    Isn't Kroenke the owner? Sounds like a Jerry Jones situation is developing in Denver.

    Lol, what a joke. He's one of those players in the NBA that thinks he's never committed a foul.

    Bad stuff happened - someone else made me

    Good stuff - it was me!!! believe me!!!

    Go away.

    edit - and yeah, I'm sure the only thing KP did was trade for Sergio. He did nothing else that whole draft. Right...

    We've seen how KP operates since the 2006 draft. Funny, those drafts look a lot like the 2006 draft with all the deals being made.

    anyone else think that there was some kind of non-disclose agreement with Patterson's "stepping down" in 2007 that expired with his successor being gone? I mean, I haven't heard of or from Patterson in 3 years, and all of a sudden he's pressing more flesh and giving more interviews than a political candidate.

    And just to make one final point on the turd that is Steve Patterson

    SP stated that if something works out, he likes to spread the credit around to everyone and not direct all the credit to himself, and when something bad goes down he likes to take the blame.

    What does he end up saying? Roy and Aldridge were all mine!!!! D Miles, not my fault!!!

    Sure he's not on the job anymore, but I just found it funny. He's a turd.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Maybe he is a candidate, just not a political one. Patterson as the next Portland GM.

    No, I just think he's an opportunistic douchebag who got word of the timing of Pritchard's firing and saw it as a chance to rewrite his disastrous history through his own subjective and revisionist lens.

    Fascinating stuff. If Pritchard actually was conspiring to get himself and Penn promoted through a deception, then Paul Allen is taking the high road by not revealing the reason for the firing. It would be easy to make Pritchard look like a sleazeball, but instead he is just letting him go without comment.

    Well, that's the line the Vulcans are leaking. Sounds better than "Paul Allen got his widdle feewings hurt because Pritchard was getting all of the credit", I guess.

    Sounds more plausible, too. When has Allen ever been a credit-hog? I think he's pretty much the opposite.

    That's why he sits in the front row under the basket? Didn't see him at many games 2004-2007 sitting in his seat. I remember when he finally went to game after a long absence, the question was how he'd be received. Did hear him whine via Vulcan and David Stern about a broken business model during those yeasr, too. I'm sure that has little to do with seeking attention when things are going well.

    Where do you think the owner of the team should sit? Up in the 300 level against the wall?

    I think they should be in the same seat when things are bad.

    Oh, I see. It's not where he sits, but where he doesn't sit. Not appearing at games shows that he wants to take all the credit. Sure, that makes total sense.

    Did you listen to Lary Miller's pathetic presser last night? I'm surprised Paul Allen didn't walk out and have Miller service him during the middle of it. ;)

    Yes Men unite!

    It was pathetic. I'm no Larry Miller fan. But what that has to do with this discussion I don't know. If Allen was the egotist you claim, he would have been in front of the cameras himself.

    There is a difference between being an egotist and wanting credit. Anyhow, this bores me. Are Ed or Minstrel around to at least be interesting?

    No, sorry, you'll have to make all your unsupported claims and illogical wandering arguments to me.

    Does anybody here have supported claims? I do agree that all of us have illogical wandering arguments, though.

    Yes, many people here are able to provide factual backup for their positions.
