Seriously? Don’t have an exact number, but quite a few. He has done a good job this year, but we have a very very good roster. There are several coaches who could have this team in the 2-4 seed....

True, there is zero indication that the players don’t want to play for Willie at this point, quite the opposite if anything. I am jumping the gun.
It’s more that I am cautious to give Willie praise for the positive culture he’s created and his motivational abilities (you gotta fight, all that). I...

You know what makes a player want to play for a coach? When they see competency. No matter how positive and motivational Willie is, if the players believe that he doesn’t know what he is doing, they won’t respond. You have to be both a good coach and motivator....
re: Straw Poll- Zions Future
Posted by rondonumbanine on 1/28/24 at 4:15 pm
Not sure why anyone thinks the word “Zion” and “develop” go together. He’s physically regressed since he’s been in the NBA and hasn’t developed a single basketball skill....

You could say he weighed anything between 275 and 305 and I would believe it...

re: In season tourney starts tonight for Pels
Posted by rondonumbanine on 11/10/23 at 1:42 pm
I'm kind of excited. I think the play-in is cool and would enjoy it a lot if the Pels made it to the bracket play. Just wish Jose was out there because I know he would gaf....
re: JMO: In the long term, I think Dyson Daniels will end up being a "better" player than Trey

Has anybody been keeping up with how Daniels has looked for team Australia so far?...

Exactly. He is a good follow for Pels discussion and info, but he constantly talks about himself and asking his followers what they think about him, insightful and insufferable ...

I agree about MM. I do remember the Jake Madison thing a little differently. I remember there being a select few idiots, but the majority of people being civil with him. He got butthurt by the select few idiots and by people (very reasonably and validly) questioning the piano situation that he false...

Looking at some center options around the league
Posted by rondonumbanine on 6/29/23 at 1:16 pm
I'm choosing to not look at contract and salary when doing this, but focusing on their on-court impact. From the center position, what this team needs most is rim protection, PnR defense, rebounding, and availability. I'm looking at their average # of games played over the last 5 seasons, field goal...
