January 24, 201214 yr Flip Saunders fired for the 3rd time. Inevitably he'll get another job... Professional sports love their retreads.
January 24, 201214 yr I hate David Stern... http://www.sbnation.com/nba/2012/1/24/2729559/david-stern-new-orleans-hornets-eric-gordon-hook Gordon's agent, Rob Pelinka, has engaged in recent contract talks with the Hornets' front office, but hasn't received an official offer. Gordon told Yahoo! Sports on Monday night he was informed by Hornets general manager Dell Demps that Stern must decide whether to extend an offer. The NBA owns the Hornets. Gordon wants to re-sign with New Orleans, but is uncertain if or when Stern will reach out to him or Pelinka. "In terms of my contract extension, Dell Demps indicated that it's out of his control and NBA commissioner David Stern has the last determination on the contract extension," said Gordon, who will be a restricted free agent this summer if he doesn't sign an extension. We have less than 48 hours to go, and Gordon's agent hasn't even received an offer from the Hornets because the Hornets can't extend an offer without the approval of the league commissioner. How about that? A young player Stern claimed the Hornets could build around after trading CP3 is waving in the wind ... as the commissioner decides how he wants to run a team he's trying to sell. Here's what really gets me: this is an abuse of power. These negotiations are held in the shadows, but we know the type of bargainer David Stern has always been. He's a ballbuster. He talks about "enormous consequences" and "nuclear winters" and chides anyone who dares stick a toe in his path. As he reportedly told Billy Hunter and a locker room full of NBA All-Stars a year ago, he knows where the bodies are buried, because he put some of them there. The NBA is by far the most corrupt league in all of sports. The NBA needs to sell the Hornets...yesterday!
January 24, 201214 yr Professional sports love their retreads. Agreed. Something I've never understood.
January 24, 201214 yr Flip Saunders fired for the 3rd time. Who's the interim? Wizards have been bad this year. They were awful last night in a loss to the Sixers.
January 24, 201214 yr Author Who's the interim? Wizards have been bad this year. They were awful last night in a loss to the Sixers. I don't remember his name. A lot more is wrong with that team other than Flip.
January 24, 201214 yr Randy Wittman. Isn't he yet another retread? Or am I confusing him with someone else? It's his job through the rest of the season.
January 24, 201214 yr You're correct.. Coached the Cavs and the T-Wolves.. Fired from both, I believe.
January 24, 201214 yr A lot more is wrong with that team other than Flip. No doubt. They have nothing in terms of interior scoring. And to be honest, Wall hasn't been much to write home about until the last couple of weeks.
January 26, 201214 yr Lakers Clippers game was EXTREMELY chippy last night. Do you expect anything less with guys like Metta World Peace, Bynum, and Barnes out there?
January 26, 201214 yr Author Do you expect anything less with guys like Metta World Peace, Bynum, and Barnes out there? Did you watch? Guys like Griffin, Evans, and Paul were just as much to blame. Obviously the Lakers have a bunch of idiots on their team we know that but the Clippers were just as much to blame.
January 26, 201214 yr Did you watch? Guys like Griffin, Evans, and Paul were just as much to blame. Obviously the Lakers have a bunch of idiots on their team we know that but the Clippers were just as much to blame. You gotta protect your turf. Can't let the lesser squad push you around.
January 26, 201214 yr Author You gotta protect your turf. Can't let the lesser squad push you around. Now the Staples center is the Clippers turf? Please. :lol: The Lakers won by the way.
January 26, 201214 yr Now the Staples center is the Clippers turf? Please. :lol: The Lakers won by the way. They won a game. The last team standing in LA will be the Clippers.
