Is it always this bad in the offseason?...



I guess I'm asking Grunge, Orange, and Tom this question. It seems like we've got a bunch of people who want to "shake things up" and don't really know what the consequences could be for those actions.

 

If you look at any of the bottom feeders in the league you know they have problems and what is the result of those problems? Bad chemistry due to trades, coaching changes, and unhappy players. I can't understand how after losing in the first round for the longest time these people want to all of a sudden jump ship and get a new coach, get a new gm, and all this other bs when so far they have not only done their jobs well, they've actually exceeded expectations that everybody has put on this team.

 

Nobody thought we'd compete in the second round against the Lakers but guess what? We did. When Yao went down everyone thought we were done. The ONLY reason we were able to compete after that was because of hard nosed play, young athletic talent, and good coaching. Yeah we didn't win but 7 games with the eventual champion and THE ONLY TEAM TO TAKE THEM THAT FAR is pretty good in my book.

 

All of the things that made that possible came through the trades made by Daryl Morey. Aaron Brooks became one of our main scoring threats. Could Rafer Alston have done that? Maybe for a game but I wouldn't bet on it. So please tell me that these trolls always come out because I'd hate to start blasting these people if it happens annually. If this is a first then I applaud all of you in dealing with these vagabonds because I could not.

No cursing in title. No pirated material, such as links to online game streams. Do not cut/paste entire sections of content from other websites. Thanks.

"It's who we are," Battier said. "I don't think we're going to get the love of the six foot blonde bombshell. That's what the Lakers are here for. It's alright, I like our demographic."

13 points in 39 seconds. Enough said.
