Re: Where does Denver go from here?

I think they have the talent and Karl is not helping with the team's mindset.

For anybody not wanting to get rid of Karl, are you kidding me? What offensive sets does Denver run? How is their defense? He's a terrible, terrible X and O coach and especially so with this team.

Everyone makes this roster out to be "uncoachable" but I think that's bull****. I think Karl just suggests things for them to do while they go out there and just make their offensive sets up all day. A lot of the time I'll see bad jumpshots fired by.. well, anybody, and they just settle with that kind of offense. Damn, I mean run Carmelo or AI off some off-the-ball screens or something. Putting these guys into a Princeton or UCLA offense with a lot of ball movement could and possibly would make them the most efficient offensive team in the league.

Defensively, they have the skillset, they just absolutely suck on defensive rotations. And I mean really suck. Watching them play a team with offensive structure is murder (AKA, Lakers, Spurs, Jazz, etc).

Get Karl out of there and bring somebody in with the package to get these guys to play actual basketball, not streetball. Get Carmelo some off-the-ball screens or let Camby/Martin/Nene work in the post. It's a shame what this basketball team has turned into.
