The Neighborhood Bully 266 Report post Posted December 11, 2016 The problem is we're not bad enough to tank and not good enough to be good The good news is this draft looks so deep we could still get a star player with a late lottery pick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
magicjed23 12 Report post Posted December 11, 2016 Tough loss. Look, i know i have been told that i dont post during wins. And the truth is, the few wins we manage to get doesnt overcome the way we lose games. I look at this team and there are just fundamental flaws. We have an athletic 4 in gordon, but play him at the 3. We have a non athletic 4 in Ibaka that should be playing the 5. We have 2 other bigs; one that can score but has poor defense and the other has defense but poor scoring. We have a first round PG, that hasnt evolved since being drafted, which makes us start a 30yr old PG, becuase he handles the team better. Where is our future heading? We have tweaked the roster several times and still come out with losses. I feel bad for Vogel. He cant polish this turd. This roster needs to be flipped in the worst way. And the best part is... i have no idea who to get that would fix this mess. Ibaka unathletic? Vooch also plays very good team defense and you can run an offense around him. Vooch is not flashy, but currently he might be the most important player we have. This team needs a real SF, or at least someone capable of being productive shooting consistently and scoring that can play the position. Green is not enough for this team. Make our defenders focus on defense and our offensive droughts need to happen less often. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Magicman28 295 Report post Posted December 11, 2016 We're not tanking guys. Henny will make a trade. Let's just hope it's a real good one because I believe just about anyone can be had. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Magicman28 295 Report post Posted December 11, 2016 Yeah. We needed this one to get out of purgatory though I know. I don't even know what deal can be done either. I almost rather shoot for the draft at this point and try to land a franchise player. That's what we desperately need. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Voodoo Man 99 Report post Posted December 11, 2016 Jameer added to the magic killer list . Actually Jameer has had a good season so far. He's outplayed Mudiay all year, although that's not saying much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
