Ya let's blame thibs for tying to win games

Sarcasm! But Thibs was a wrecking ball on the Franchise, you can't deny that.

Haha. Sorry hard to read sarcasm on this board. And we disagree on the thibs thing. No reason for both of us to ruin another thread. Haha

I didn't like Thibs the coach, but I absolutely hated the job he did as a GM. In a way, I hate him more than Kahn because Kahn had nothing to begin with but made lots of dumb moves, but before Thibs took over there was a lot of buzz that this team was poised to make a run at multiple titles once the Warrior Dynasty ended. Thibs is the Wrecking Ball. I wonder how we would have done with Buddy Hield and then Jonathan Isaac (we just had to move up one spot and Lavine was more than enough) or Markannen and keeping Ricky over Teague/Okogie.

Here's another team that seems to just have an endless supply of young, solid wings and guards. No stars among them, but just super, super deep. And seemingly every year, they find yet another one. It's incredible how easy some of these franchises make it look while we toil for years and years just to draft one or two competent wings, lottery or not.

It's called culture

It's called smart drafting and player acquisitions. Drafting Jokic in the 2nd round, Beasley at #19, Monte at #51 and Porter Jr. (a top 5 talent) at #14. Acquiring Barton in a trade as I recall. And their head coach has implemented a style that fits the personnel. This culture thing is a buzz word. It's about talent and smart coaching - smart drafting/players personnel decisions and intelligent coaching tailored to the personnel.

Yep, they've become a great organization. Credit to them. Where they drafted Jokic and Morris and taking a smart gamble on porter. Just jealous of them

I will say they did trade Donavan Mitchell for Trey Lyles. So they also make mistakes.

I'm jealous of every NBA team

Once again we'll never agree on the thibs thing. What is fine. I will never blame thibs adding an All NBA player. I know you like Rubio/ lavine/ Wiggins/markannan/ towns core. Still think that is a none playoff roster just because how bad defensively the wolves would be.

In the end we disagree on it. What's all good
