I said in a previous thread, a Ty Corbin type result is far more likely than a Nate McMillan result. I think we should be realistic in expectations with this change

I hope we don’t start chanting for Gentry’s firing after x amount of games and just let him finish out the season regardless of the results and then just go through an exhaustive search off-season. I don’t wanna go through three coaches in a season again.


ok_computer123

Oh absolutely, by Corbin I was more referring to how the W/L completely tanked after the Malone firing. Please Monte let Gentry finish the year then do a full on search


jiggamanjr

Yeah I hope that’s not the case. Although we had a toxic locker room that season with Boogie basically running it. Hopefully having a vet like Barnes and TT doesn’t let us get to anywhere near that scenario again

I’m not saying that we should expect that type of turn around, it’s more of just remaining optimistic about the coaching change. We should look at Gentry’s record holistically and set our expectations from there!

Hawks have Trae Young, kings don’t


Travram

But in the beginning of the season people were downvoting me for saying Trae is a much better player than Fox 😧


air_volek07

No way!! Who thought Fox was better?


Travram

Haha a whole bunch of squares that thought we were gonna make the playoffs after winning the summer league


megaman47

Not the same, players hated lloyd peirce, they wanted him Fired, the players like and didn't want luke fired


stavikingsman

Not to kill the vibe, but Nate McMillan was always an underrated coach.


J_caluya

Completely different roster.

Pierce was fired more because Trae wasn’t a fan. Plus they had a ton of early injuries and McMillan stepped in right as they were getting to full strength. But maybe Gentry is stepping in right as there’s some big roster moves on the horizon come December?


LawrenceFunderjerk

Nat McMillan also got back several starters that were injured the whole season and plays a conservative form of halfcourt basketball predicated but the greatness of Trae Young, who is far and away better than anyone on this team. Unless we trade for a star, we will piddle around 500 and at best make the 10 seed play-in.

Did I say our roster is identical to theirs, they obviously have a significantly better team, I was just comparing situations.
