possibly. you could be entirely accurate. but Im not willing to waste a possible awesome 3rd option based on coach Pringles opinion. That guy has no respect from me. Brown was a better coach. And Brown sucks to. But in comparison to Dantonio he was a HOFer. Atleast he tried.....lolCome on now. I know you was around for the Dallas series under PJ, I know you was here when he sucked under Mike Brown, and I know you're here when he sucks under D'Antoni.
That's 3 different coaches he has sucked under. It's not the system(s) he plays in, it's not the players he plays with, it's not the position he plays, it's not how much mileage he has, or any other bull[expletive] excuse. The reason Pau Gasol sucks falls squarely on his shoulders and his shoulders alone.
Thats all I'm saying. If we get a coach in with direction and discipline it may be whats necessary to "revive" Pau. And if that coach wants Pau out then I'm on board. But I'm sorry windu....I cant takle anything Dantonius does or says serious in the prism of actual NBA coach knowledge.

I said
He's a cancer to the team. Having him gone from LA AUTOMATICALLY improves the team. We won't miss his poor production and matador defense.
Thats an assumption. You sure talk like trading Pau is gonna improve the team dramatically, when clearly there are bigger issues with this team. Other than KB, you fail to see that not one player on this team has met expectations. Everyone was raving how we are gonna start winning when Nash comes back, when Dwights back feels better, and yet we are still at square one. One player is not gonna make improvements to the team.

You lose a soft player
You don't have to pay 20 mil for trash
You lose a no defense player
You lose a mentally fragile player
You lose a zero-accountability player
win-win
I'm gonna start assuming some of you are only remembering what you want to remember. Pau Gasol's ineffectiveness (my nicest word for him) has been going on for a LONG time. This is not something new where you can say "oh oh what about kobe...what about DH" blah blah blah.
ALL of you Pau Gasol apologists were [expletive]ing SILENT when he failed in the playoffs repeatedly.
"Everyone" was not raving about Nash coming back; not those of us who realized the idiocy in hiring Mike D'Antoni and retaining Pau Gasol.

Mike D'Antoni is GARBAGE.

If we somehow land Dwight Howard AND Nash (which is one of the biggest reaches I've posted, don't think that will happen), then yeah...I have no problem with it, because Howard won't allow anyone to take Nash off the dribble 30+ minutes a game.
You should reach more often

Would it be considered a slap in the face to send him to the D-League like what Dallas did with Odom?
yeh, a slap in the face to the d-league

You will stay with MDA, to have run and fun...
We need new coach, not new players.

Trade Pau? Hmm, then trade Howard too, and Nash, Jamison, Meeks, Ebanks, Morris, Duhon...

A real coach would figure out how to get the talent that the team has to work to the best of its ability, rather than have to plug players in that fit his system (which is inherently flawed)

We need to stop the bleeding, have D'Antoni resign, and get Bickerstaff to run a double post offense. We sign/trade for a shooter and athletic wing, we could still make a run.
Despite his declining athleticism, Pau would still start on any other team in the NBA. He also makes his teammates BETTER. Dwight will play better with Pau in the low post feeding him easy dunks. He still averaged 15.0 PPG, 9.2 RPG, 3.6 APG. under Bickerstaff earlier this season.
