The Ben Gordon pick pisses me off to no end. The fact that we can't put Chandler back at PF is the clincher for me. I'll give Paxson some credit for finding a few diamonds in the rough (Duhon, Nocioni) and drafting Kirk Hinrich and Luol Deng, but otherwise, I'm not too happy with his overall plan of attack. I won't even elaborate on Trenton Hassell. I know that he's a brutal offensive player, but god damn do we need someone who can defend the perimiter. Wouldn't it be nice if we had someone who could hold Lebron James to 20 as opposed to 35? As it is now, that guy is gonna singlehandedly beat us 4 times this year. That's why I root for him to sprain his ankle, as controversial as that might seem.
It seems like our road to victory this year is via the 3 point shot. That might work in college, but not on the NBA level. Pax is making Skiles look really bad right now.
There are a lot of dumbass GMs in the NBA. I'm not saying Paxson is retarded like Isiah Thomas, but I'm pretty f***ing far from impressed right now.
it's a rebuilding year. I'll leave it at that.
