2023 Weaver needs to be strong enough to tell Gores no. Either that or quit. I don't mind going down with the ship if I made the decisions. I'll be dammed if I am doing it with another persons ideas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandyMarsh Posted December 12, 2023 Share Posted December 12, 2023 I know many fear another Blake trade and in turn bring up guys like Lavine but I think Blake was a special case since he was a big star in LA where Gores spends all his time, I think somebody like Lavine or Poole don't have the cache in Gores eyes that Blake had so I'm skeptical he would force a move for one of them.

He is so lazy as a journalists Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big man, often injured, big contract, plays in Los Angeles, sounds like the Pistons are going to make a run at Anthony Davis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How does this coach take 20+ games to figure out you need spacing around Cade? How does he take this long to learn how to use Ausar (roll man, DHOs, dunker spot)? How long to figure out Ivey needs to play more than 20 minutes? How long to stagger the scorers? How long to shorten the rotation to 8 or 9? How long to move Stew to the bench? How long to move Hayes to the bench? He either wants to go home and earn all this money from his couch or he just had more talent than people thought when he was in Phoenix and the guy from New Orleans is the real Monty. I'm beginning to the think it's the latter. I thought he was Casey 2.0, but he might actually be Casey 0.5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deleterious Posted December 12, 2023 Share Posted December 12, 2023 Hawks are not good so that is possibly a win, but no confidence being on the road. Utah at home is their best shot IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utah at home is their best shot IMO. I'll be at that game, so I really hope that's the one. I was stupid and bought the tickets before the season since it's only about a 5.5 hour drive and we were looking to book a couple of extended weekend getaways. Edit: Talking about the Hawks game.
