Everything Nick Nurse

[The Great One]

This is pure damage control and and Masai self preservation.
The fans were getting antsy, no playoff revenue, no clear path to making this team better.

So you fire Nurse, bring in Udoka and run it basically back. If they don't finish 6th to higher and show well in the playoffs, Bobby is next to go. Let's see if Masai can start doing his job again. If nothing else, we should have a straight line to all the mega talent coming out of Africa.

Ba Damnnnnn!!!!!

They could run it back, not the only possible outcome, especially after what happened in 2018. Masai fires Casey, Lebron leaves to go West. Masai had all the reason to keep DeMar and run it back and say "Lebron left, East is open". Instead he traded for Kawhi and the rest is history.

Masaai says "culture" everybody drink!

[Kagemusha]

I mean firing a COTY is one thing.
But a champion coach?
That takes balls.

Let's see how he deals with the Fred situation next.

They are going to run it back. They're going to put everything on Nurse. I've seen this story before.

Yikes

He said culture vs. development had some friction

Thats Scottie vs. VanVleet

what else could that be

[G____Deane]

At first this is encouraging and the least corporate-speak of anything he's said
"I think changes are going to be made on all fronts,"

but then he throws out this
"But we believe in the players we have. Whether it's tweaks or major changes, we're going to look at everything."

I'm betting on tweaks

tweak….letting go of VanVleet lol.

Scottie’s life would be much easier

its a no doubter

[G____Deane]

Yak back 99% chance
FVV back 90%
GTJr back 60%

Nurse back 0%
Webster fired in 12 months 80%
Another year of mediocrity incoming 100%

Masai mentions selfishness again.
"We like continuity here"
-Fred is back

He just fired his coach, so..
Go all in, Masai!

[G____Deane]

What do you want in a new Coach?
"quality of a person"

I guess he's out

It was a half hearted commitment….he however said about the importance of VanVleet and Siakam fit with the new coach’s system

Yet he elaborated more of Scottie’s development

Figuring out the roster, who fits and who doesn’t fit

This would be more on Bobby now.
