Saunders is probably doing cartwheels out of that facility.

merged. i win. flip wins. that team is a mess.

 

[jonathanlambert33]

"Flip" lol

2-15...

 

[elcheato]

I thought they were pretty exciting under Flip

 

[SaintFan25]

Not much of a surprise there, hard for a coach to keep his job after a 2-15 start.

Flip is a pretty good coach. Wizards just have no fucking talent lol.

 

[Pugz]

really think about this. who the fuck would want to coach them? seriously. they suck so bad.

 

[RipCity32]

Probably about 75-85% of assistant coaches in the NBA would love the job lol.

 

[Pugz]

im not sure about that really. i mean im sure they want to move up but that team will make any coach look shitty

 

[RipCity32]

Or they could do better than Flip and be considered a decent coach on the rise lol.
Plus a salary increase. I'd do it in a heartbeat if I was an assistant coach.

 

[Pugz]

you totally got away from the main point that the wizards are fucking trash.

 

[RipCity32]

They are lol. But I'm sure the pay increase is good enough for most lol.

Flip Saunders always gets fired in NBA 2K12. Then gets hired 4 days later by the Wizards lol. But yea this team is horrible, and needs to go in a new direction.

Damn this is really going to hurt Love and Rubio's development.

what?

 

[cruzg24]

what?

I was joking around, but I think if the Wolves could get a good coach it would do wonders for the development of the young players on that team. Someone like Stan Van Gundy.

 

[Pugz]

no man lol. wrong team. flip coached the wizards. adelman coaches the wolves.
