Originally posted by MasterBlaster:That's part of it GollittaCamper. Anyone can pick ok players that with the right system/coaching and given enough time to develop can eventually play decently. The problem with Baalke is that we had way too many projects like that and he sucked at choosing impact players to help now. And what made Baalke suck even worst, is that he didn't draft players that actually FIT the Head Coaches' scheme and style of play. He was too arrogant to get who THEY truly needed and just did his own thing.Originally posted by GolittaCamper:Originally posted by English:Originally posted by GolittaCamper:This thread exists as an experiment, the idea being as the "Baallkie" levels fall, the team improves. We must keep this thread until the last Baaaallkie player is gone, at some point we will see the correlation between success, and Baaaalkie.
Um, that means Garnett and Buckner.
We can chalk that up to Bind Squirrel v. Nut!
If Baalke had any honor, he would give half his salary back for all those years of sucking.
The orther thing about him that was frustrating, was the way he let his bad picks hang around, rather than admit he missed on a pick.
Every GM misses, some more than others, but a good one moves on quickly
