    You have to have a plan B. As others have rightly said, we don’t have a floor general to run a freelance system. As a result, it turns into chaotic, ugly basketball. It’s blatantly obvious that Gentry cannot adapt without a lead guard. That much is clear.

    It's perplexing.
    It's so irritating. Nobody cuts. Whenever Hayes rolls, nobody finds him: sometimes nobody even seems to look for him. It's like the entire team is mildly offended by the idea of scoring within 5 feet of the hoop.
    Basketball.

    Something needs to be done. Tonight. Right now. Gentry can't keep surviving this BS. What in the holy hell do they still see in this decrepit coach?

    Frank is, according to PIPM measurements, the 13th worst player in the NBA this year.

    He is saved from being the worst by such luminaries as Jordan Poole, Dennis Smith Jr, Darius Garland, and Cam Reddish.

    Yep. It’s one of the reasons why the Boogie experiment didn’t take off before his injury. We had him jacking 3’s and trying to drive from the 3 point line. We didn’t have him utilized in the paint and the movement wasn’t good enough from our guys then either. One thing has been a constant. The head coach.

    Because defense isn't a priority or a reality.

    Whoopty bloody doo. That's doing this franchise a huge solid. Might as well extend him for 8 years. We have the nicest darn coach in the NBA. Coaching prowess? The hell with that nonsense!

    God I want it to end.

    Why is this so funny? He might as well have said “ you can’t win the game if you score less than the opponent”. He’s as good as fried. It might be best for his health to step down. Dude looks like he got hit with Pepper Spray at the end of each game. Eyes and face all swollen and the look like he just got wrongly convicted of something.

    Offense is predicated on skill. For the most past, Defense is simply desire and 'want to'.

    This team, under this coach, shows neither.

    Interviewer: ''Alvin, the game was pretty close through the first quarter but things started to unravel a little bit in the second there. Do you think that was a result in the change in offense the bench guys brought in, or do you think that Dallas just started making some of those difficult shots they missed early?''

    Alvin Gentry: ''Basketball is a sport played by two teams. Each team must place exactly 5 players on the court at any one time; the object of the game is to score points by inserting the ball into one of two hoops which is assigned to your own team. The winner of the game is the team to have scored the larger number of points after the total in-game time of 48 minutes has passed. Players must dribble the ball in order to move, and once the dribble has been picked up again it must either be passed or shot; any attempt to begin a new dribble is a violation of the rules. Players can tally points, rebounds, assists, steals, blocks, turnovers, and personal fouls; these statistics are recorded on what is called a ''box score'' by the scoring officials of each game, and -''

    Interviewer: ''Okay thank you Alvin.''

    I know. Not faulting you, just flying off the handle now so I don't develop an ulcer or two from bottled in disappointment and anger in the future.

    Last game should have done that. We lost to OKC, another below .500 team, twice in a row, both on the road and at home. If that doesn't kick you in the gut, nothing will.

    It should have kicked in three weeks ago.

    If they didn't, who can blame them? This system is so destructive to both mind and body.

    This is the worst I have seen the fans all year. It’s as clear as day, the preseason hype is long gone

    And yet NY are looking at sacking their coach, but good old New Orleans will keep Gentry for another year.
    If NY are the laughing stock then I don't think New Orleans is far behind.

    Might not be the answer, but keeping Alvin isn't the answer either.

    After losing 5 straight, and this is what we got on National TV.. and you want pride in the next game? Lol this team ain’t got no pride man! Putting up a stinker against OKC the other night proves it.

    An offensive goal should not and should never be shooting 40 threes. Thats an outcome not a goal.

    During training camp, you never just concentrate on defense and "offense will take care of itself." You need to practice both ends.

    Those were two very ominous omens that are showing its *** right now.

    I wonder if the Knicks would trade Elfrid for Bozo straight up.
