    Hey Jake! Long time listener and supporter, appreciate all the content over the years. I appreciate your acceptance of the situation and trying to focus on positives, I guess I just disagree slightly that we have to do so as quickly. I know you don't disagree that there can be a lot of complaints surrounding ownership and the organization even if they are not the worst in the NBA. You have referenced before that people with the organization watch your podcast and I feel like already shifting to positives so quickly in a way let's them off the hook. This is just coming from a fan who wants more accountability across the whole organization and obviously does not believe there is enough. Acceptance is important and helpful, I just think I would have loved a week of casts that held their feet more to the fire with how broken the process is and continues to be. Results do matter but if the process is broken then good results will be the exception not the rule.

    Ownership doesnt want to win at the highest they just want to be not the worst. It doesnt matter what he does. Until changes are made at the very top this is the product we will continue to get. Gayle only cares about her horses and hats 😂

    If Joe comes in and cleans house…will he get the Nico Harrison treatment? What if it's Benson pulling the strings.. gonna be interesting to see what they do to improve or reset

  9. @TribeOfJudah_12

    Glad we fired general manager David Griffin from our new Orleans pelicans team this week and hired new Orleans born Joe Dumas he is from Louisiana to fellas

  11. @clintonrodriguez8271

    By dumars not coming out and letting it be known that ZION IS OUR BEST PLAYER AND CLEARING THE AIR AND SAY THAT ZION IS NOT GOING ANYWHERE HE IS TRASH JAKE YOU ARE TRIPPING ALWAYS HATING ON ZZE BUT WHEN HE LEAVES WE WILL NEVER REPLACE HIM

  15. @avistolliver2921

    My biggest problem with WG is his poor substitution pattern and use of TOs. He will stick to his preprescribed rotation, and pull a hot player and lose a lead before bring them back. Especially in the 4th quarter.

    Build a new area she being cheap people will kno yur serious if yu do that… Smoothie king what can yu do extra there this mean really tearing sh*t down n really rebuilding the inside don’t add stuff really do the work.. I swear the rich get rich n the poor get poor she penny pinching

  25. @bradleynelson8754

    By all the rumours we obviously won’t but we should just go all out using the principle you suggested. Target a couple of players who teams can’t afford, and specifically all out on spacing bigs to fit Zion. Even if it goes to shit and you have to trade Zion (I hope not) spacing bigs are still super useful

    Porzingis and Naz at the 4 and 5 with Zion at the 1 👀
    Zion Trey Herb Naz KP is BIG

    Good comments – I am now not quite of bothered if they keep WG for one more year. If he gets better, it will show, and if he doesn't, it will be easier for JD to fire him and get his guy later. I certainly hope that Z is given the opportunity to lead a healthy group of players – with growth in younger players along with a trade or two, they can succeed more than they have in the past.

    I respect trying to find a positive perspective, especailly with all the negativity around ther hire, even if I'm not sold. To be honest, it's not the Joe Dumars hire I'm pissed at. It's keeping Wille Green, and the hypocrisy around them wanting to trade Zion for off-court stuff, when the same ownership went hard to sign Deshaun Watson.
