Fire Sam Mitchell.

From Doug Smith’s mailbag today:

Q: Is this team, as currently constructed a better fit for Sam Mitchell’s coaching style/abilities?

Steph R, Glencoe

A: I believe it is, yes.

a) Steph, you meant INabilities. INabilities.

b) No shit, Doug.

c) So with less decisions to make, we’ve helped shore up one of Smitch’s major deficiencies: decisions.  In retrospect, this is all Colangelo’s fault for providing too many options: take away square peg, leave round peg = no choice but to fit in round hole = Shatts.   [Shudders]

d) Yep, now TWO players we can run ‘horns up’ for. Tantalizing.
