    I suggested it in another thread. Paul Allen can write an open letter to LaMarcus, ala Dan Gilbert to Lebron.

    This.

    I bet Thibs wins 60, or close to it, with this roster.

    Good. That was insanely stupid what he did. Like insanely. No excuse for it and any other corporation would've fired him too.

    'Becoming' it shows signs of Allen's and Vulcan's presense that's for sure.

    I agree. It was unfathomably stupid. Who knows if it had an effect on signing others.

    If there is still this much dysfunction in the front office then I think it seriously might be time to change the one constant over the past years....Not sure what that would mean for this organization though.

    Corporate of me? That's your dialogue? You can do better than that cmeese...firing Hughes was a given even if you're in hippy commune and told the city crackheads where the pot field was...I could go on but you expected him to be commended for it?

    This move was probably the main reason why we struck out on Monroe. Which then lost any hope to keep Aldridge. I'm sure Blazers are pretty salty at the chain of events

    Not a given, which is why I had a poll!
    only 44% 14 of 32 thought he would be fired.
