Last off season we picked up a nice acquisition that really hasn't been talked about on here. I'm bringing this up now bc as everyone is talking about and complaining about the need for shooting I feel like people are overlooking that acquisition we made.

The most important thing this offseason isn't who we get in the draft. It's a coach we already have that has been sitting on the bench all season... Mark Price

For those of you that remember him back in his playing days, he was a solid shooter and one of the best FT shooters in the league. With a full off season to work with players I really think he will play a large role in helping players, specifically MKG's shot, Kemba's PG play, and outside shooting for some others. Price has worked with players in the past and if he has the same type of success we will be making a big leap just with the existing guys on the team.

For those of you that have said we need a Rajan Rondo type of player. Why trade for one when the assistant coach is the one who played a big role in developing Rondo into a good player. And a few others that would ring a bell.

While everyone else is discussing the draft and free agency, I feel the most dramatic step taken this off season is happening right under our nose in the work Mark Price is doing with the existing lineup.

sorry I am chalking MKG's jumper up as a lost cause.  If this guy is going to excel in the NBA, hes gonna have to start getting nasty and start driving hard to the basket with thunder dunks.  He does pretty good at slashing to the basket but when he gets there alot of times he puts up some really weak floating layup or some poo.  JUST DUNK THAT poo!

lol, I misread and though OP was insisting that Mark Price would be worked into the existed lineup.

Lol, no, don't think he will be making a comeback. On second thought, if he can still get up and down the court average 40% 3's and a 90% free throws maybe he should at least think about it. :-)

      CJ Stroud

      Because Young is so historically bad that it just skews too far outside the normal deviations that perspective is easily lost. That or they just don't want to believe it.  The struggles last year would have been more about the infighting and poor roster building or idiot owner's hiring practices than with Stroud. He wouldn't have been as good but he wouldn't have been ruined here and the pressure was not Carr-esk if you take out the Young created portion from his playing style.  Dude is a young guy on a team coached by a Defensive guy building a good D but not building up the O in year 2 of his HC 1st time gig. Seems familiar... Go look at his output this year and not just some crappy Thursday night implosion game, I would take that in a second and never ever look back every time without a shred of doubt while eating 4 of those games a year with a giant smile on my face.

      Brooks has a full practice Wed

      There is zero reason to sit him if he is ready to go.  Putting him on a shelf and attempting to protect does him no favors.
