Forum Game How much longer do you think Olshey deserves?

[Schilly]

I think Neil right now is like one of those Great White sharks off the coast of South Africa, circling the little island of seals waiting for one to go for a swim... aka he's sitting back waiting for a team in need of help with their roster situation. Boston is a great example if we could take on a larger salary figure for a shorter period of time we would be in better shape as long as we don't drop talent level... side step is fine.

How much longer for NO? Till Nurk cant produce!

 

[Natebishop3]

In just a few months he has added Nurk, Collins, and Swanigan.

Just because we haven't done anything yet this month, doesn't mean he's done. I really wish people would chill out.

Yeah guys! Let's all prepare ourselves for the impeding signing of 2x champion Sasha Vujacic!

You shut your mouth. That's not happening. That's NEVER happening.

Ooh, nice. Does that come with a complimentary hair net?

No it comes with a pair of Blazer Capri pants for men

Sweet. Now HCP can really go for the Euro look. He might have to save up for the ponytail wig and gold chains.

If you go back and look at past championship teams most are grown more methodically rather than making radical overhauls to a team already in the playoffs. You do have a couple anomalous situations like Lebron and Bosh bolting to Miami, but those weren't trades. The other example is the Celtics trading for Garnett and Allen. Yes if you scrounge around you will find champions that made tweaks around their core but those cores were pretty much home grown.

*Edit* I'm not sure exactly how to classify the current Cavaliers.

Classify them as lucky bastards who won the lottery in basically 3 years in a row, and who happen to be the home state of one of the greatest basketball players in history.

Denver has a Metro Population of 2.8mil compared to Portland's 2.3mil.

That's a pretty substantial difference... 18%. Also Denver has 11% black population vs Portland's 6% black population (and that number is shrinking).

Looks like Neil tried!

I'm pretty sure Pacers fans are wishing they'd have done that deal!

Looks like Mixum was right about Kpee all along.

This should be emblazoned on the masthead of the website.

Poor mixum. A hero we never understood we had.

Mixum was from Jersey. I don't give a crap if he's accepted there or not. He was a pain in the ass on this board.

Instead we got his *edited* cousin..... BGD.

People here seem to take shit way too personally/seriously.

Well, he doesn't generally post anything that should be edited. Posting stuff of dubious insight is different from posting an insult or whatever.

I can tolerate a lot, but blatant trolls that completely fuck up the rhythm of the site are not worth keeping around. We have banned a few of them, and it was completely deserved.

Awww come on... that's the PC version of my post. What if he IS special needs? Are you saying that's an insult? Why do you think being special needs is an insult? You should be ASHAMED Minstrel!

Mixum was definitely a pain in the ass, but my point still stands about there being a large contingent of the butt-hurt brigade.

Internet gonna internet I suppose?

If people would have ignored him it would have been fine, but that was never gonna happen. That's just not how the internet works.

It's been my experience in life that all people tend to take shit way too personally. That said, what does someone whose main purpose in posting seems to be to irritate the majority of people who post here really offer to the community? If even once in awhile he posted something constructive about the team, I'd have been in favor of him continuing to post. As it is, he goes down in board history as our greatest troll, as evidenced by the fact that we're still talking about him years after he was banned. I'm sure he's duly impressed with himself.

 

[Minstrel]

mixum was actively hostile, BGD isn't. There is a significant difference. The best policy for everyone is to either Ignore (using the feature) or ignore (using your native ability to roll your eyes and scroll down) anyone you dislike but who doesn't actively break rules.
