RB: It seems like there is a perception that you just want to play veterans and not rookies? Does that bother you? And having some young players who could be a part of the rotation this year after not playing last season, how do you envision that going moving forward? SC: I don’t know where that came from because if you look back when i was here and in Orlando, I’ll just go … MKG (Michael Kidd-Gilchrist) started when he was here. Jeffrey Taylor had a big year my first year here. Cody Zeller was in the rotation, played every game I think his rookie year. He was healthy, started his second year. Frank Kaminsky played every game but one. When I went to Orlando, Jonathan Isaac was a starter from Day One when he hadn’t been the year before. Mo Bamba played every game he was healthy playing behind an All-Star starter, yet played every game. Markell Fultz obviously in Orlando

There are a couple more paragraphs to go along with what I copied.

While I am not thrilled by the retread, I do believe Clifford is a better, more experienced NBA coach compared to Borrego. If we resign Miles and Clifford is able to do what he is known for, (limit turnovers and improve team defense) we will be a playoff team.

    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
