What are you talking about? Okafor played 82 games the past two seasons. Meanwhile Chandler has a degenerative foot condition. Go back to your hole seriously you haven't made a single credible post.Originally Posted by Oh! Captain

did u just say that okafor isnt a right fit for this team? dude why do u even bother posting, yup tyson was a MUCH BETTER fit, we dont need a post up center shot blocker cuz we have so many of those rightOriginally Posted by Oh! Captain
people who think firing scott was a bad idea......what was good about keeping him? the team was falling apart. we didnt develop rookies. our rotations were terrible. our defensive scheme froma "defensive minded" coach were terrible (see doubling against spurs ans sun when they drained 3s on us), we lost by over 50 at home in playoffs. he has players go from starter to inactive and from inactive to starter....no in between.
whats to like?
do i think our MGMT in the organization is to blame as well? YES
do i think bower and floyd will be bad? yes
do i think we are going to have a terrible season now? yes
will cp3 be upset this season? yes
but it will all be worth it if we can make some trades, and make some good hires....im excited for the personel moves and next season already
If so, does this make CP a coach killer like Jason Kidd? At this point, I wholeheartedly approve of "coach"icide.Originally Posted by Adam the Legend
I still think this will get worse before it gets better (30-35 wins max), and I hope to God Tim Floyd keeps his commentary to xs and os on the sidelines. He's liable to get punched by a player.
Alright, my mistake.Originally Posted by jmaninc68
But Bower didn't pick CP3 and Bernie Bickerstaff chose Emeka.
i dunno i always heard cp3 liked scott?
i wish someone would get an interview with him see what he says.
I wasn't referring to Okafor about the back problems. That was inclined to Peja.Originally Posted by metalzo
Zach Randolph scores and block shots to, maybe we should trade for him.
I really don't see Okafor as a center. He's not a good post defender at all and routinely gets abused by bigger stronger centers
you are correct but to say that bower had no input in those pickups is wrong, thats all i was trying to sayOriginally Posted by Sneakerhead
He's going to say the usual stuff a star player who liked the coach says when this happens. "Sorry to see him go he was a great guy and I learned so much from him but I understand the team had to go in a different direction etc. etc."Originally Posted by WhoDatHornet
you know i was thinking van gundy...but figured i would get flamed.Originally Posted by CP3nDX30

Magloire grew as a player and learned his trade under Brian Hill...before Floyd took over. Floyd inherited a good situation with Magloire.Originally Posted by tbo
As far as the "real basketball minds" go....why is it that the rest of the NBA thinks he's a joke? There is a difference between being a basketball guy and an NBA basketball guy.
Good post. Maybe now that we have a guy like Floyd we can develop our younger talent instead of just letting the ride the bench. I'm pretty sure Bower didn't like to see our draft picks over the last couple seasons just sitting the bench and only getting some burn in garbage time.Originally Posted by Big Fan
I think West is as good as gone and the sooner the better if we are going to deal him for a player that factors into the future of the team. There are a few contending teams that could really use a player like West, but a soft PF is not what we need now.
Call me crazy, but, uhh... wouldn't this be a good time to give Chad Shinn his first assistant coaching job?
Agreed Okafor would be better served as a 4. That's why I'm hoping the longterm plan is to deal West at the deadline for a young prospect or two and maybe a pick. Then you either put the young prospect (or a lottery pick) as your starting 5 with Okafor at the 4.Originally Posted by Oh! Captain
A very necessary first step was taken today, and I am quite happy about it.

He's not going to publicly throw him under the bus (see Tyson Chandler), but CP can separate friendship and winning. And when it comes down to the game -- and I think we all agree with him --, winning is all that matters on the business end/basketball court.Originally Posted by WhoDatHornet
Now...whether this move actually makes a difference in the W-L record -- only time will tell.

Wow.
I figured Scott would go, but not so early in the season.
Also, Bower & Floyd disappoint me, as I'm sure it does everyone else. It's almost like we're mailing in the season, less than ten games in.
Assuming this is only a temporary fix and that we'll clean house next season. A good thing in the long run but man, it looks like this season is already over for us.

We don't need to go out and dismantle our whole team. We need a coach who is going to light a fire under these guys and make them want to play. We have ZERO engergy this season. Jeff Van Gundy doesn't take crap from players. He doesn't care if youre michael jordan, if you aren't going hard, you aren't playing. This team needs a harsh wake-up call from a stern coach.
i know bower the head coach but does any1 think floyd will take his spot?
