Good luck to Sam. He seemed like a class act.

Poor Smitch. Not his fault his starting PG is a sieve defensively and is the biggest stat padder in the league.

Sorry, I call it the Derek Jeter syndrome. So much of the fanbase is gaga over an a guy overinflating his worth that it makes me want to hate the guy a little.

Re: Sam Mitchell Fired

Probably deserved, I didn't see many Raps games but they seemed to have talent on paper to have a better record than 8-9 right now. That may be a attractive job so I wonder who gets it in the end.

To be honest, your whole team is a sieve. Bosh is a terrible post defender, and Bargnani and Kapono may be the two worst defenders in the association. Your only above average defenders are Moon and Parker.

I bet Raptors fans hate me.

Re: Sam Mitchell Fired

I bet Raptors fans hate me.

To be perfectly honest, I'm thinking its more of an apathetic feeling.

Re: Sam Mitchell Fired

I'm not a Raptors fan.

I'm a Knicks fan. so yeah, my team is kind of a sieve.

Bargnani is not a bad defender. He's not very good at the 3, but at the 4 or the 5 he at least provides shot blocking and he provides intimidation. Moon and Parker don't even play that good of defense, all that Moon has is athleticism. Can't tell you how many times I've seen Moon burned or out of position.

Bosh isn't a terrible post defender, I would call him average

Raptors fans views towards me?

Re: Sam Mitchell Fired

He should've been gone as soon as he challenged Rafer Alston to a fist fight.

Re: Sam Mitchell Fired

Funny how I was telling my friend after last night's display that I won't watch the team until he's fired...

Thank the good lord and BC. While his team was a bit flawed, we had no system on offense, no set plays and we were always lost on D. The Raptors would always double when they shouldn't and overhelp leaving open shooters.

Smitch couldn't prepare a team to save his life. He needs to go back to being an assistant again.

Re: Sam Mitchell Fired

Sam is a class act though. I'll say that. But man the team became so boring to watch, especially this season. I think the players quit on him. He tells Jose to push the ball upcourt and he still goes at a snails pace. Something had to give.
