I mean.... yeah? Oblivious owner. Green GM. Inexperienced coach. It's the worst combination of factors.
Yeah, listened to most of the interview last night It's interesting. Noted how people seem happy to leave Portland (implying both CJ and Nance were happy to get out with Nance saying "what a good day" to NOLAs one year anniversary tweet of the trade and tagging CJ). He mentioned others (Hart was one, and I think there was one more) being happy. He never went into details about the bad culture shift. Just said "The practice facility wasn't a place where you could ball with your boys. It was ran like a practice facility" (that's paraphrased). Again, it's interesting. But it's quick, and he always sounds grumpy and spiteful so his tone always sound accusatory lol. There may be some merit here. Olshey ran a tight ship.
Careless owner Puppet GM We’re headed towards pre-beam team Kings Phil Knight is the only person who can save this dumpster fire.
Oof. The coaching culture stuff is not a good look. The lack of professionalism at the PF is tough to hear. Youngins not following Dame is very tough to hear.
I don’t hate Quick as much as say Canzano. But, I listened to that yesterday. He has a fractured relationship with Lillard. Because he said the team should move on from him last year. Supposedly everyone within the organization gives him the cold shoulder. So I’m wondering how he’s privy to this kind of stuff. Also, what players on the team would have a posse that would be overtaking the practice facility, like suggests?
That was the main crux of it. He just made comparisons between Olshey and now and his main point was "Olshey ran a tight ship and this is how it's different now" mentioning primarily the practice facility and how it's changed. One thing that did stick out is that apparently Sharpe is tardy a bit for meetings and such .. there was another player but I forget who. It's not the most surprising thing in the world that a rookie who is fresh from high school may not understand the importance of it all (and to be fair, he never gave a timeframe of when this happened and also if it had stopped. I have a feeling Dame would have corrected that).
I don't think he's privy to anything. Quick is the guy writing for the junior high paper that may have seen Susie kiss Brian in the hall while the classroom door was cracked, and Canzano was the editor.
Like I said in a previous post, no timeline was given (i.e. Sharpe being tardy) to say it had been corrected and I'm giving dame the benefit of the doubt that he corrected that. That's my beef with that. Was this in the beginning of the season, did it happen last week? He never said it changed but quick isn't the most tapped in since he fractured the relationship with Dame and most everyone there lol.
Nah, it was through a peak through the mini-blinds. We have been down this road before. Most likely manufactured drama for dramas sake.
Jason quick needs to follow Canzano out the door. Anyone reading that and taking what Quick said seriously needs to get their head checked. then again some of the posters replying agreeing with Quick doesn’t surprise me lmao
yeah...I think Quick has burned the bridge with Dame, all the way down; and just about all other Blazer bridges as well. I also think, going by his history, he's not above being vindictive that said, I understand SOME of the negativity around here and that which seems valid, to me at least, all seems connected to ownership and the Vulcans I'll also commit some heresy: the ownership the last few years of PA wasn't that great either
HAHAHA Ok… first Josh hart Tweeted out his love for the organization Played Villanova with jalen Brunson who he’s very close with. I’d be happy too? He could’ve got sent to Cleveland second..the practice facility was tan like a practice facility? GREAT…THATS WHAT IT IS haha I swear man you wanna go “run with the boys” then go to the park or find another profession
