At this point I'm torn between wanting to do well down the stretch and wanting to play like garbage so that Whitman finally gets fired.

He is pretty un-clutch to end games, although Whitman always puts him in a bad position to handle the ball until the final second and shoot contested shots whenever it's the end of a game because he doesn't know how to design a play.

A real coach like Pop would have his boys moving the ball around and trying to create an open shot. Whitman just gives it to Wall and has him dribble forever and chuck a long 2 or 3. Just stupid.

At this point I just want whatever needs to happen to get Whitman fired and bring in a real coach. Grunfeld getting fired would be even better, but I'm trying to be realistic.

I don't understand why he's still the gm. He's been drafting busts outside of Wall/Beal. Hasn't really aquired any real talent on the roster besides Gortat.
Nene would be good off the bench, but we need a better starting PF and it's not Humphries. He hasn't made any moves to improve the talent on the roster in a long time. I feel like Sessions is a downgrade from Andre Miller.

I dont know why Whittman loves Butler so much. He started the season off hot, but has cooled down since. He shouldn't be getting more minutes than Porter. The bench is terrible atm. Not only bad offensively, but bad on defense and rebounding.

They actually kept it close vs GS until like the final couple minutes. I was surprised.

Agreed. wittman deserves some credit for the team's transition from the post arenas years, but I dont think he's the coach the team needs to take the next step. Wittman does not know how to use his assets. Porter should be starting. Beal is being used incorrectly with his barrage of long twos. Wall is being used incorrectly with his last second shots at end of games. similar to wittman, grunfeld does not know wtf he's doing.
