    Yes you did. Jeanie allegedly has his back, while allegedly she thought Frank ruined Westbrook's career .... errrr ..... failed to incorporate him properly with his crap play and that crap roster Frank was given as a result of that crap trade. :swear:

    Yeah, we’ll see how she feels about him if we don’t go far in this year’s playoffs, or worse yet, even make it into them.

    His lineup decisions for the most part this season have been total head scratchers other than moving Reaves into the Manu role off the bench when he was struggling earlier. Might need some roster moves just to save him from himself.

    yeah, i can think of a bunch:

    overplaying gabe early
    overplaying prince always
    using prince as a defender on ballhandling guards early in the season
    elevating reddish over christie after the preseason (i get that reddish has played well overall, but he didn't win that spot from what i saw)
    having both dlo and reaves on the bench with gabe out of the lineup

    that's just off the top of my head. and almost none of this is monday morning quarterbacking. people knew you shouldn't do this stuff ahead of time.

    You didn't mention my favorite: Ham's 5 foward lineup

    Not to mention: not playing Wood for long stretches / burying Max on the bench / playing Rui as a backup 5 at times

    No love for the Twin Tower Hayes and Wood lineup? That's my personal favorite.

    The 3 center lineup is right behind it.

    i thought of wood/hayes but then thought it didn't happen much, but THEN i looked it up and holy s***:

    upload_2024-1-11_8-16-41.png

    hayes and anyone is a recipe for death, apparently, but hayes and wood is the among the very worst possible choices (who'd have guessed?) and is one of the most popular hayes lineups!

    i wonder how ham would respond to a question about this--

    what's the theory on the wood/hayes lineup, and why don't you think it was worked as planned?

    How would you guys if you were Jeanie feel about Ham putting out for the national Media …. what You said to him in a long email to try to set his mind more at ease? What if it just went south and he had to go? That really paints her as a 2 faced owner. Which by all appearances forever she’s not that kind of a person. I’d think she maybe isn’t appreciating him doing that. I seriously doubt he replied back or asked her verbally if it was OK to broadcast her internal email.

    Been thinking this for a long time. Thank you for saying it. I wanted Sam Cassell but was happy with the Ham hiring. Couldn't of been more wrong. I thought Rob had Ham proofed our roster but I was wrong again.
