I think he might have earned YOUR trust. It will take more than one game to make up people's minds. Just because someone picks up a piantbrush and slaps some piant on a canvas, doesn't mean they are painters. Just look at his approval rating..43% with 7 votes...and that is with my YES vote. I think that if he gets into the second round(which looks easy with the schedule), I think people will come around.

It's at 62% now.

I thought he did well. I'd like to see him try the same tactic against lower rated teams.

He ran LI and M2M. What tactic are you referring to?

Your right, we need some high pot guard upgrades.

In the meantime, we got some nice looking SFs who can do the job

It was pretty effective YC/Wolph. For 80% of the game, we were going toe-to-toe with a team that would consider themselves a "contender".
That's a good thing, despite the loss.
And I really don't give a damn what designation players have besides their name, whatever works best. C'mon Wolph - we're talked MANY times about the necessity for us as a nation to think/operate outside the box. Last night was the first time we've actually *done* that. And to a large extent, it was fairly effective.

I will also state that I'm not entirely comfortable discussing this in an open forum...

I liked the fact that it wasn't a BLANK LINE UP....Swoosh got into auto pilot way tooooo much last season.
And Malice....I thought what he did last was cool, just didn't know what everyone was talking about when they were talking about TACTICS...It was LI and a M2M....Just didn't think that changing the starting 5 was considered a tactic.

Again - reiterating that I don't like speaking about the specifics in an open forum - but he didn't just "change the starting 5". I feel you're being somewhat dismissive due to earlier beefs. He took a chance, and it paid off - it's been a while since we've had a roster set that's gone against the regular BB mindset. To state that it was just "changing the starting 5" is being unfair.

Now... it's still only one game. There's a lot of work to be done... so I'm definitely not heralding it as the second coming - but I like the start.
