With keen insights like that, I wonder if I should start tuning into his podcast.


He also said CJ Stroud was going to be a bust, Mac Jones was better than Tua, Scoot is a guaranteed star and the Harden trade was a bust immediately. These are just a few of the top of my head. He may be right about the Bucks but that is about the only take he’s gotten right this year.

Can someone explain to me, what the hell was going on with all the Pistons grabbing Giannis out of the air? And how it's not unsportsmanlike with no play on the ball whatsoever?

Clearly this team needs a shakeup. The roster got old. I’m open to anything outside of trading Giannis

\One of the easiest question I've seen on this board. Answer: Step up. We go from 22nd in defense to 16th.

Can Prunty not give ag any advice on how to improve the defense? Like what’s his point? Just a yes man?

He's not getting fired, but if he were to get hit by a bus, I think I'd go with Patrick Mutombo over Prunty. He seems like a pretty smart guy.
Go Bus. Oh I mean Bucks. :)

I’m sure Stotts gave advice.

42 games into the season and just wondering how long we can keep playing the same way over and over again until something changes? A team shouldn't need 50 free throws and close to 80 minutes from two superstars to scrape by one of the worst nba teams ever.

Like any assistant, his suggestions have to fall within the framework of what the coach wants to do.

If Prunty told Griffin that he his entire premise of having guys guard way out on the perimeter is ridiculous, he wouldn't survive.

There are so many basic flaws in what griffin is trying to accomplish on defense, especially with the perimeter players he has, that a good assistant can only help on the margins.

AG didn't seem to like suggestions from Stotts.

So not only is ag a horrible head coach but he’s extremely egotistical as well. That’s a good combination

The more I watch of Grief, Prunty might actually be a step up, possibly 2 steps up.

Prunty is far better. He can actually be considered a coach.

Either get rid of Grief or get players that can actually play defense the way he wants

The old part isn't really the bad part. Not having a single perimeter defender is fixable.

Middelton and Pat for Jeremy Grant and Thybulle? Like how crazy are we getting

Like how much of it is coach and scheme and how much is lack of talent on Defense and what players can moved to fix that?
