Borrego is out

Good coach but way too many blowout losses. It seemed it wasn't no in between...  like we either blew out someone or got blew out.  Marc Jackson would be my choice  but it is a few good options out and got to see what Utah does with their coach.

Good. Those play-in blowout losses in back to back years were unacceptable as was the team defense. I liked him as a person and he had some redeeming qualities in player development but still, this team needs a new and better leader for sure.

Said it should've been done after the play-in massacre against the Pacers last season.  It's the right move.

I agree with others, JB seems like a cool dude and a good man, but just as some guys make for better/elite OCs and DCs in football but just aren't good HCs, Borrego is a great talent developer, but he is not a HC.  Great guy to have on your staff, but he is not the guy that should be captain of the ship...  too many blowouts, bad rotations, constantly getting outschemed and outcoached, playing favorites over better options, etc.  And again, when we needed a win, we often not only didnt get it, but got blown out in the process when it mattered.  This is a relief...  and so many good coaches out there - Jay Wright and Mark Jackson would be at the top of my list.  D'Antoni is up there too.

Yup. It'll be interesting to see if Bouknight/Thor/Kai can get some actual minutes under a new HC.

    • I watched it this afternoon and I thought some of the best discussions was before it even got to the players. One thing that really jumped out to me was when Smitty was asked about how things have changed since he played and the thing he talked about was how when he played and going back to Jerry Rice says, the #1 targeted or looked to receiver was always the X and there's still a lot of people who's minds are still stuck in that idea. But what has happened is that the, what he calls, the F receiver...the flanker...is now the go to guy. You need the X to try and get safeties out of the box, but the QB is now looking for his flanker most of the time. Lots of good discussions all through it, but for some reason the ones involving Ladd, Corley, and Leggette was the most interesting. Ladd was how he may be best fit for just the slot, but he's the best slot guy in the draft and he's just a guy who gets open and doesn't drop the ball. Corley and Leggette are playmakers who are at a risk of being pigeonholed. Leggette is too stiff to be a slot guy but he can do things like Metcalf. Corley is likely to be used much as he was in college, as the big playmaker you just get the ball in his hands however you can, but he's got a lot of room for development as a receiver. It's just good football talk all the way through  
    • I'd resigned myself to 2000 and never.   Cautiously optimistic based on this off season that 2026 is a real possibility. 
    • In Charlotte in the lower price points it's still tough. 300 and under I'd say. Granted I haven't worked with a residential buyer other than 1 friend looking at expensive new builds in about a year so I could be out of touch but if rates Dip down again that would be a likely scenario
