So I was reading this article about the relationship Monty and Demps have formed when I read this sentence: Source: http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/news?slug=aw-hornetswilliams110510 I hadn't really read much about KP having his own agenda...guess that's another reason management wanted him gone? Or do you think the writer is just assuming?
If "Williams won't say it", how does the writer know? Did Monty act it out in charades? Talking of Monty, I wonder if the team is suffering in part because he's gone?
Williams won’t say it, but as a Portland Trail Blazers assistant coach, he watched the way GM Kevin Pritchard carried out his own agenda, the way that trust broke down. By Adrian Wojnarowski, Yahoo! Sports Williams "won't say it" = more editorializing by Woj. Had Williams "said it", there would be a story. Instead, poor Woj has his anti-Pritchard pipeline rendered useless, and likely many of his sources in the NBA in the aftermath of his KP witchhunt, so he is insinuating things in his writing to keep that dead horse alive. Woj is a douchebag. Stick to substance, you fucking douche.
There's a bit of creative license there, but did Monty lobby for KP to get the job? That doesn't mean anything but there could be something to it.
That fucker Pritchard built a team that was a laughingstock five years ago into a 50-win caliber team. He sucks. It's probably a good idea to continue expending the energy loathing him.
Why would Williams lobbying for a GM mean anything? Plus, "a bit" of creative license? It is basically the definition of creative licensing, and very unprofessional in what was supposed to be a news article, IMO. Poor Woj is losing his sources. Couldn't happen to a bigger douchebag.
Ah, see that's your mistake. He's not a reporter, but a columnist, and columnists don't write "news" articles, they get paid to write op-ed.
You guys still think Wojo is making stuff up even after KP got let go and other reports have come out about his demeanor. It's pretty funny. Ed O.
Who do Blazer fans hate more; Woj, Bill Simmons, Barkley, Canzano, Quick, Jaynes, Walton or Stephen A. Smith? Seems like Blazer fans think the media is against them, if so, why would they be?
Because the media is jealous of us. Those guys spend all night thinking up their implausible hypotheses, whereas we just crank them out here rapid-fire, dozens per hour. We are just way better than them, that's why they hate us. barfo
Woj literally did make up what Monty Williams thinks about Pritchard in this article, at least how I read it. "Willams won't say it" means nothing in terms of the truth. If you have any more factual insight, please share it. If not, I have to assume you are talking out of your ass yet again. Do you have factual information, Ed?
There's also "on the record" and "off the record," but I guess it's possible Woj still really has a burr up his ass about KP and used Monty as a tool to get yet another shot in on the guy, but to what end? KP isn't even in the league right now.
I have visions of Mark Warkentein still calling Woj non-stop with "one time Pritchard also did this...!" anecdotes.
