Why does this dude keep getting new job after new job? I don't understand. What character traits has he shown that's been attractive to prospective employers? Does ESPN like guys that can stir up drama because that creates a firestorm that they can over-cover?

Considering how media is today id say you answered your own question here

 

[Cippy91]

Left Portland for Cleveland because of Lebron coming back. Waits for Lebron to get them a title. Kevin durant joins the Warriors. Good old Chris runs for that job. I mean, I understand opportunities but wow

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Who?

 

[theprunetang]

You do know that these people read this message board.

Exactly, he's perfect for ESPN.

 

[BlazerWookee]

What an insufferable twat.

 

[riverman]

He pissed off Lebron and the entire Cavs organization when he got there...don't think it worked out real well for him

 

[BBert]

Not a fan of his. So, perfect for ESPN.

When you keep moving around alot it not a good thing. It can of NBA player moves around alot no one actually wants you.

Haynes was nice. What did he do so bad while he was here? If anything he use to sweat the shit out of Lillard and hype him up big time. I think Lillard even loved that guy to the point he was invited to his house for BBQs

 

[HolyBackboard]

Yeah, I'm not understanding the animosity towards Haynes either.

...I think it's because he looks like Magic Johnson

 

[BBert]

He's a poor writer and a shit stirrer.

Chris is good people. Had the respect of the players. He has like 4 young daughters...... He's from Fresno, so I know he wanted to be back on the west coast. Good luck to him.

Anyplace beats living in Cleveland....I'm sure he's a nice guy, I only know his work which never really impressed me that much.

I thought Haynes was actually pretty decent. It was the shit stick (Jabari Somebody?) who followed him who was sucked a big hoagie. And now we have Quick. Gimme Haynes almost any day.....

Jabari was definitely worse.

He's a mumbling, illiterate nitwit.

Nice guy, though.

Agreed, but you know how white people are. NBA analysts all look the same to them...

 

[riverman]

beat me to it!

Say WHAAT?

 

[riverman]

He looks more like Peter Tosh than Magic Johnson

Bro... everywhere I go it's:

"You look like" (no I don't), "Has anyone ever told you" (yes this is not new), "You remind me of":

Insert random black celebrity here: ______________

I'm sorry but there's no way I can look like: Chris Rock/Tucker/Brown, Kevin Hart, Allen Iverson, Denzell (no fucking way), Cliff Robinson, and a slim Mike Tyson.... (@SlyPokerDog).

None of those people look alike.

I think you look like Justin Bieber.

I think you look like Justin Bieber.

So, you're saying he looks like a short Meyers Leonard?

I didn't want to insult him that bad.
