Some Stotts detractors want this.....I want no part of it
For me it's the game I'm currently watching.
That too but when posting that there's no game on so.....it's the next one
This is totally false, c'mon Riverman. First of all, Terry just signed an extension so I don't think him getting fired is good for the franchise. Second of all, I'd rather they win a title and personally be wrong about Stotts' ability to adapt than them be mediocre and be right about him.
You didn't need to make it personal....I know you don't like Stotts...but I really wasn't targeting you with that post hoops...…..and in many cases it's not false...you are more objective than many others around here about these things. It's not a totally false statement whether it applies to you or not. There is a strong anti Stotts camp in the forum. Check the threads about it...or the Caption Contests....it's all over the place. You are a guy I respect when it comes to basketball takes, we just have different opinions about Terry most of the time but you are not over the top about it. Totally false is sort of "over the top" though
Then you should say some Stotts detractors. When you just say Stotts detractors you lump us all together whether you intended to or not.
c'mon….I think that's grasping at straws...if you identify as a Stotts detractor then you're lumping yourself in with them. That's not on me...you are using the "us" descriptor here. In my view when the Blazers make shots and execute well, Stotts system works ….he's got a hard task this season getting everyone on the same page and has had very few days with them in the PF....Melo hasn't even practiced yet. I'm a Stotts fan....and take a lot of flack for it more often than not. I don't call people out by name when I make these observations...which I think is the high road..it's ok to disagree but …."totally false" is not that
Calling out Stotts detractors is the high road? Oh okay!
I've listened to your podcast when you've lumped Stotts supporters into a group without a clue about basketball....you calling me out for liking Stotts? I can live with that but fuck calling me a coward for voicing an opinion...I didn't call you a coward for your views...quite the opposite. You're making a general statement personal. I try to avoid that around here. For the record, I've played high school basketball and was on a squad that scrimmaged daily against Taiwan's Olympic team....but I don't pretend to know more than Terry Stotts about adapting new rosters or integrating his system early in the season. Voicing an opinion is what it is.....everyone generalizes opposing points of views as camps of opinion...you do it all the time. Just because we don't agree doesn't make me your scapegoat hoops....there's conversation and there's insult...cowardly is an insult....one might think it's cowardly to bash a coach or compare their knowledge of the game with someone who's won coach of the month multiple times and had success without a superstar roster. I'd love to see you say these things to Damian Lillard and hear his reaction
My saying I wasn't singling you out was for the reasons I've stated. High road was showing you some respect for objectivity even if we disagreed...you've said that to me in the past and I appreciated it. Guess that you no longer see it that way...Some of my really good friends here are Stotts detractors......we don't have a problem about the difference of opinion. Mine is just less popular than yours these days about the coach
I have made it very clear on my show that I don't care what anyone else's opinion of Stotts is. If you want to like Stotts that's your opinion and you're welcome to it!
I'm no victim ...I enjoy the Blazers..if I offended you by saying Stotts detractors feel a certain way that I disagree with, sorry to upset you but I will not play a line in the sand game about opinions...I own my take on Stotts and the franchise and am happy to talk about why.
Disco sucks!
you wanna piece of me too?
fingernail clippings will arrive by UPS tomorrow!
