First Nellie, then Cubes and now Carlisle..fuckin' shoot me now


Dallas coach Rick Carlisle is content with the team's roster and believes that they can win with what they currently have.

"I like this team a lot," Carlisle said. "There's a formula for success, and it involves consistency and being a strong rebounding team defensively, and offensively being efficient. When we do those things, we're very difficult to play against." :bang:bang:bang

Carlisle admitted that it has been hard for him to gauge how well the team can play with forward Josh Howard, who has struggled with injuries.

"It's been difficult for us to put long periods of sustained play together with him, but we got to press on, with or without him," Carlisle said

So do Spurs fans. We're delighted to see the Mavs reach their true potential

What else is he supposed to say in that situation? He has to do whatever he can to keep guys positive until they get healthy.

Yeah pretty much. This team sucks, is mediocre, etc etc... but it's just not appropriate for a coach to come out and say that, even if it is the truth.

Another thing: "There's a formula for success, and it involves consistency and being a strong rebounding team defensively, and offensively being efficient. When we do those things, we're very difficult to play against."

This is true, for ANY team though. what separates good from mediocre is the consistency with which the good teams do it and the consistency with which th emediocre teams do it.
