    This team is starting to remind me a little bit of the Pistons in the early '00s: while the rest of the league was focusing on building offensive teams, the Pistons hyper-focused on defense and tore up the league for almost a decade by breaking from type. 

    With everyone cloning the Warriors, it could be an interesting idea. Just need to keep the team together for a couple years so they can gel. I'll repeat that for Magic ownership: WE NEED TO KEEP THE PLAYERS TOGETHER FOR MORE THAN THREE DAMN GAMES SO THEY CAN GEL.

    This trade is amazing four years ago

    Exactly my thought. There had better be a lot of pieces going in around him, because a lot of what he is and was are due precisely to who was playing with him. We don't have a KD or Westbrook on our team.

    I would have loved this three to four years ago, but this is not a good trade. Ibaka benefits a LOT from having two of the highest scorers and best three point shooters in the league on his team. I just think this is going to be a mismatch fit where we expect him to be the same kind of player he was in OKC.

     

    If we don't put a lot of pieces around him, this is going to be a Steve Francis-esque move.

    I honestly don't see why people are so against Skiles being the coach. He's shown that he can take a team and make them better; that's what we need right now. He never had the roster to make a deep playoff run. The fact that he has a winning record with some of the teams he's coached says something to me. We can always fire him if he doesn't pan out; I don't see what the problem is.

    Really this - he took a Chicago team and molded them back into a legitimate threat. I'd say they still have a little of that unselfish, defensive mind that he instilled.

     

    I'd love to have Skiles here.
