Lemme guess? "It's a process" -- Larry Miller

 

[illmatic99]

I want to hear from Kaleb. Wonder if they'll conference him in.

Man, they did just about everything you were hoping for. Can't you give the sarcasm a rest?

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

"It's a watershed day for our organization."

 

[Nikolokolus]

Man, they did just about everything you were hoping for. Can't you give the sarcasm a rest?

Not everything ... Larry's still here isn't he?

And for the record I'm pretty damn happy. This was a good day.

 

[THE HCP]

I want to hear from Kaleb. Wonder if they'll conference him in.

Doubt that will happen. Probably not til we get home.

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Doubt that will happen. Probably not til we get home.

Eh, dogg. Definitely let me know before you come home!

 

[illmatic99]

Larry in Jump(man) suit.

LOL

 

[illmatic99]

Don't do the air quotes, Larry

 

[Nikolokolus]

Don't do the air quotes, Larry

What's he saying? I don't really have it in me to listen to him talk.

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

<facepalm>

 

[illmatic99]

What's he saying? I don't really have it in me to listen to him talk.

He's saying writers should stop saying we don't have a "GM."

 

[illmatic99]

Top 3 this year.

Top 2 next year.

1st pick protected year after.

Nice.

 

[MARIS61]

Can't they put a mike on the questioners?

 

[illmatic99]

I can hear Dwight Jaynes going on his dumbass rant about PA selling this team. Fuckin hell shut up, already.

 

[Nikolokolus]

He's saying writers should stop saying we don't have a "GM."

Rhetorical question: Well ... until they fill the position ... what are they supposed to be writing?

 

[B-Roy]

"We're not giving up on this season"

Come on Larry, just say it hahahaha.

 

[magnifier661]

I don't know, we may still win games.

 

[MARIS61]

He keeps saying new direction, but doesn't say what's new about our direction.

Feels like deja vu all over again to me.

 

[illmatic99]

You expect him to say who exactly he's targeting in free agency and the draft?

"New direction" is what he should say.

 

[MARIS61]

"Going to wait til all the good coaches are gone before starting our search."

 

[magnifier661]

He keeps saying new direction, but doesn't say what's new about our direction.

This is much different than the jail blazer era. We actually have a good core of talent left, cap space and no albatross contracts. It will be much easier to rebuild, IMO.

 

[magnifier661]

"Going to wait til all the good coaches are gone before starting our search."

I expect us to find one before that. Since we really don't have a coach, we can interview now without breaking any contracts, well have a head start.

 

[illmatic99]

There is absolutely no need for Larry Miller to be this defensive about the moves today. The people who are asking these questions are idiots.

 

[MARIS61]

You expect him to say who exactly he's targeting in free agency and the draft?

"New direction" is what he should say.

I was referring more to management style, playing style...

I see no hint that anything will be different. The problem players are all still here, the bozos driving this bus are still here.

 

[magnifier661]

Nba.com tv said we are the biggest losers. I laughed!

I expect the new GM and coach to talk about that. Not Larry Miller.

We couldn't trade Felton. There is a reason why we still have him.

Miller just said he won't.
