    Fire Coach Woodson Thread

    Again context. We hired Woodson under the context he knew how to coach and knows more than most on the topic. AkA "look he coached in the NBA" . If it's a younger coach then yeah you go through some bump and bruises that come naturally through growth. You're just biased and stuck to a narrative. Pinky swear if Woodson does well I'll be the first one singing praise to him.

    Fire Coach Woodson Thread

    You keep ignoring proper context. Woodson is 68 and supposed to already be an experienced coach. Horrible comparison.

    I think each of us need to draw our line. Write down what constitutes a successful season with this roster and let's let the chips fall where they fall. I think this is a sweet sixteen team and competing in a close to go into the elite eight.

    Congrats guys. Well played series. Hope you beat the Celtics.

    This is a little misleading. A journeyman as a NBA player is not the same as journeyman as a head coach or coach.

    Kentucky has had how many top 5 classes in a row? If these Hoosiers make it to the Elite Eight (I think it's that type of roster) then yeah the coaching stepped up. Talent can only take you so far. I honestly think we'll find out in our first ranked competitive game. If there's better perimeter defense then we're going places. I hope Coach listens to criticism and adjusts.

    I'm also a Hoosier my friend. undergrad and one grad degree. If you knew them how I know them, oh my god you'd fall so in love. All they do is talk about ball. All gym rats and instead of complaining they take responsibility. Good kids who don't get into trouble or don't put things fashion ( ben Simmons) in front of playing ball. Next year they very well may win it all because last year we discovered the style and this year we put some good pieces that fit our system and we'll be able to add others who better fit it. OG opened up a lot of things for us in terms of how we want to move forward. This series though, I think there's a very good chance the Pacers will win because 76ers took out two of our guys (one intentional the other on court fairness). I just don't think we have enough to finish the job.

    I think from a Knicks perspective the only way we beat you is if we take it in 5. We just don’t have the depth to play like this for the whole series. Bogey got injured in the 76ers series and Randal is our for the season. Also Mitchel Robinson is not the type of big that is good for this type of series.

    @Demo I like the way you analyze the game. I think you might like his videos. Not his voice but how he dissects defense. He's a tad bit angry when he explains bad defense though lol.

    Would you like other people other jewish people to talk about it? Can you give me the parameters of what passes your character test? Believe me when I say there are a ton. You know, a lot of people would also think what a lot of what this board thinks would be absurd also. I can understand what you guys are talking about and through that it's trying to come from a good place. In the end I know you guys are all trying to come from a good place. I don't care if you treat me like &^% if you have good information that opens my mind I'll be happy to take it in. I'm proud to say that I have been wrong in the past and humbly adapted. Even when the person who was right was disrespectful and put definitive labels on me. For those who are curious I implore you to dig a little deeper. Get the whole picture and yes in whole picture will reveal bad stuff on both sides. I'm not giving you specifics on purpose because I want you guys to do the research so you find out on your own. Don't look at from a side perspective.

    To your delight or sadness, I'm willing to no longer talk about this. I got a lot of work to do before Monday hits. If we just fired Woodson I would have probably not engaged because I'd be focusing on my Knicks and Mets. Let's just blame Woodson.

    Again not trying to cherry pick but you gotta look at so called attachments were conditioned with those. Look up what Finkelstein says about this. Guys you do know that there's a good segment from Israel citizens who are protesting also right? I'm not cherry picking I'm just looking at the entire scope of it. Believe me when I say this I never TRY to pick sides. If the roles were reversed I'd be calling out the Palestinians. The balance is , as of now, completely one sided ( resources , military positioning , prisoners, mainstream media ).

    Again just google the land distribution from 1953-2024. Yes a line was established and with written word what the % of land was to be distributed. Google the map distribution and then it will raise more questions for you. You gotta go into the history because you can't just pick a side and presume it's justified here or there. There are big layers to this thing and there's a lot details I see that most of this board is not privy to. Unless you dig deeper.

    Dude you'd be surprised how much I agree with you and at times I don't. To give you context so called "liberals" call me maga. and so called conservatives call me a s&^t lib. My mom worked for the government and I moved all around the country and world. There are benefits and harm to that. One benefit was that I never really got attached to any group of people to believe any certain type of way. Don't generalize people man. We never move forward that way. Just know though that even though you might hate me (don't think you do just saying) I would be right there to help you out if I'm able to if you were in trouble. I will also add that if you have good information, I don't care if you think I'm this or that, I'll take the information and try to be as fair as I can and try to see it through your perspective.

    dig deeper or not. You were led to believe the river to the sea comments were just established but that's been a phrase for a long time. Google how the territories have changed from 1953 to now and you'll realize why that phrase was established. Genocide. I don't say this lightly at all because I understand the seriousness of that word. Israel (the government) is committing genocide. Before you think this started know that Palestine (they would never it admit because of pride) is an open air concentration camp. All you have to do is look at the International trial that took place and look at the transcript. They detail point by point how it meets that standard but here are a few quick bullet points. 1. Palestine is a population of 50%kids and 20% women----if you look at the horrific details you'll understand why that is. 2. Israel controls Palestines water, electricity and food distribution. 3. no Palestinian (minus designated politicians) is allowed to leave Palestine without the consent of BOTH the Israeli and Egyptian government. These are very hard truths to accept because it in a way you might feel this is a personal attack on your ability to process the bigger scope. But know I also had to be wrong to eventually see the whole picture (that get's bigger and bigger and I constantly shift degrees. There are no absolutes). Look deeper or not. That's up to you.
