Why doesn't the league do something to maintain the integrity of the game when coaches are obviously tanking by calling plays out of timeouts that lead to baskets instead of shot clock violations and/or air balls?
Ernie is getting angry!!! It is an absolute shame if DET can pilfer the dregs of the L to shore up their squad. It has nothing to do with these 2 losses, but I think this is a H-U-G-E mistake. Happy profits, I guess. |
At current situation anger is OK, but you still should check facts: Amir actually has lately played more minutes per game than Maxi or Hayes. So it is a direct opposite of excluding.
Second unit has some growing pains: seems that Flip wants to develope them as self reliable group.Tougher path but maybe bigger prize.
