Bryan Colangelo

[ink]

yeah but how small would your fingers have to be to pull that off LOL

[Tmath]

Why hasn't this guy been fired yet?

[Bob_at_york]

i don't think he ignored the fact that jose was traded to the bobcats bob. i believe what he said is that jose and andrea should be gone. a quick check of the roster will show that they are not. i'm a fan of jose but that's what he said. hard to argue.

The guy said this:

Colangelo has never been shy in moving players, but for whatever reason Calderon and Bargnani have remained immune.

The Bobcats deal shows that Jose is not immune.

i thought he was just pointing out that they are still here that's all.

I didn't see it that way. He was saying that BC loves them so much that he would never consider trading them. At least that is how I saw it.

i guess. i saw it as "he hasn't tried hard enough to move them because they are still here".

Here, I'll give you 100 bucks for your car.

Strikes me those might be the kind of offers a GM of a struggling team with semi-desirable assets gets.

It's not a question of TRYING to sell your car, it's a question of being lowballed, and saying **** that.

ya i know, but the selling goes both ways.

I'm fine with this logic. But the salesman needs to sell the car before training camp next year or I'd be looking for a new salesman.

Edit: He actually needs to sell the car by the trade deadline IMO. Need more time to assess the value of the other cars in the lot prior to next off-season.

these aren't cars though. these are players. and there is a school of thought that sometimes it is worth it to settle in your selling price in order to move on or move in a new direction.

in my opinion that's the criticism the article of the author was leveling, and i have no problem with it.

but i'm not sure both need to go. i think a boat can handle one leak far better than two.

If you can't move AB for a fair deal then bench his *** and play Ed... At the end of the day its about WINNING and not catering to your 'superstars' (AB)!!!

i can support that although my preference is not to trade him. but Ed Davis needs to play more.

I've talked about this elsewhere. I'm now thinking that when they asked Bargnani those questions and decided he had a killer instinct, it ACTUALLY took him over a month for the synapses to fire so he could react.

At least that's about as quick as his reaction time seems to be now.

I also saw an article about this online about how they tested him and everything.

[Raps08-09 Champ]

no offense but i'd like some of whatever they were on when they thought he had a killer mentality. might help me get through my work day LOL

The test led them to believe he had a killer instinct.
