Someone once said that morale doesn't play into affect to this team..

They keys for the year are (1) to develop the young players by putting them on the court as much as possible, (2) determine which of those players have the talent to build around for the future and (3) evaluate if Ty Corbin should stick around after his contract expires.

(1) I don't think we've seen enough of Kanter or Gobert yet and I'm disappointed that they haven't chosen to play a lineup of Kanter, Favors, Hayward, Burks and Burke more than they have so far.
(2) I've seen nice things (periodically) from all of Gobert, Kanter, Favors, Hayward, Burks, Garrett and especially Burke. The more this group plays together, the more they should improve at a team. The only thing I don't see out of them is a legit #1 scoring option. I'm hoping they get that piece in the draft.
(3) Ty Corbin is not a good head coach. Nice person. Fine assistant coach. Terrible head coach. This is one area that must improve next year. Get a competent and exciting head coach (to go along with that stud from the draft) and all the struggles this year will be easily forgotten.

Agreed

So you're saying that if this team loses an xx amount of games that their ambition to play for this team and that their confidence and so forth, POSITIVE mindset will not be affected into next season? They will feel as if they were used to anchor in another lottery pick. Tanking is for mid-to-late season use. Golden State did it in a professional, and as much of a morale-secure manner a few years ago. There is still more than 60 games to be played. It's going to be tough on these guys, and the only way I see a full resolution to this is to ship out a few of the youngins like Hayward and Enes for something valuable in the future.

If you disagree and want to hit me up with hate, blow me!

If they get real depressed then they will be prescribed antidepressants. Its not hard to fix. And when we pick number 1 overall that should lift their hopes about the future.

What I am saying is. Its going to be ok.
