Would the following things make you change your mind about axing Ron...

1) the team goes on an extended winning streak, finishes at .500

2)Ron shows more emotion on the sidelines, maybe accidentally spits on some players while screaming at them...

3)Ron shelves the ludicrous read option and our backs start earning those millions...

Just a few off the top of my head... am sure you guys can add some of your own

You guys kill me with "more emotion on the sidelines". Ever gotten a look at Belichick? Who gives a poo about that. All that matters is winning.

And to be honest I think that is the only thing that will keep a New GM from coming in and keeping him. New GM typically wants his own guys. I don't see us getting to a 7-9/8-8 or better, but if it happens, then we're talking. Until then it doesn't really matter.

Absolutely. I don't need to see him screaming or spitting. I want to see the team look prepared. I want to see him show effective clock management. I want to see good adjustments week to week.

There are many things I like about Ron and it would be great to see him succeed. Based on what we've seen so far though, it is not highly likely that he can improve enough in 10 games to save his job. He just has not been well prepared in his former stints to excel as a HC in this league.

He's earned my trust back after having watched his last two pressers. The one today was more telling. The true test comes Sunday, and if we can suddenly find ourselves offensively against the League's best Defense... Well then... I think that it will speak for itself

I have some friendly advice for you. Don't trust his presser's, your setting yourself up for major dissapointment.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
