You sound either delusional or up to something more nefarious like the T word when you say stupid **** like that. Especially here. We're only trying to get this team to a level with your boy .... to where it can look like some semblance of how Magic played the game .... fast like this with great passing.
Personnel bro. Things really took a turn when Horford came on board. But I'm not going to discredit Stevens... He's having an imprint on them boys, but personnel matters. Luke took our squad from 30th to 13th last year and that's with 4 rookies (3 of which were in heavy rotation for us last year) and with about 20% of our team salary in street clothes...not on the bench...but in the back room...haha. Give him the horses and I think Luke can turn up. If we're struggling with Kawhi and/or AD, then y'all can cry foul. Till then, do like Magic and wait for something tragic to happen...otherwise he's here for at least the end of the season.
I would venture to guess the prevailing opinion on this board is the opposite. The NBA didn’t start for Laker fans when Lebron was drafted and it won’t end when Lebron retires. History matters, both players before and after. It’s what the games about.
Preach! (although I would expect nothing less out of wifee) Plus Magic the player absolutely matters. Ask Bron if he saw dude growing up and isn't continuously compared to him rather than Jordan? Didn't they get together and talk about how they're both similar on the cusp of free agency? Didn't Rondo and Zo watch film with Magic during training camp? You don't think that won't happen again? You don't think it would be beneficial to Zo as a big guard to watch old footage of the boss? You don't think players are interested in what a HOF PG has to say in terms of how the game should be played? (I guess you can expect this out of me too tho, being a MagicStan...and I'm proud of it!)
I still lean towards Magic as the greatest of all time. Maybe the guy I most enjoyed watching combined with ability. Averaged over 60 wins a season for his career. Just phenomenal.
Only thing not falling was Do's jumper/teardrops...not like Zo was sitting lights out either. 'Do was a +10, ran a great floor game and got 5 more mins than Zo (-8). Why do we continue to do this? Why do we have to s*** on other players (that actually played f***ing well) to s*** on Luke's rotations. These are the problems of being 2deep at every position, folks. We'll figure it out.
Luke is always slower than everyone else . It took him a while to understand Randle was better than Nance ... Zo needs to play 30 minutes a night unless Rondo is hot like at Portland
Rondo was ok,i think zo should get at least some time in the 4th,he is the future not rondo,we should develope him and not kill his confindense,it wasnt like rondo was killing it.
