Clarke to coach out the season

17 subs made during game. This included 6 in 2nd qtr including when Schensh got injured and adjustments had to be made.
We did this total in 3 quarters in the loss to Townsville.
Is that more or less subs?

I think the last time the Sixers played a 2-3 zone for more than 5 minutes was under Smyth.

Clarke's stubbornness to run "his" plan for every game and getting the same results, and thinking things would change if they kept working. At this moment with this team his system doesn't work. It's funny how the injury to Creek and then Schenscher going down last week forced a change to his system and for the better. His rotation plans had to change, etc. Against the Kings the Sixers looked more like a SMYTH team than a Clarke team. Intense defence, players playing with momentum as we're on court for longer periods, faster transition free flowing offence, getting steals in midcourt and turning into fastbreaks.The same things the fans on this forum have been posting. Basketball sure is a funny game.

^ Agree with that. Feels like we've gone away from natural strengths and a free flowing style. Looked a lot better vs. Sydney when the shackles were loosened.

In reply to questions onair@fiveaa . Clarke : ' 7 games were lost by small margins , all in different ways , giving up a big lead , being right in it all the way , 17 freethrows were missed in regulation and losing in overtime etc etc. We haven't gotta game closer ala Cedric lisch Ervin etc . A little bitta Dibson , Johnson hadda shooting slump and Schenscher's been good .
No , well those players new to Adelaide were not used to their fans booing them , it doesn't happen around the league , and yes , it did effect them , they wondered what's going on here ....'

I'm not sure how another club could justify hiring Clarke with the results he's posted at NBL level.

And no, I've never "dumped" on the SOS group - I have been and remain a supporter of theirs and posted as such in here as recently as this week.

I'm confused.

Rough day Anon?

I disagree with meds too, but going off them without consulting a doctor is not the best idea.

Throw in the internet and no good can come of your situation.

Try and relax - it's all going to be ok.

Marty needed to get himself another assistant coach once it was clear that some players had problems with Radford, that happened early in the three years, loyalty or stubbornness ? either way it did not help his progression as a HC. I thought that Stirling had been mentioned as providing some mentoring in the second year - but if that door was opened, I think Marty closed it very fast.

Don't say it often, but I agree with anon.

Marty can coach, and I believe with a head coach in the gig, and him as a lead assistant he could have success at NBL level. I personally think he jumped a bit too far into the deep end this time though.

Whilst the news sucks in my opinion, at least the club has some certainty around the next few weeks.

Adelaide has never been an organisation to take swift action and make changes - I don't think anyone really expected any other outcome here.
