Are we tanking?

[thedoper]

We're tanking

[Lipoli390]

We're tanking

Yes. And that's exactly what this organization should be doing this season.

What a joke. First Teague a few weeks ago and now Wiggins with this ridiculous "illness" that is worse than the plague. May be we should send him to a southern clime to convalesce for the next month or two. That way the rest of the team won't be infected and he can make a full recovery.

While I was not a fan of Thibs' old-school tactics of playing guys into the ground, I feel like Rosas & Co. have taken things too far in the opposite direction. No wonder Gorgui is so surly these days.

Soft!

Yep.

At this point, it's becoming insulting to the fans... especially Lip and others who pay to watch. It's still early... but I don't know why anybody should be excited about the new regime at this point.

I don't think they are necessarily trying to lose, but they aren't going all in to make playoffs. I want Reid, Nowell, KDB to get more minutes to see what we have there. I would cut minutes for Graham, Napier a lot and to a lesser extent, Teague. I think we know what we have with Okogie and Culver for now and so I would like to see them earn their minutes. I would actually like to cut Graham and/or Napier and sign a G-League star, and acquire someone that Golden State must move as they need to convert Bowman and Lee and they don't have cap space to do so (one of Ky Bowman, Damion Lee, GR3, Chriss, Burks will be gone) or see if we can get Bruno Caboclo from Memphis .

I agree. KG4!

Yes, it's ugly to watch. But I'd feel OK continuing to pay the money I pay if I had confidence in the organization successfully executing a long term plan to contend in 2-3 years.

Havent they been 2-3 years away since KG left? No way Towns lasts that long. The environment is completely against us. I know I'm being a downer and I'd be right there with you if I still lived in the cities but I cant see anything getting better without a shift in ownership. The only way to even give this a shot is to consistently be willing to take big risks and to draft well like Toronto. We cant do either and it comes from the conservative approach from the top down.

I don't think they're tanking. I really don't. Q tend to make an observation of this but for a while there, we were kinda blessed with not having a ton of injuries and illnesses. Now we are. The reason why they're not tanking is because I don't think Rosas knows how. This franchise doesn't have to try very hard to be bad.

I don't disagree that they don't have to try hard to be bad, but they are obviously tanking, not by how they are playing on the court but by how conservative they are with guys that are either ill, have a personal issue (e.g. bereavement), or are hurt.
