    We will continue to put these words on repeat all season until Rob fixes this imbalanced squad. I think he can, it will just take this deadline plus the summer to get there.
    I know we were hoping Smart would dramatically turn back the clock and be our defensive lead, but injuries and age have greatly hindered this- just like with most.
    Is it worth watching this game for Thiero’s minutes?

    We got our a** kicked, but I'm not ready to declare, that all is lost yet. We have a lot of the right ingredients IMO. Rob should already be zeroed in, on trade targets to upgrade us into contender status. I still don't believe that we are as far off, from that as some folks. One or two mid-level moves should do the trick. I'm talking This season, not over the summer.

    i think we were doing it with smoke and mirrors, and then teams just kind of figured us out. i think there are strategic counters that we haven't employed, but some of it is just we don't have the right guys. but we all knew that coming in.

    We need to get rid of at least 3-4 players and hope, that "new guys" bring some grit and energy.
    Also, JJ needs some in game adjustments and "plan B". If we face OKC, Houston, Denver, PHX, SA or even Minny, we're getting smoked.
    Btw, PHX looks much better than i anticipated, i guess getting rid of cupcake made them like basketball again... GSW should take notes and send Donkey packing.
