    Weird people would expect him to answer for state of team. Like blaming a journalist for bad news

    If that was sarcasm, I apologize. That was exceptionally non-evident.

    Ultimate respect for the "Schonz"! I'll start with a few of his memorable Schonzisms...

    "Rip City" of course.
    "Lickety brindle up the middle"
    "You've GOT to make your free throws"
    "Clyde glides for the jam"
    "Climbs the golden ladder"
    "Mercy, mercy... Jerome Kersey"
    "Bingo, Bango, Bongo"
    "Twardzik through the middle like a pinball."
    "Nobody ever said it would be easy"

    It should do us all in. Losing intentionally should never be an option. Schonley has too much class and pride to put up with this shit.
