That's not going to do anything to improve the team in the short or long-term. No desperation moves, but IMO the best course is to let Brad steer things until Xmas and then re-assess.

The fact that they played very inconsistent after the All Star break that year, got destroyed in the playoffs, continued to play inconsistent, folded in all the big games since, etc. We need to stop fooling ourselves that this team is anything but a bubble team at best. If that's the goal we're in a very sad place if we're gonna continue to use picks in an attempt to maybe grab the 8th seed. I can't believe people are fine with this constant mediocrity from this organization. Tear it down and build it back up properly before you're forced to do it in a few years down the road anyways.

That entire year they had a 0.586 pt% against the PAC division (the weakest in the league), which works out to a 96 pt pace.
14/31 games post All-star were divisional; a higher proportion than the rest of the season. We got 15 pts in those 14 games; vs. 19pts in the 15 Pacific games pre-ASB (not a huge difference).
We milked pts out of division, but weren't great against a lot of bad teams who saw us enough to game plan specifically.
