Who is to blame for these loses? The players or the coaches?

Now that Hedo is gone we have to find another scapegoat to put the blame on.

THAT'S what peace-of-mind looks like, for those wondering at home.

I wouldn't be surprised if there is tension between the players and Stan Van Gundy. THen gets fired and we replace him with elmayi.

I got a Vince Carter jersey for Christmas, he's been pure steaming poo since then.

 

The Miller4Prez jersey curse lives!

 

 

Now, excuse me as I go purchase a LeBron James jersey.

I think it's the fault of the teams we play that win. Darn it, they just go out and try to win!!!!

No..that's it, we can still blame him because he left!!!!

 

So Hedo is the answer...now what's the question?

I blame the players. Coach shouldn't matter. These guys are talented, and make a lot of money. They should want to win for themselves and the fans.

In your opinion, and not a biased fan opinion but rather as a student of the game of basketball. Are the coaches the reason why our players are underachieving? Have the players grown tired of Stan Van Gundy? Or are the players simply underachieving?

 

no, no, yes

 

Exactly.

 

Stan last saeason proves that he is a good coach. He make us a conference champions. And in a seven game playoff we beat Boston witout Howard.

 

This team supposedly, has more talent that our core of last year. So why the hell Stan would have the blame on this?

 

howard say in "the name of the team" that Stan yells too much. But After some time rashard says that Dwight doesn

Yeah but what Van Gundy needs to realize is that this is a different team now; our 3-point shots are not falling as much as they used to and we're not winning games we won last year (including the Lakers sweep).

 

Strategies change -- no shame in that -- and they need to change right NOW if we are to keep competing.

What do you mean they aren't 'falling as much as they used to'? Last I checked when comparing last year and this year's team in front of 3 pointers, they were virtually identical.

 

Although ThisIsTheYear could confirm that for me again.
