Like, really? We got a generational talent in Wemby AFTER ONE SINGLE YEAR OF TANKING and you complain and act like we’re in some tragic situation because the team is not competent yet? Do you have a clue of how team building works in the NBA?
We got MASSIVELY LUCKY to land Wemby last year, and there was no need to rush or overpay average player just to be more competitive this year. We got nothing to gain in that. Would you have preferred if the FO wasted all our cap space to get Van Vleet and Brooks?
It wasn’t even a given that Wemby would be this good right away. We should be fucking thankful and excited every time he hits like 20 points, 8 rebounds and a couple blocks. When he enters his prime, he will be unstoppable.
Stop whining like spoiled children, if you want to see a fun, competitive team play there are plenty in the league. Nobody forces you to watch the Spurs if you can’t bare the idea that the team still has to grow. Get a life
I don’t blame the frustration, and I understand the impatience, but it’s the calls for Pop’s resignation that get me riled up.
That man is NBA coaching royalty. To say that he has nothing to offer this team of 20 year olds shows so much disrespect to a legendary coach and a lack of perspective on basketball.
The truth is that Pop’s skill and long term approach to team building is exactly what these rookies need, even if it is painful today. A lesser coach would force them into mediocrity quickly in the name of short term wins.
