I'm kind of tired of the league playing Trae as a villian and a coach killer. LP was just NOT the guy, Nate did good at first but his style and results have not been good for the team since the ECF. Had we not gone to the ECF we probably would not have kept Nate but you can't fire a new coach right after they take you to the ECF. The coaches Trae has supposedly gone through should have been let go sooner than they were. This year Trae has actually tries on defense and besides that ONE issue of leaving practice after the Nate issue basically telling him to leave Trae has not been a public issue of any type. I see NOTHING on the court that says Trae is a slacker or coach killer or locker cancer, he is a lifetime 27/10 guy and he is still REALLY young I think the Media is trying to drum up an agenda against Trae and the Hawks and it is silly. A good coach could really turn this team around as we do have a great top 8 on our roster, we just need to flesh out the bench in the off season.

While I was a tad dismayed at the issues with TS and the rumors of Ressler meddling so far this new Front office has made sensible decisions. So Im going to hope for the best and so far Im fine with all the moves they've made.

I wish he would have resigned. Hope we can salvage this year. We have way to much talent to be this bad

I really hate adding arbitrary crap to OTs in sports. Just play until one team has more points within a given timeframe or do sudden death for sports like Soccer and Football. College Football crazy rules, baseball just sticking a player on second base just because, the NFL going away from sudden death OT. Makes no real sense, has no real continuity wIth the rules of the game, somebody just made up some crap and that's about it. Wish we could just go back to simple OT.

I saw Trae try and even hustle a bit on defense. Hes just to small to really make a huge impact on D but he did try last night and actually hustled a bit on D. I think we need a couple of more good bench guys focused on defense but we really need a coach that can create a better defensive scheme for us. This is not working on the defensive side and its not all the players fault. A good scheme and more timely coaching can over come that.

Nate needs to get this crap together, we are not shooting well please adjust to create some easier shots.

This is the most frustrating team I've ever seen

Yea we need a new coach. We got to much talent to get pasted by one of the worst teams in the league.

Yea I hope GSW sucks it up and goes through with it and the NBA rewards them for not being dicks. Portland should be punished not us.

I like our roster especially our top 8 and now after trades our bench should e better and more focus on being ale to back up our often injured starters. I like Nate but I just think it is time to move on and get a younger coach with better idea's on offense and get someone in that can ratchet up our defense. I think with our top 8 and some tweaks to our depth and the right coach we are contenders. Sad we keep treading water in place with what we have now.

We better get a draft pick from the league if this falls through.

Well looks like the new GM is at least trying to make sensible moves to address our needs. We got 3 players that are better then The 2 players leaving and cost us less. These moves sgow strategy and homework being done

Yea, CCs only issue is staying healthy. Hopefull OO can gain a little more size and Bruno can help when CC musses games each year.

Yea our bench has not been good this year, these moves at least improve the bench a bit.

Ben Simmons is a completely broken player that we broke in the playoffs, I would not let him anywhere near this team our chemistry is fragile enough as it is.

Nope We are the most mid team ever in the NBA, 41-41 is pretty much our destiny. Every time we think we have turned the corner we go on a losing streak. We can beat the best team in the NBA and get blown out by the worst team in the NBA in the same week. This team is frustrating and near impossible to enjoy. I hope next year with a new coach and some tweaks we can be a good team again.

Nope we dont need media attention nut jobs on our team

Yea Nate stepping down after the season would be better for all involved, he can stay as an advisor if he wants but we need a younger coach in their prime that can steer this roster into the future.

We need a legit big guy off the bench when Cap misses a month or more every year. OO is good on offense but he does not replace Cap Defense and size. We need one spot for a big center when Cap is injured

As much as it may suck I'd say let Nate coach out the season and see what happens. I do not want to get locked into an interim coach if they get hot at the end of the year and make a playoff run. I'd like us to take our time and find a coach that fits in the off season.

Well here is the thing ASG didn't give a damn about the team and let it float around, at least on the surface it appears Ressler is an owner who gives a damn even if he may be TOO involved. To go from an owner group that is just a nameless face to an actual owner who is trying to win sounds ok, I hope it turns out well but I can't get to mad at an owner trying to get his team a championship.

Well at least they are being open and up front about all this instead of trying to scuttle rumors etc. Also if the main beef was getting DJ or not I'm on Landry's side that he was a huge need and I hope we keep him long term. If TS was really that dead set against getting DJ then I'm kind of not in agreement with him on this and am willing to give this new Front office a shot to see how things go.

This team will never get healthy. We pretty much need two starting teams worth of players to account for all our injuries

Yea think as long as we have CAP we need a big center on the bench. OO is good but he is not that big body we need when CAP is out a dozen or more games a year.

Bogi and Hunter Bogi only because he is often injured and older, and Hunter cause he is always injured and still plays in a hesitant way I questioned resigning Hunter, I think we needed him to have a healthy season before commiting to him, seems he will always miss a dozen or more games a year with injuries.
