The Corbin hate, if that's what you want to call it, is being overblown around here. Corbin is not a great coach, but he's not terrible, either. We're talking about a guy who got his head coaching start due to another situation in which the established head coach was deposed during the season. Then he made the playoffs two years in a row, in the tough western conference. Then, he lost his two best players for nothing, literally, on the same day, and suddenly (big surprise) his team wasn't good any more; I mean, clearly that was all on Corbin, right? Who the hell could have foreseen that a team whose two best players are Gordon Hayward and Derrick Favors wouldn't be any good?
I think that what we're seeing in Corbin right now is a guy who's already been in this situation once before, and knows that, even though he's a dead man walking, his best chance of getting another coaching job is to "play ball" with the guy signing the checks.

Lazy, pathetic, disgraceful. How can the SAME guy shoot from the SAME spot on the floor without anyone stepping up? Everyone is playing at half speed. Even when we called the TO, Ben wasted 6 seconds making it to the half court line to call it. Normally, you try to run it up as quickly as you can to save as much time as possible.
