So Henny’s grand plan was to have this lineup last year, assuming Vooch was traded?

PG: Payton, Augustin 

SG: Fournier, Hezonja 

SF: Gordon, Green

PF: Ibaka

C: Biz

No wonder he was fired. 

Well, we would've gotten someone for Vuc, but that still looks pretty terrible.

That was actually one of our better lineups last year.  102.3 offensive rating 100 defensive rating.  Only 89 minutes though.

So we really don't have any idea what kind of lineup it was.

Nah. I think it was

Dipo, Fournier

Harris

AG

Vuch

With the plan on seeing what progresses and possibly liquidating assets the way Ainge did.

Then we hired Skiles who wanted nothing to do with Harris. Henny did his job to get Skiles his boys. Then Martins was like "Ok my bad. Win now moves." Vogel was like " ermahgerd AG next PG. Get me a stretch big, a shooting backup PG, and a defensive backup big who might seat Vuch."

Voila!

Yeah, when we traded for Ibaka and signed Biz I thought the plan was to play them both at the same time. We never really found out if it would work.

Hell we didn't even try Ibaka at center a whole lot.

 

 Ya know the more I think about it the more I start to feel that Vogel doesn't know what the hell he is doing.

No matter who our so called "starters" are we need to finish close games with our best 5 defenders. DJ-Ross-Simmons-AG-Biz. I hate the way we just dump our starters back  in the last part of the 4th regardless of how they are playing.

Man we lost some strong young assets. I can’t believe we weren’t more patient to wait for more development or better trades.

Nikola Vucevic: “I know more than anybody, that this team has taken some big hits and has been through a lot.. I really think I’m the guy who wants this team to win the most, and right now all we can do is keep fighting.”

That almost sounds like a shot at the other players. Maybe he means because he's been here the longest.

That's how Fizdale got fired. Gotta stroke the ol ego.
