    Default Tanking the rest of the season

    I never thought i would say it . But deep down right now im thinking hell why not. Im thinking the coaching has gone to hell. The hustle we used to pride our self on is gone. Im just thinking if no one else gives a damn why not tank the rest of the season and go for that golden draft pick.
    I found myself thinking last night in the game we would just be better off to lose. Never thought i would think that way.
    I say devolop Dudley, and Davidson , Carroll
    If we win ok ,if we lose the season has all ready went shit any way.
    Would like to know if any one else feels that way because im not a fan of tanking.

    Well I think the way management is behind V that they may already be doing that and thats why V is still here....But I could be wrong too....

    Landing Beasley, DJ or Rose would make me forgot about this subpar ass season.

    With Wallace out, JRich having only one eye now, and most of all with Sam Vincent as head Coach, I don't think we need to actively DO anything to achieve losses. Tanking is a sad, sad, and pathetic thing for professional athletes to be doing. So, we'd better not be trying to tank this season, because it's still not a guarantee that we get the pick we want. However, it could be the reason that management hasn't canned V yet. Let him solidify his "I royally f'd this up" status as a coach, so there's no question why we should fire him over the summer.

    If we were to get beasley and fire FHB then we will be EXPECTED to make the playoffs! I mean can you imagine this lineup:

    PG-Felton(If he is still Here)
    SG-Richardson
    SF-Wallace
    PF-Beasley
    C-Okafor

    WOW!!! :O

    The firing is the key aspect. Vincent could still screw it up, even with that line-up.

    and we need a full health wallace. Plus who knows someone jeff might work his way into the lineup. He seems to do that.

    Also... starting lineups only are so much. I think we need a better point gaurd. Felts at backup would be solid. Nazr, Jermar, and Carroll, along with Duds could be a very strong bench. We really arent that bad. What is wrong with SV? seriously. I think Beasly+one solid sixth man/ maybe felts and a good pg and we have a pretty good team

    3 key pieces. I would trade felts for another pick and go for a pg after beasly (granted we have to get the number 1 pick... about that....).

    I dont think its the players tanking, I think its the line ups and everything else that FHB is calling and I think he may doing it on purpose because if you watch him on the side lines he just sits there like he dont have a worry in the world.....

    Yeah, our players look too frustrated to be tanking most of the time. Plus they have that character flaw known as "integrity."
