It's not all joke. Honestly, I cannot watch a Monty Williams presser. He talks so slowly, with such long pauses, it drives me crazy.lol.

58% is really ludicrous for a guy who's mainly a jump shooter and not back to back rim rocker.I don't know if you caught this from the article but Durant is averaging 25.6 points, 6.3 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 1.3 blocks per game while shooting 58.2%. Durant as two scores as a screener and 4 from on ball screens. The rest of all come from movement (off ball screening), isolation, catch and shoots and transition.
That is sick. That means he doesn't have to rely on someone picking off his man (on ball screen) to score most of his points.
Yup. Why they couldn’t make those the regular jerseys is stupid. Hated them on first glance but really came to love them and the court design that went with them.
The one team I'm afraid of. Thank god they made that Durant trade.Really not happy it looks like we are getting the Clips in round 1.
Ty Lue has badly outcoached Monty every time they have matched up.
With or without George it is going to be a tough series.
I watch most informational YouTube videos on 1.5 to 1.75 speed.Wait till its uploaded to YouTube and play it at 2x speed. Then he sounds normal.

The man is just never rushed and not many players are capable of making him feel rushed with his length.58% is really ludicrous for a guy who's mainly a jump shooter and not back to back rim rocker.
58%.
Imo we’ve been the more talented team in most of those games with George and kawhi missing many. 9-7 is an indictment of Monty’s coaching.I'm no Monty fan but that's a bit of an exagerration. Monty is 9-7 heads up against Lue and the Clippers. But I agree it would be a tough series.

You must be registered for see images attachKinda reminds me of someone, who talked slowly with lots of pauses....
If monty loses the second of his top two bench coaches I think he’s done. (Frankly I think he’s past his expiration date anyway)xc_hide_links_from_guests_guests_error_hide_media

Gee, sounds like Popovich. That's going to be the narrative, not that we can't keep coaches.It shows Monty is hiring the right assistant coaches.

... do you think there are teams that have assistants who when approached for a head coaching job elsewhere go "Nah, no thanks."?
What has been the narrative over the past 25 years? That Popovich is a coaching factory -- Monty himself came from the Popovich mold. I certainly don't see every assistant coach from every team being thrown around for jobs, do you?
@Hoop Head , not sure why you are asking me that question. I'm not enamored with Kevin Young myself, so I don't have much of an opinion, but losing Willie Green was a blow for us. If he is getting interviewed, more power to him, I was just saying that this puts Monty into an "unfirable" position if he starts getting a reputation of grooming assistants into full head coaches.
I say that because it makes it harder to fire Monty for what his weaknesses are. If we win the title this year, then all is forgiven, but there are too many red flags with Monty and if we go out of the playoffs like we did last year, then show him the door.I asked because you say that like its a bad thing that Monty helps mold assistants into head coaches. I agree losing Willie Green hurt but I think he also ended up in a great scenario. I don't believe this staff relies on Kevin Young like they did Willie, or rather Young doesn't do as much for the team as Willie did. So I don't view his loss as nearly the same level of loss, if he leaves. That's part of having a successful organization though, the assistants get head coaching gigs elsewhere. We were bad for so long I think a lot of us forgot what it's like to be good and seeing assistants poached.
If we flame out in the first round and someone like Nick Nurse is available, I don’t think Monty having a coaching tree has much bearing on if he’s fired or not.I say that because it makes it harder to fire Monty for what his weaknesses are.

We'd all like to think that, but you don't know that for sure.If we flame out in the first round and someone like Nick Nurse is available, I don’t think Monty having a coaching tree has much bearing on if he’s fired or not.
Nurse is my dream scenarioIf we flame out in the first round and someone like Nick Nurse is available, I don’t think Monty having a coaching tree has much bearing on if he’s fired or not.
Never said I knew anything for sure. Just my opinion that wins and losses will ultimately matter, especially if it’s an ugly loss.We'd all like to think that, but you don't know that for sure.
