Another great year for my boys, only to end to soon. Flip can not get it done, and its more than obvious. He cant keep them interested in the post season, and for the 3rd year in a row its ended too early...
FIRE FLIP NOW!

I dont know who I would bring in, Bill Lambeire from WNBA? I dont know man, but its getting old seeing a great team be mediocre once it gets to the playoffs...

I don't think it's on the coach at this point is all I'm saying. There's a certain responsibility the players need to have, and I think they might think they're a better group than they truly are.

i find it funny how it is always the coach's fault never the player a player goes 2-20 it is the coaches the whole team gets open looks and misses 9 times out of 10 it is the coaches fault.The Coach Drawed up the play and got them open the player just missed.

I truly agree with you, there can't be 30 NBA champions per year! Does that make the other 29 coaches losers? Do all other players should be recognized as losers also?

Yes, and they'll trade Rip and Prince for Jason Kidd!!

If you saw the interview with Dumars on ESPN yesterday, I will buy into anything he is selling. Thats the type of guy I want putting my team together! Loved him as a player, love him even more as the GM.

it looks like its gonna be Michael Curry or Mike Woodson
Avery Johnson will NOT be the pistons coach for the simple fact his mavs have got bounced the past 2 1st rounds and Joe wants someone who can get over the hump..
Rasheed Wallace is almost a guarantee to get traded as well and he said everyone but Rodney Stuckey is on the block this offseason.. i just hope he doesnt complete turn the team upside down

Stuckey will become a great player but you will have to see what happens with Chauncey before. Will he be leaving the team?
