No MKG has really hurt. I know it may see like he isn't that important but since he's been hurt we haven't been successful. I also wouldn't mind us trading for a true PF. With Kemba being inconsistent lately I wouldn't mind seeing Roberts get more minutes. Surprisingly Hendo has done well so I couldn't really say sit him over PJ.

Why did we bring Lance Stephenson to Charlotte just to have that man sit constantly on the bench in critical moments in the game...yea he gave up a couple 3s to Matthews but damn man. I'd rather have Lance guarding him than Roberts due to size...4-12 is not how we envisioned starting the season tough schedule or not...good thing we're in the East

Yeah, I've been thinking that... What is always characteristic of bad teams? They fall apart in the 4th. This team does it all the time. As you said, they stop one leak and another one spouts up. When we think we have one flaw figured out, we develop another one.

Roberts was having an awesome night... Gets fouled, I think we were down by 9, goes to the ft line, and misses both of them, lol. Didnt he lead the league in ft shooting last season? That's what I'm talking about. This team is

broken.

And honestly, I know it wouldn't be a good look, but Clifford should be fired. It's dumb because you don't do that unless there is a better option, plus, considering our history with coaches, it just wouldn't be good... But he is horrible this season. Rotations are beyond stupid, he has continuously shown up our "star" FA signee while favoring others who continue to play horribly... Things just aren't looking good.

I think you fire Cho before Clifford.

There was a team here that worked. Was it talented? Not championship caliber, but had the chemistry and skill to get into the playoffs.

I credit Cho for doing what he could to improve that roster, but his backup plan was absolutely atrocious. The defense that Al desperately needed from somebody at the 4 gave way to #spacing from a small forward who doesn't even shoot that many threes.

Meanwhile, Gordon Haywards replacement was Lance Stephenson who, as great of a value play as it was, doesn't fit the roster at all and might as well be a more volatile version of Gerald henderson.

Bottom line, when we really needed to either maintain or improve the key areas of the team that kept us out of the race for Wiggins last year, we downgraded considerably and now that lottery team has been exposed.
