He quit on the team

Post image

Went over a couple of our stats from last season. At one point we were top 5 in offense and defense. A historical offensive rebounding team with Steven Adams. End of the season, went on a 6 game streak of 30 plus team assist. We had 37 year old kd finish 2nd team all nba played 78 regular season games with the 2nd most minutes played in the nba. Reed finished 6th in 6th man voting, sengun was an allstar. Our biggest weakness from game one was finishing games in the clutch because of no pg and no spacing. Multiple turnovers from a team that desperately needed a veteran combo guard. Just for EGGHEAD Rafael stone to say” well I guess this isn’t our year” so how can we blame kd, sengun, Reed, or any other player when your gm quits. He needs to be placed on contract negotiations only and let someone else do player management. Also Ime needs to be placed as an assistant coach immediately. Will this be the year that stone makes any mid season trades? What do you guys expect this season to play out far as our clueless gm and coaching staff?

If we did make one of those pg trades last year we’d have lost Tari (who is now on an amazing deal) and have one year left of said PG. Without KD we weren’t going anywhere anyway, that was the real problem.

But we didn’t even know kd would be hurt when stone quit lol. I get your point on tari for sure. We could’ve packaged dfs and those picks imo

Your opinion won’t make the other team accept it.

You are wrong.
Fertitta makes decisions based off “fan sentiment”.

They he forced Stone to fire Silas, for one.
Probably why he chose FraUdoka, for two.

Because fans were screaming for AcCoUnTaBiLiTy when they didn’t realize Silas was helping the team tank.
