“We was starting dudes named Justin Patton” 💀
So does this mean stones the problem
This is just sad but part about Silas is promising. Apparently Stone was forcing him to tank.
It’s wild to me the organization (if what Wall is saying is true) didn’t want him around the team at all during the day. Feels like if Stone couldn’t guarantee Wall any PT the least he could do if he wasn’t going to trade him was let him practice and watch film with the team. The guy is a seasoned vet and multiple time All-Star, he could’ve taught the young guys valuable things.
Defo gives a bad look for Stone’s, but Wall also seems delusional thinking he’s still some good player that contributes to winning, he was a big part of that losing streak that was worse than anything we saw last season even though his losing streak team was atleast around the same level talent wise to that team but with more vets.
We should have definitely kept him around the team and not pushed him out (thats where Stone’s fucked up big), but he wouldn’t have added anything in terms of winning to the team last season if he started and I would rather lose with young players than with vets.
this FO is fucking embarrassing
Why are y’all surprised? Y’all really thought the front office wasn’t pushing for the tank the past 3 years?
After we add another top 3 pick next year and start winning in 2-4 years everyone’s going to be singing a different tune.
Bad look for the front office…John definitely deserved to play more than 10-15 a game
That said he was always ass here so I can see why they wanted him to come off the bench. Acting like he was some model example of winning is hilarious.
This is all anyone needs to see if they have doubts we are tanking on purpose. Silas, the questionable lineups and substitutions late game. The lack of game planning. It’s all planned.
Pretty bad look. Not how you treat vets.
I don’t like how Wall was treated, but I’m so glad he’s gone with how he acted.
There’s never been an organization I’ve worked or consulted for that could make me reduce my level of professionalism or work.
>“I was the best player on the team, and they treat me like this”
Adjusting for GP, Christian Wood was better than Wall that season and no one was sad to see him go.
One sided story
