To think that I attempted to try to defend Frank last year because i thought his process or rewarding merit made sense. I was sooo wrong. I couldnt see this buffonery last year with this crap “process” because the season was short and they didnt have a training camp. All of this is just stupid. Like Talan said, the execution is just downright pathetic. I was all for Frank’s bS then the drummond example came to light. I know we have more than half the season left but we are literally throwing away games left and right because if the coach cannot execute his rotation strategy how would the players execute his game plans on the court?

Ugh. I applaud changing up the rotation, but this execution is just horrible. Dan is spot on by saying one bad decision begets another. If Daye is going to be getting all of the minutes behind prince, why was Middletons D-league stint only 3 games? May as well keep him down there longer.

This continual flawed organizational decision making is clearly systemic. No matter the coach, we still seem to put a poor product on the court. The only thing this superfan can hang his hat on is that Gores’ ownership hasn’t been around long enough to positively influence this organization. I can still hope that is the case.

I’m starting to get the feeling that Jerebko is gonna go the way of Amir Johnso, Carlos Delfino, and Aaron Afflalo sooner or later.

Next let’s try Prince at Center. Why not just play everyone where they are best suited?

This whole situation is mildly nuts. 3 years ago, they drafted 3 small forwards – Daye, Summers, and Jerebko. Summers is long gone. The other two virtually never actually got to play at small forward. JJ did a little his rookie season, and never again. Daye bounced back and forth between SG and power forward.

So now, 3 1/3 games into Daye’s career, he’s finally going to get a shot at playing SF, and he hasn’t even been practicing it. More than a little incredible.
