    Apparently the nail in the coffin was Griffin's obvious animosity toward Giannis' brother. Saying stuff like he didn't belong on the team, etc. That'll get pretty much any coach fired if your organization wants to keep an MVP around.
    So, he’s an idiot, to boot. Jeez,that’s as bad as Mark Jackson going at Joe Lacob’s gay son with his fundamentalist outlook.

    Stupidity will cost you jobs. Carrying an obvious gift to Giannis in the 15th roster spot won’t.

    Sounding more like Liliard.

    Altho hard, near impossible to believe they canned Griffith without Greeks approval.
    He says he's very surprised. If he's not acting.
    Yeah, freaking weird to fire a coach after having a 30-13 record.

    Lamarcus said pop makes them learn about geography .

    Like honestly dude just retire and become a politician. I see pop more passionate about that than coaching. All this culture focus has just neutered all of our players into pussies. I won’t be surprised if CP becomes a soft player being here too.

    I don't se the reason on firing someone that's doing exactly what's been scheduled to do... Aka being a lottery team for the last season before starting the new spurs road. We need a second and third option and a bunch of veterans for winning...a structure that goes on for years. As of now we have the main player and maybe 2 pieces that can become for a long time, at least one of them, starters. I high on Castle and I like Vassell but the first one needs to learn the job and the second has too many health problems to be considered a stable second or third option. This is the last year we can gather some young and talented bodyes controlling in part our destiny (our pick). Frankly I think next season will be the one we'll use our assets and possibly our cap and or exceptions for defining the final structure of a contending team for next year

    Funny you should bring this up. During one of the previous games, I was thinking to myself he's looking like a nice guy playing for the Spurs. He's not the same, scrappy player he was on other teams. Maybe it's early, or maybe it's age, or maybe he's just acting differently once he put on that Spurs uniform.

    Well Sochan has gotten better but I'm sure we'll purely credit the player for that one. The coaching is only an issue when the player doesn't get better, it's never the players fault....

    I'm no basketball expert so I can't see any valid reason for Pop's Jeremy/Castle/Wesley lineup, could you please elaborate why did he ruin two consecutive games with it.
    Because that's when both Rockets and OKC got the advantage.

    Do you watch other games?
    Replacing incompetent coaches instantly improved some teams for the better.
    Darwin Ham was so bad that JJ Re looks like a great coach compared to him.
    Kenny Atkinson instantly unlocked the Cavs' potential with pretty much identical roster and they're even missing a starter.
    Bud already improved the Suns offense.

    What's Pop been doing for the past decade? Nothing except having everyone lose their minds over nonsensical lineups.
    Remember Patty/Bryn/Marco lineups?
    Started Bryn for two straight seasons when we were still trying to compete.

    The closing lineup should be CP3/Castle/Vassell/Sochan/Wemby. For now I guess use Champagne or Wesley in place of Vassell I agree. Those rotations suck. But like, how many games are you really gonna win with a mid roster and your franchise savior giving you 6 points on 5 shots?

    Also Darvin Ham is one of the worst coaches I've ever seen. Re actually seems good although they got their asses completely kicked by Cleveland yesterday.

    The issue is that starting/closing lineup is irrelevant if the bench lineups are dysfunctional and put us in an impossible position.
    I don't think even two non-shooters is passable in today's league, three just make it impossible to score.
    Mamu needs to get more minutes if he can keep shooting like he did in pre-season.

    At this point I'm honestly not sure what's Pop's actual level since we haven't had any real tests since that Denver series that was years ago now.
    He's a living legend, but what's the point of having a 75 year old in charge of a young team? Where's the long term project there? Better get someone who will grow with the team rather than retire in a couple of years.
    We missed on too many coaches because Pop keeps on going and then you realize it's Brett Brown sitting next to thim. What a disaster.

    Malaki Branham is an absolute bucket now, 58% FG, 58% 3G, 70% EFG%.

    I think that second Rockets game was winnable until that horrible ending lineup where Johnson/Branham were out there together.

    Pop's an all time coach. He won because of TD but he also could have won 0 les with TD. I don't expect him to continue for much longer.

    Sochan's improvement is more related to his at ude/maturity and sustained efforts that are expected at his age and stage of his career.

    We're expecting from the coaches to see improvements in his shooting but it looks worse.

    The fact that Wemby sucks is irelevant

    One of just a few black and silver linings this young season. Hope he keeps it up.

    Pop should‘ve quit once Duncan retired. He‘s been washed up for years now. The only coach who’s even more overrated than him is Doc Rivers.

    Pop is obviously top3, if not top1 depending on your criteria.

    But the problem is that current Pop is nowhere near peak Pop. It's just that it's way more difficult to see when a coach declines compared to players getting old.
    I honestly want someone with peak Pop's mentality and not a laid back coach who keeps talking how some things are more important than basketball. They are, but we need our players to be at 100% every possession.
