    I knew there was a "The peasants are revolting!" joke in there somewhere.

    Coach and player does not equal boss and employee. Similar, yes, but not the same.

    Those dumbasses just cost themselves a bundle on their next contracts, when few teams will have any interest in their intermittent services.

    Most of that team needs a change of scenery. Gordon was pretty good for the Bulls, and I'd like to think that Prince and Hamilton still have some gas in the tanks.

    Sounds a bit like my workplace. Well, you have to go to the court (choice of outdoor or indoors) if you want to shoot baskets, but in summer half the company is in shorts. Some of the gals & guys wear skirts, though, in hot weather.

    Exactly right. Joe D. didn't have a lot of options that offseason - he should have just held onto the cap space for a while. I am amazed that JD the GM doesn't value the fundamental characteristics of JD the player.
