Re: Rating Coach Scott

What Byron said after Wizards game:

“They didn’t want to play, so I took them out. Simple as that. I was going to do the same thing in the third quarter. Like I said, it normally happens in the third quarter, but we haven’t gotten off to great starts in the first quarter. I just got to the point where patience is wearing thin, tired of what I was seeing, so I made changes...I think I made my point. So, I figured in the third quarter if they didn’t come out again I would take them out again and I am going to do that for the rest of the season. ”

From Tristan Thompson:
(On Coach Scott taking the starters out early in the game): “Coach Scott did the right thing. We talked about it against Toronto, how we have to be men and come out and fight. The first unit in the first few minutes came out with no intensity and no life. Coach did a great thing by pulling us out and it kind of reminded me of when I was playing in college; you don’t play hard, coach sits you out. It was good that coach did that and it definitely woke up the starters.”

From Dion Waiters:
(On Coach Scott taking the starters out early in the game): “I was very upset. We came out really flat with no energy. I respect what (Coach Scott) did. At the same time, I was mad but when I got back in the game, I knew what to do.”

He's got my respect at this point. Kinda up and down with Coach Scott, but he's not afraid to pull the plug. I always knew he could do this stuff, just a lost cause for the last 3 years due to the lack of good seasons. As our players improve though, it's clear he's not a horrible coach. But it'll be a test to see if he's worthy to bring us to the promised land and take us to the goal.

Love Dion's honesty. Also loved how the players came back and played after the benching. I was mad too, but it ended up being a good call by Coach Scott. Hopefully it sends a long-lasting message and not just the one game.
 
Re: Rating Coach Scott

Next think you know, he'll be playing 4 on 5 to make his point.

You never know -- things like that just might convince Jimmy Chitwood to come back to the team.
 
Re: Rating Coach Scott

Fuck this thread. We're done rating. Time to start the "Fire Byron Scott" thread. NOW.
 
Re: Rating Coach Scott

Should be fired right after the game.

Embarrassing how he stuck to his rotation as a 27 point lead was lost

I am glad people are finally seeing this, but Bryon's been doing this all season with his strict "I don't give a fuck what's going on the court rotation," doesn't matter if a player is hot/cold, other team on a run and etc. All he gives a fuck about is player X minutes / rest time.
 
Re: Rating Coach Scott

I have no respect for anybody who stands up for Byron Scott after tonight, none.

Heat go on a 50 point run. You make no substitutions. You call no timeouts.

A. fucking. failure.
 
Re: Rating Coach Scott

Fire his shit ass right now.
 
Re: Rating Coach Scott

It makes a lot more sense when you understand they're trying to tank.
 
Re: Rating Coach Scott

Man I'm so frustrated... Arghhhhhhhh
 
He should be canned before the press conference.

Tank this game? If he was really tanking this game, we wouldn't have had a 27 point lead at any point.
