I don't know what to make of all the weird off-court rumors, but I have a feeling that the Warriors will be a worse team with Jackson gone

The Lakers should jump all over Mark Jackson.

I guess Miami learned from last year losing to the Bulls after an extended rest. Nets gotta win game 2 or it's done.

Paul George slept with Roy Hibberts wife.

 

 

 

 

Damn, My money was on Evan Turner.

After an amazing first round the 2nd round could not have gotten off to a worse start. None of the 4 games has been particularly competitive and 3 were total blowouts.

Where did you hear that. What an idiot.

The sad thing is if the rumor was right, it wasn't even his wife, it was his affair.

It's a debunked rumor.

So dumb, every year when a player has a poor playoff performance suddenly some player is sleeping with his wife.

Pau Gasol/Kobe, Tony Parker/Brent Barry, those Villanova players I'm forgetting, Steve Nash/Lenandro Barbosa, Lebron/Delonte West, and now Hibbert/George.

 

 

 

It's like the new my dog ate my homework, although I do believe a couple of them were true.

I'm sure some of the rumors are true just because these things sadly do happen but it is hilarious how there are rumors like this nearly every year now.

The only one I've had people tell me was certain was parker/barry.

I thought Lebron's mom and West was legit? Didn't someone have photos or emails or something?

Grace & Palmeiro and Ryne Sandberg's wife

Thought that was Dave Martinez?

Jamal Crawford (421 pts) edged Taj Gibson (395) for the Sixth Man Award. Manu Ginobili (138) & #Suns PF Markieff Morris (85) were 3rd & 4th.

No it was Avi Garcia.

Report: Warriors to contact Thibodeau, D'Antoni http://trib.in/1hCBb3n

I would say "Why dont the Bulls FO just come out and say he is unavailable so this nonsense can stop"

 

 

But, it is the Bulls front office.

Why do they need to? They have Thibs under contract. They can keep quiet and let a bidding war start. If you're GarPax and a team like the Lakers would give you their lottery pick + maybe take Boozer of your hands for Thibs and something else, wouldn't you have to think hard about it?

 

Coaches improve teams in the regular season. Stars win playoff games. If you don't have the talent, you're not winning, no matter how good your coach is. That's been proven year after year, so why would the Bulls put coaching first if they could land another potential all-star/superstar?

By all accounts, Melo wants to play for Thibs. So, if you move Thibs, then you lose your chance at that star. If that doesnt bother you, then by all means, let him go.

 

But lets be honest, this front office has done itself no favors in the ways they have handled management. Ron Adams being let go, the contentious nature with Thibs, choking VDN, Skiles leaving, Cartwright firing. It has been really ugly. So, if it blows up with one of the highly regarded coaches in the league, then you are risking nobody wanting to come coach this team, which will also lead to not many players wanting to play in Chicago(which is already a problem).

 

This team isnt the Lakers. They cant afford to consistently put their worst foot forward and hope for the best.

All good points. But I don't think in this situation they necessarily have to be public about what they want/don't want. They're keeping their options open. I think that's the smart play here.

Choking VDN?

Choking VDN?

 

You didn't know that Paxson and VDN got into a fight, and Pax grabbed VDN by the tie and basically choked him with it?

 

This is the nice version that came out immediately after it happened

I think I vaguely remember knowing about that at some point but it's completely slipped my memory.
