I just remember Nellie just insulted the team to the media at every opportunity. Maybe it was a motivational tool, but saying "we just arent a good team" and "we just dont have that much talent" over and over seemed to get a lot of people riled up.
Instead we get a coach thats trying to be optimistic despite having a team crumbling away in front of his eyes and I think he's being pretty politic despite it all. He knows we arent going anywhere but its not a coach's duty to publicly come out and say "yeah we need to trade Josh and get 'Gasoled'".
