I would submit to you that just like Sam Mitchell he will never get another head coaching job in the NBA once he is ultimately terminated in TO.

Josh Lewenberg brought that up in February (http://www.tsn.ca/talent/raptors-get...riors-1.218337). And that was their offence. Their defence was bottom third and got abused just as badly systemically. There is always responsibility on the players to execute and they'll bear part of the blame, but I think it was pretty easy to see that the Raptors system/tactics got abused at both ends of the floor. The coaches didn't adjust tactically (I'm not counting random insertions of JJ/PP/TH into the starting lineup for unpredictable spurts). They just kept trying to do the same thing harder. Pound the Rock etc.
For me, that part of this season's failure is on the coaching staff."We're playing in a building." -- Kawhi Leonard

Also spotted in January re: teams figuring out Toronto:
"That last Clippers play is indicative of another scary trend: Teams are getting smarter about attacking Toronto’s defense. That play is designed to manipulate Toronto’s defense exactly as it does and to produce that easy look for Barnes. More teams are clearing one side of the floor for simple two-man actions like this Jimmy Butler/Noah pick-and-roll, knowing Toronto will guide them toward the pick and surrender the middle. Once Butler gets around the pick, he and Noah are effectively working a 2-on-1 against Valanciunas. Since Chicago has cleared away its three other players, there is no natural help defender; any help must come from shooters in Butler’s direct line of sight."

For people who think coaching hardly matters, this is exactly where it does matter. Forget cliches about effort and selflessness and hot shooting, people have been pointing out systems problems with this team for months and they were never addressed."We're playing in a building." -- Kawhi Leonard

Others championship teams did it before therfore we should do similar things. Instead of trading away key pieces for garbage why not bring other better players in to compliment themAbbas wrote:

Go to games and cheer for your team and go home and be happy. Doesn't matter if they won 15 games, 40 games, or 60 games. Just accept it and move on. Very zen, not very much fun@Chr1st1anL
