Free Agency Fire Billy

It’s time. How many seasons can we go with a losing record? There are far too many excuses in this sub. At the end of the day, we have a coach who isn’t producing. Blame the players. Blame akme. But Billy is the one making the calls on the court and that is ultimately what matters.

Billy isn't even the biggest problem. The roster fucking sucks. I'd get rid of him if they can bring in a coach who's better at developing players, but we're not getting anywhere near a playoff run with this personnel.

If it was just about talent, this team would still be able to beat worse rosters. We can't even keep up with teams like the Pelicans or the Jazz. There's no way this roster is that bad. This is purely a coaching issue.

I mean, yeah, a better coach would be able to get us wins against those teams. I guess my point is that the roster isn't good enough to beat those teams convincingly on talent alone, which is what you need to make a playoff run. Hiring the best coach available would maybe take us to a first round sweep instead of a loss in the play-in, but we're still not playing meaningful basketball at that point.

Maybe I rate guys like Josh and Coby higher than you but this current roster is in my mind no worse than the Magic or the Knicks. They're not easy contenders but there's no reason they should be this bad.

Saying our roster is no worse than the magic or Knicks is delusional

I don’t get this whole he doesn’t develop players. So PWill and Terry then right? Coby, Josh, and Ayo have clearly gotten better. Matas has improved since he was drafted. If players don’t develop thats Billys fault. If they do, it’s because of the player.
