Yeah I don't get it. Dude seemed like a good coach. Huge overreaction.
Wonder if he'd still have a job if HB doesn't bank that 3 lol

Damn son. If anything I thought he should get an extension after having them play the Spurs so hard in the playoffs last year lol
By Kabro Go To Postfuck the knicks, fam.You guys are assholes. Way to be insular.
By reilo Go To PostwowHe benched Marc for the whole 4th Quarter i believe.
Didn't Gasol have a little bit of a rant after their last loss? Seems to have contributed to it.
Gasol took it personally.
Sill, surprised, Fizdale seemed like a good coach following the head offices direction of playing faster and up tempo.
By Moris Go To PostI woulda dealt Mike and Marc, and extended Fizdale, but thats me.They're facing a rebuild soon, for sure.
Any team can have Okafor for a 2nd rounder... and they aren't asking. Yikes. I mean, you can stick him in the G-League to learn how to play D and give a fuck about rebounding, if he learns one of those he could be a ok starting C/PF in the league.

Vucevic comes to mind.

And if he shows any upside, the team that dealt for him can't sign him.
Philly has no leverage. There's no way they're getting a pick for him.
Edit: To explain
According ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski, the Sixers' asking price for Okafor has dropped from two first-round picks all the way down to a single second-rounder, yet the team still has been unable to find a deal. Wojnarowski also reports that more than half of the NBA teams would be willing to take on Okafor as a long-term project, but prefer to wait until free agency rather than giving up an asset to get him.
A major deterrent comes from the Sixers declining Okafor's $6.2 million fourth-year option. Now if he is traded and performs well for his new team, the rules dictate that his new team can't offer him more than $6.2 million to re-sign him. That would allow another team to swoop in and pay him more, making the acquisition of Okafor a risky proposition.
Yes the rules are a detriment, but that's why you stick his ass in the G-League for the year. I doubt a team is going to go ga-ga over G-League stats... I doubt he makes it to FA.
By reilo Go To PostFizdale or Okafor?
By Mariosalic Go To Posti would argue that either LeBron or KD killed basketball far more than Philly ever could.lol yeah the poor NBA suffered because of those two huge mega stars...
Not sure a coach is going to fix Mempis' issues, let alone professional interim coach JB Bickerstaff
I would too. Has to be better than Zaza
By Doomsayer Go To PostI'd take a shot on Jah for a second round pick.
I would too. Has to be better than Zaza
By domino Go To Postsexton is the truth. kid got the it factor.He's got the athleticism and aggression/motor of westbrook, and the clutchness of the black mamba.
By pilonv1 Go To PostNot sure a coach is going to fix Mempis' issues, let alone professional interim coach JB BickerstaffIf Dray/Kerr can't fix him no one can... except Pop. Then again GS has Bell, Damian Jones, and Looney.

I doubt a team is going to go ga-ga over G-League stats… I doubt he makes it to FA.No doubt that Philly mishandled his team option but they never had much leverage to begin with... yeah any team would throw a 2nd rounder at Philly to get him on the floor if they could sign him but that's hardly a win for Philly
WTF is wrong with the Grizz? Dude was doing a good job of modernizing their system, had a respectable showing in the playoffs despite injuries, and they fire him 15 games into year 2. Because Gasol threw a tantrum? I hope Fiz can work back up to getting another chance.
By Kabro Go To Postfuck the knicks, fam.lol
By pkaz01 Go To PostCan anyone summarize what Gasol said? What was his problem with Fiz?
"If they don't play me they don't value me waaaaaaaaa." After being benched in the 4th. Something just about everyone other than Lebron has had to deal with at one time or another.
By blackace Go To Postright?
Right now I’d take Doncic over Bamba. Need to see more of Sexton and Bridges before I re order the top 5
By TTG Go To Post"If they don't play me they don't value me waaaaaaaaa." After being benched in the 4th. Something just about everyone other than Lebron has had to deal with at one time or another.That’s crazy, seems like a quick decision by their FO
By HasphatsAnts Go To PostRight now I’d take Doncic over Bamba. Need to see more of Sexton and Bridges before I re order the top 5talking out of my ass right now...but who was the last euro wing/guard prospect to actually make it? I am still shook from Exum and Mario.
By knux-future Go To Posttalking out of my ass right now…but who was the last euro wing/guard prospect to actually make it? I am still shook from Exum and Mario.Never Google is pretty decent.
By Kibner Go To PostNever Google is pretty decent.yeah but he was also taken at 20.
Porzingis will play tonight, Noah active for the first time and will play with Kanter out. Will be interesting to see how he fits on the 2nd unit.
Fisdale is the next Bobcats coach and don't even know it yet

Giannis!
I get it tho 😏
By DY_nasty Go To Post"interesting"The key word.
By reilo Go To PostTalented big man with terrible defense get playing time all the time, b.Less and Less on good teams.
Vucevic comes to mind.
Orlando's Vucevic and Toronto's Valancuiunas are examples of offensively based bigs, that are bad --> terrible on defense and They're a big part of holding their teams back.
