Corbin? or Vinny Del Negro

[craig2112]

Ok, I see a lot of guys constanting screaming that Corbin is too rigid with lineups, not going with the hot hand, not sitting Al or Millsap when they are having an off game.

First, when it comes to your best players, you don't yank them just because they are having an off game. You never know when one of them will bust out and make plays, even if they are having an off night. The best players have earned the right to be in the game have a chance to play their way back in.

But consider this tidbit from ESPN tonight about Vinny Del Negro losing the support of the Clippers:

"Vinny has lost the team," one source said. "They don't want to play hard for him."

With the Clippers having lost 11 of their past 18 games to turn this once-promising season into a mess, Del Negro's job security would certainly seem to be in jeopardy. As it is, Del Negro is in the final guaranteed season of his contract. The Clippers hold a team option for next season.

Most of the players, according to sources, believe it's time for a change. They cite the uncertainty of Del Negro's rotation as a major problem.

Hmmm, seems players don't like a coach that keeps changing the rotations.

Something to think about...

Craig, I have been lumped with you a lot but this is a terrible thread. Shame on you and I hope this dies fast.

Yes, coaching in the NBA is actually a hard job. You have to manage personalities, make a game plan, manage substitutions, motivate, etc. People act like it's very simple, but it's not.
