Do you have a link to it?
He's made good moves the whole time he's been here. He's been the best GM we've had in an extremely long time. Anybody who wanted him fired or railed about how bad of a GM he has been should man up and eat crow. If you don't like people holding your feet to the fire just don't be so over reactive.
Plenty of other teams (and GMs) were also given this gift and they chose to pass on it. If it works out (can't judge it one way or another for many years) he certainly deserves credit for it.
And I'm in my 50s
He's still been the best GM we've had in decades. Even with the mistakes. He's an extremely good GM. He was an extremely good GM even when he gave those "mistake" contracts to the guys who helped get us to the WCF for the first time in decades... It's a joke that anybody was giving him a hard time. An absolute joke. I'm sorry if you fit in that category. Eat crow. That's what you get for publicly disparaging a guy. It's public. People remember. You're on record.
As someone who hit the big 3 0 last year, I appreciate it.
No one gets a trophy for making it to WCF's. I like NO's moves the last year or so, but seriously saying he's the best GM they've had in years, well it's been like 40 years since they won a ring, all that really proves is we haven't had very good GM's. It was a great year, no doubt, but acting like this one year (in which they got swept in the WCF's) proves that any criticism towards him is now negated doesn't really hold water either.
And it doesn't necessarily mean we don't want Hood. I suspect we do. It's more likely that we can't afford him after his hot playoff performance.
I've defended NO all along. The biggest mistake he's made was letting Aldridge walk. He should have traded him the year before when his value was highest and he refused to re-sign with us. Aside from that he's paid guys big money when big money was being handed out.
What does any commentary by any fan on any forum about any team ever accomplish?
