Re: KP FIRED! again I am not saying this from a KP is God standpoint... I am saying it because the lack of class this organization has shown.
Re: KP FIRED! (merged) I know its not THAT relevant, but one of my fav NBA players @ChrisMannixSI: Rasheed Wallace has retired
Re: KP FIRED! (merged) Give it a rest. Kevin Pritchard did not do anything to deserve anything other than a contract extension. He saved this franchise, where his predecessor couldn't see the difference between Sebastian Telfair, Deron Williams and Chris Paul. Don't suck up to Paul Allen and give him an excuse by trying to find a reason for KP to be fired.
Re: KP FIRED! (merged) Doesn't matter. Allen and Larry Miller are fucks. Another in the long line of fuck ups by Tweedle Dee and Twiddle Dumb.
Re: KP FIRED! I don't know how Wheels feels, but there's no "we" for me. I've never used "we" about the Blazers, because I don't consider myself a part of them and their actions aren't any reflection on me (which may be why I never was all that bothered by "character issues" of the players). I have an emotional investment in the team, and it annoys me that Paul Allen (in my view) is screwing up something I enjoy following and rooting for. I don't know about "deserving"...the team deserves whatever success it finds. I just think they're likely to find less success than they would have due to this seemingly irrational behaviour by Allen. Shame for me and for them.
