    should we start the game as if we really don't care about the outcome?

    the luke experiment is over. time to cut the cord and bring in someone new

    kuzma, ball, and BI have not made any significant strides from last season. meanwhile, guys like d-lo and randle are balling out on different teams. coincidence? maybe luke is the problem

    I expect an ESPN Breaking News Alert saying he's been fired any minute.

    It's time.

    Well, the roster construction is flawed; so, that in part is on Magic/Pelinka.

    Nevertheless, he is gone, IMO. Magic will fire him after the season, IMO.

    A decent coach with a legit offense system could at least make it more efficient...the half court system is a joke

    We won't look much different. If you're going to fire Luke then you gotta clean out the coaching staff and replace right away. I have no faith in any of the assistants, B Shaw included.

    All the post game interviews from our players tonight they sounded like they were speaking at a funeral. If Luke hasn’t lost this team I’d be shocked. If you can’t get them to show up with energy for the damn Knicks or Cavs to show they can ball without LeBron, what are you even doing. We look so lost and poorly prepared. I don’t think Luke is going to be fired right now, but I think he absolutely will and should be at the end of the season.

    I do NOT want to see him fired and then mistake #5 happen immediately after though, like Luke is fired and then we hire Mark Jackson. Think outside the damn box. All we have done since Phil was fired (and even in between then with Rudy T) is go after known names that we think will appease fans. Potato Head, Pringles, B0ron, Luke, all mistakes. Meanwhile Snyder, Clifford and other assistants we’ve had have gone on to success elsewhere because those teams saw equality assistants and took a chance. We APPEARED to do that with Luke, but it’s pretty clear now that anyone can tell that Warriors roster to go out and do their thing and they will. All a coach there has to do is not F it up, like again, Mark Jackson did. Friggin Potato Head won with them when Kerr was out, pretty apparent now anyone can. Next coach look for a smart college guy, or an assistant from like the Spurs or something with an actual basketball coaching background and known system.

    If we lose the next game as well he should get canned.

    Yeah that’ll fix it. I’m sure KCP instead of Hart or something is gonna turn this thing right around

    i'd be fine with firing luke and promoting shaw for the rest of the season

    lebron comes back, they'll make it rd. 2 of the playoffs at best and then they can start looking for a new coach in the offseason after firings take place. just get luke out of there
