  1. holy horsefeathering horsefeathers how on brand lmao
  2. Sammy Javy DLee Aramis Rizzo KB Wood Lester Schwarbs (his playoff contributions cement it) Brian McRae (just for the logan - but he really was one of my favorites at one time)
  3. he said that back then (that he advised scottie not to sign such a long term deal) and he has always maintained it when the subject comes up.
  4. i have never felt someone else's thought more
  5. that was horsefeathering great i want more right now
  6. I would prob combine the two approaches and have it something like Muncy, Freeman, Rizzo, Goldy
  7. 2nd or 3rdish... prob 3rd
  8. holy horsefeathering yikes this article
  9. to this day i still wonder...if jordan hadn't cut his finger with that cigar cutter, i gotta think they would've gone for one more go at it in the lockout year. especially considering they would've gotten all that extra rest after the 3 straight championship runs. who knows though.
  10. Dunno where else to post this but it seems like kind of a big deal... he'll have his own team!
  11. you knew paxson wasn't going to get tossed on the street. he'll have a title. same one doug collins has. I was thinking primarily of Boylen. gotcha. i'm thinking we probably won't see him officially canned until the season is actually canceled. but who knows...this is a very weird situation.
  12. Excellent...one down. you knew paxson wasn't going to get tossed on the street. he'll have a title. same one doug collins has.
  13. In case anyone was still worried about this...
  14. ohhhh right, this is a respiratory disease plenty of other ways to consume it tho
  15. Stealing the quotes/snippets here from a post on RealGM... Wowwwwwww. :o And perhaps most importantly: More at the link: https://chicago.suntimes.com/bulls/2020/3/18/21185570/bulls-gm-gar-forman-slow-rise-power-slower-demise
  16. They wanted to interview and weren't granted permission on either Webster (Japanese descent) or Troy Weaver. So, after that, your complaint is on the throwaway interviews that they didn't throw a minority in? Ok, fine, I guess. I also think it's a huge leap to know what we know about Webster's background and assume that he said, "Nah, I'm good" to an interview for an executive VP of bball ops for the team he grew up a fan of just because John Paxson might still have a title somewhere on the website and get a paycheck. If that's been reported, I've missed it, but as far as I know the Raptors weren't going to let it happen.
  17. That is heavily speculative, at absolute best, unless I missed something.
  18. I do think the token interviews they gave yesterday reached WTF levels like they almost went out of their way to pick the worst people imaginable. Beyond that, I don't really see anything wrong with the search they conducted and how (impressively) quickly they acted. They are also getting hammered in some circles for not interviewing a minority candidate. If they were just trying to throw a couple of interviews together to save face, im surprised they didnt find one minority candidate to give an interview to. Yeah, that was odd. I know they did get turned down on Troy Weaver. Vincent Goodwill is reporting that AK plans to hire a POC for the GM position.
  19. What was 100% wrong? I do think the token interviews they gave yesterday reached WTF levels like they almost went out of their way to pick the worst people imaginable. Beyond that, I don't really see anything wrong with the search they conducted and how (impressively) quickly they acted.
  20. they interviewed those guys (ferry, colangelo, and the atlanta dude) but karnisovas is the clear front runner and is up for his second interview. by all accounts, he wants the job badly and he supposedly had a great interview. it would be terrible if one of those other guys was under serious consideration but it doesn't look like that's the case. i can only guess that they decided to do some due diligence (not sure why it had to be those jerks) and interview some people after the other 3 guys they wanted to interview were a no-go.
