white men can't jump wrote: View PostNope. Mostly same offence, different minute allocation to get Pierce more time at PF for more shooters....you know why? Because it was painfully obvious we couldn't stop the playbook they used all year. Why wouldn't you get more shooters when we can't defend for crap? Not to mention Nene was a non-factor for most of the series, and their bench bigs suck. But still, it was primarily Wall making plays and guys being open for shots. Having PP spotting up at the 3 instead of Nene spotting up at 15+ feet is not exactly a difference of night and day. It's not like Whittman made some brilliant tactical adjustment that totally changed the way they played."Both teams played hard my man" - Sheed

It still amazes me that casey didn't try to change his scheme at all with a month or 2 left in the season when it was apparent things had fallen apart. I had people here telling me "its too late to change what was drilled in all season" but zach lowe seems to agree with me, better to try and adjust on the fly and fail then stick with what's guaranteed to fail.
Casey is either too dumb or too stubborn to admit his genius schemes are easily exploitable in todays nba with the athleticism and stretch shooting. It only worked to beat miami because they had shitty pgs, wade didn't shoot 3s and bosh wasn't a stretch 4 yet at the time.9 time first team all-RR, First Ballot Hall of Forum

Unless the first choice is a currently employed coach rumoured to be available soon.
Masai must see his short comings. In any case I will not watch another game with him as coach. It's pointless. I would be shocked if Masai doesnt fire him. Would be a very risky move wrt fan support, corporate sponsorship, the dressing room, possible free agents (maybe good for chuckers in a contract year) and lastly his job.
