What Should Your Team do For 2014-15?

[Meticode]

Simple question. What do you want your team to do personally for the next season?

[Mr Exlax]

I want the Rockets to get a coach that is more hard nosed and tougher on the players. More attention to the defensive side of the ball.

[Le Shaqtus]

Win more than 5 games.

[Meticode]

Cleveland Cavaliers

Draft Embiid if he's healthy and the back isn't an issue. If not Wiggins or Parker.

If the right situation comes up to move Anderson Varejao, do it. If there's a year he gets traded it's this one. He's on his last year of his contract at over $9 million, when healthy he's one of the best offensive rebounders in the league and would be a great player for any contending team.

Extend Irving.

Find a balance between Irving and Waiters on the floor at the same time.

See what Bennett can do healthy with regular playing time. Hopefully he's in shape.

Decide what they should do with Jarrett Jack.

Find a competent coach.

A lot of the Cavs plate this summer.

Definitely agree here. From the start I didn't think McHale was a good fight. I wish Jeff Van Gundy would come back and take over a team like the Rockets.

Hope the Cavs **** up with the #1 pick again, and draft Embiid.

Trade Sanders, Pachulia, Delfino, and any other old vet that isn't a part of the future.

Start Knight-Mayo-Giannis-Henson-Embiid.

Play the **** out of those 4 guys (not including OJ), and hopefully it leads to 1) lot more experience and physical/skill development for them, and 2) another top 5 pick for the team

Draft Mudiay to play combo guard and take away playmaking duties from Knight, or Cliff Alexander to replace Henson in the main core if he doesn't improve enough.

Go into the 2015-16 season with Knight-Mudiay-Giannis-Henson-Embiid. Shoot for the playoffs, and see where it goes.

He was ok when we were rebuilding. No expectations so he didn't have to be any good. Once we got Harden though I knew it was gonna be bad. I'd like to see us get an upgrade at the PG position. Harden is gonna have to play off the ball more so it would have to be a top tier PG. More than anything though, new coach and I think we're title contenders.

Did you mistype? You said you hope the Cavs "draft" Embiid and then you proceed to show Embiid in the Bucks lineup. Do you mean "not" draft Embiid?

[16X]

Tank once Kobe gets hurt again the third game of the season. I'm not very optomistic about next season. I'll be happy even if we don't make the Playoffs, as long as Kobe stays healthy.

[Smook A.]

I want a new coach. I don't like Kevin McHale, because he just falt out can not coach. He's not tough on his players, he can't make the right players, and also im 100% positive he doesn't know defense. Im sure even non-Rockets fans would agree with me here.

Nah I meant that from the Bucks perspective, but forgot to elaborate on the first part. As in, we should hope the Cavs screw up the #1 pick by not drafting Embiid, and then proceed to draft Embiid for ourselves. Should've worded it differently.

Anyways, it doesn't really matter considering the recent reports that he looks great. Looks like we're gonna be taking Wiggins or Jabari.

I'm still waiting for it...

"With the first pick of the 2015 NBA Draft, the Cleveland Cavalier select...Jabari Parker of Kentucky University."

Maintain the top 3 defense while also gaining a real offensive system, build on the improved bench, and maybe make a move for Kevin Love.

[Adam Silver]

Not for a specific team, but I plan on setting up a new play review system away from the court to really troll the fans.

[russwest0]

trade both draft picks up for Doug McDermott to provide a sniper for OKC

bring Tibor Pleiss over from overseas to be backup center to Steven Adams

amnesty Kendrick Perkins

hire Dave Joreger to be head coach, fire scott brooks

sign a veteran 3pt shooter to provide another sniper. minimum 40% from downtown

[andremiller07]

#1. Let Rudy Gay opt out and under no circumstances re-sign him
#2. Let Isaiah Thomas go unless he wants 3-4 million a season
#3. Try trade for Al Horford and Demar Carroll and package the 8th pick amongst other assets for him.

[Cocaine80s]

4peat

[T_L_P]

Shake things up. Popovich and Duncan are too old, since Manu's balding he's never been the same.

Trade Duncan and Manu for Beverly and a couple of 2nd round picks. Maybe even push to get Jordan Hill in Free Agency.

Thoughts?

[Im so nba'd out]

i trust our front office what ever they do its for the best:cheers:

[Uncle Drew]

- Draft: Joel Embiid
- Coach: George Karl
- Sign: Solid 3&D guy at SF (Ariza?)

Kyrie
Waiters
Ariza
Bennett
Embiid

[Trollsmasher]

get younger

[maybeshewill13]

1. Fire Brooks. Replace him with a coach that will put in place an offensive scheme and hold players accountable (especially Westbrook).
2. Find some bench depth. Someone who can create their own shot and a big man.
3. Start Adams instead of Perkins.
4. Let Thabo go, trade to replace him or start Lamb.

[JohnFreeman]

bang hoes

[Xiao Yao You]

Hire the right coach and staff.

Get lucky and draft a future star somehow to start building around. Favors/Hayward aren't the guys for that.

Sign Hayward to a front loaded contract so they only overpay him for one year and have money for Burks/Kanter next year if need be. Or let him go if someone wants to give him more than that. Possibly a sign and trade if it makes sense for them.

Sign a veteran pg/combo guard that can help them on the court unlike John Lucas this year. Someone that could start if Burke/Neto/Smart/whoever aren't ready to. At least someone that can push them and mentor them.

Say goodbye to Marvin Williams!

Sign some other quality vets to fill out the roster and set an example for their young guys and push them.

See if anyone wants one of the best players in Europe Tomic. Not sure the Jazz have a spot for him but now appears to be the time for him to come over.

Use their new D-League team to groom players instead of having them rot on the bench.
