Wow. Just wow...
Do you have any idea what you're seeing out there? This far surpasses the idea of losing to get a better lottery pick.
That's a team that is NO LONGER a team by any stretch of the imagination. They were listless and uninterested right from the beginning. They don't communicate, they don't play team ball, they don't even look at each other very much. They weren't prepared and they shouldn't have even been allowed to take the court in the 4th quarter out of respect for the game of basketball as a whole. This is a team with REAL problems and one stupid draft pick isn't gonna fix it.
Be very careful what you wish for.

Why? It hasn't been management making the mistakes. People wanted change. Well this is what change looks like...
Some of you wanted this team to lose. This is what losing to bad teams feels like. It's not very much fun, is it? And believe me, it used to be like this all the time. The difference was the fan base loved the team. If this kind of stuff continues, those fans will drift away slowly but surely - and the people kicking the major bucks for the season tickets will quickly find something/anything else to spend their money on.

been that way for awhile VF...for most of the season, in fact. I wonder if Ron will still say we're gonna make the playoffs...with THIS team?? I have to agree with you that one lottery pick isnt going to fix anything, but who knows...I mean, I dont want to put TOO much faith in GP, but he HAS been here before, and has rebuilt a team in a hurry...albiet with a better crop of FA's to choose from before...it will probably take 2 years to rebuild, but hey, if we can do what Utah did, then I'm all for it...I'll take 2 years of losing to get back to winning.
And I disagree only with the idea the starters are dogging it. I think they've just lost heart and I can't blame them. It all starts AND ENDS with the leadership. And they're a ship without a rudder in a stormy sea. They have NO definition of who they are or what they're going to do from game to game. And I think it's finally just taking its toll.
You can't keep playing roster roulette like Musselman does and expect your players to buy into your vision. Especially when it seems more and more clear you desperately need the services of one of the advertisers. Musselman's vision for this team is in dire need of Lasix surgery. Or a brain transplant.
