36ers should Change Coaches if they lose next two

The main thing is to get Weigh on the court , even though he hasn't trained for a coupla weeks.
He's telling us , today.
Everyone looks pretty good , other than Weigh , limping around.
Don't ya get me wrong , he can play as long as he likes if he's playen good.
I think we'll struggle with Weigh limping around at these two games.

What you've also gotta think about is if we fire Clarke what else do we lose?
I have spoken to a lot of our players and they love Clarke, i don't wanna mention any names but if we lose Clarke we could lose a few of our Future/current stars, some of their contract negotiations (maybe not so much 1 year deals but multi year deals) could be based on whether he's there or not...

Besides i truly believe this team is on the improve in a big way, we just gotta stay positive...oh hang on, this is hoops i forgot :-(

I do get the impression that Management are a little hesitant to pull the trigger in these situations. But I guess you need to weigh things up overall and look at where they are in the current situation, is the season over? Is there a replacement out there currently? Is there someone we could sign now to a multi year deal? I guess I look at it in the same light as Adelaide United who pulled the trigger over the weekend and brought back a well known former coach. Yes United sucked big time, is the season over though? I believe Kossie is a better coach than Rini so yes it was a smart move. But would people be happy if they sacked Marty and brought back Phil? I doubt it.

In my own way I'm quietly confident that we can win them . With the win here on Friday , the weekend off, they looked pretty good out there. Simpson is in great shape , now for 27-28mins or so . You should've seen him getting jumpers in from a step inside the threepoint line. While he even swished freethrows , perfect. Creek's gonna shoot a whole lot better.
Weigh wouldn't make the team. If there's obligation to play him so many minutes , I don't think we'll win.

Can't see it happening TBH.

Gilbert Arenas is on the cover of EA Sports NBA Live 08 - do you think he'd be <a href="http://www.nba.com/blog/gilbert_arenas.html#070428_01">disappointed and not talking about it much</a>?: <blockquote>You know they slogan, Its in the Game? Im <i>in</i> the game and Im <i>on</i> the game.</blockquote>And just quickly, on another couple of issues: 1) Did anyone else catch the appalling double-page ad for financial company Challenger at the front of the Weekend Australian magazine over the weekend? It featured a photo of Muggsy Bogue ankle-breaking some tall dude (both clad in fictional uniforms, as the NBA appears, quite sensibly, to want nothing to do with this tripe), with the big heading: <b>He was the smallest player in the NBA. But he towered above the rest</b>. The wordy part of the ad finishes with the execrable line: <blockquote>We're rising faster than a Muggsy Bogues slam dunk.</blockquote>Not with advertising like this, you're not. 2) Courtesy of my wonderful sponsors at HoopsSA Bingo, here's my obligatory Deadspin link (regarding a female basketball punchup): <a href="http://deadspin.com/sports/wnba/the-wnba-has-its-charles-oakley-256235.php">ta-<i>da</i></a>!
