I just can't take this team seriously at all after this and the 76ers loss. I guess it probably shouldn't have taken me this long... :white flag:

Yea, and as the coach in the midlle of the series...no way he should say that. That said, I do think they are just better than us. They're a deeper team. I have no faith in guys like Marvin or Maurice Evans and Mike Bibby was such a liability on D that he was MIA in the 2nd. Woody doesn't play Teague unless it's garbage time, so that leaves us with JJ, Jamal, Josh, Al to contend with Dwight, Jameer, Vince, Lewis, Paetrus and their role players (Gortat, Redick, Williams) that are a little better than our role players.

What happened to their coach after that series? :idea:

He's gone! This sealed it...no way Sund brings him back after squeaking by Milwaukee and this.

We choked. Orlando made a run and we just fell apart on both ends of the floor. Missed easy shots, poor shot selection instead of sticking with what was working in the 1st. I don't think Orlando really made any major adjustments...we just fell apart which leads me to believe that Orlando is more in our head than I thought they were.

You gotta give him some credit, as much as I bashed him he made some adjustments on D. I'm just mad it took that loss in game 5 for it to happen.

No, this team has pretty much shown us what they're made of all season with the bad perimeter defense, pick-up style offense, and inability to win on the road against "inferior" teams.

A rookie head coach? I'll pass. I'd go Avery out of the 3, but I think there might be better options that are assistants on teams right now.

I really would like to see these superstars that guys are claiming could be in the situation Joe is in right now and lead this team to a championship. All the "stars" that I expect people would name (Kobe, Wade, etc.) struggle(d) when they didn't have the right coaches and personnel in place. Put Kobe on this team with these terrible "offensive sets" and a D that can't stop anyone and we're in the same position. JJ isn't the problem here.

Embarrassing...

I agree, and that's been my beef with him most of the season.

I can't wait for him to "test" the FA market...

Sadly, I think you're right.

I sure hope so.
