Im not going to compare the two situations. The Krause/Jackson feud didnt start until the Bulls were already winning titles, and the feud was over how much money Jackson wanted vs how much the Bulls were willing to pay. This is about roster criticism. These arent comparable in my eyes.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 1, 2013 -> 07:30 PM) The Oakley/Cartwright deal was a blockbuster at the time. Come on now, Cartwright was a complimentary piece, this wasn't going after a big name player.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 1, 2013 -> 06:37 PM) Krause also wasn't scared to trade for a big named player. Eh, he did that once, and Rodman was persona non grata in the nba at that point.

I get it, so someone else said that he is the next Clemente, so we all have to believe it now. It isn't "trust your eyes and instincts", it is "well someone in the print media said it, so I am not the only one saying it therefore it must be true"

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jun 30, 2013 -> 01:15 PM) Hey, you linked to a bleacher report article. Which I found linked on CNN.com

QUOTE (Noonskadoodle @ Jun 29, 2013 -> 11:52 PM) This Puig-Mania defense has been terrible tonight. First I saw him kick a ball into the stands for a ground rule double. Now to lead off the 9th he lets the ball get by him near the line which allows Michael Young to scoot into 2nd down by 1. But Puig is the best left fielder in the league

It would be interesting and compelling to see him blow out his arm like Canseco did, wouldn't it? Then we would need another bench player. Oh that would be awesome. Rich and Compelling

This is awesome too http://my.chicagotribune.com/#section/545/...e/p2p-76500311/ Gar Forman pulling a power play on Thibs. Really f***ing smart

QUOTE (Jake @ Jun 29, 2013 -> 03:09 PM) I thought Bill Simmons was the best person on that broadcast. I don't love the Celtics talk, but there wasn't that much of it and I enjoy him because I know he isn't full of s***. It's clear that the rest of the guys can't stand him, though. I also hate Jay Bilas. Nobody knows the draft class as much as he does, but he won't actually say anything substantive about any of them. He loves every draft pick. Great. At least Simmons will actually react to things that are happening in an honest way. Man, I couldn't disagree more about Bilas. I love listening to him talk about players. He is supposed to love them all, they are the cream of the crop that he watches all the time. His job isn't to talk about how good they will be in the NBA, he is supposed to talk about how they got there.

I like the drunk implications of this game thread title. Pinned and unchanged for all of our pleasure
