still sounds like a pretty lovely situation

Back in the old days you could buy a home despite having a blue collar job. Why should they be forced to move from their modest home because tech bros ruin things.

In fact, ownership's trust in Paxson and Forman remains so intact that they would be retained even if the Bulls miss the postseason for a second straight season, one source said.

It's well-documented that Chairman Jerry Reinsdorf and son Michael, who runs the business side as president and chief operating officer, are loyal and long have favored front-office continuity. But there's also inherent trust in the roster-building process that Paxson, Forman and their staff have in place.

One internal belief is that this represents the first season in the attempt to open a new championship window after the franchise had ridden out Derrick Rose's maximum contract — and myriad injuries — until finally trading Rose with one season left on the deal. There's also an internal feeling that Forman's publicly stated goal to remain competitive while overhauling the roster over several seasons to get younger and more athletic is working.

Yeah he's been good ever since he was put in the starting lineup. They should just tank (although Lillard has appeared to be thinking that for a month or so now).

Also it is always nice when Michael Jordan's dickishness is turned on someone deserving: http://nba.nbcsports.com/2017/02/07/warriors-owner-lacob-michael-jordan-told-him-73-wins-without-a-ring-dont-mean-s/

Joe Lacob posted:

“On the collective bargaining agreement, I was on the labor committee and I was in New York having a bunch of dinners with Michael Jordan and other owners. There were six of us. Actually, Dan was one of them, Dan Gilbert. Anyway, Michael Jordan — people are drinking and having a good time and all that, but there was a moment where he said, you know, ’73 don’t mean s—.’ He did it, Michael Jordan did that. And I looked at him and I just decided not to make a big deal of it. I said, you know, you’re right, we didn’t win it, we had to get better.”

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.

92 points, 7 assists on 76% shooting. That's dope.

And the fact that his teammate had a triple double on top of that.

Los Osos Coach Dave Smith called it “a joke.” He said Chino Hills players were fouling on purpose trying to prevent Los Osos from running out the clock and thus deny Ball more points.

“That’s wrong,” Smith said. “It goes against everything CIF stands for. The Ball boys are very talented and great players, but it’s embarrassing to high school athletics. I’ve been coaching for 35 years, and we’ve turned high school athletics into individualism.

Garpax will not be fired moving into the offseason" means they just won't be fired during the season, right? Firing those guys while still trying to get a lovely playoff seed seems like a bad idea.

I don't know how they think this reload is working, other than the fact that the Rose contract was probably a good deal. I mean, sure, you just fleeced New York, but keep in mind they beat out 28 other teams that would have liked to have fleeced New York!

From 2 ppg on 47% true shooting and no defensive talent to speak of, to never passing the ball, you outdid yourself Kyle!
