I’m willing to pay someone who is effective on both sides of the floor. It’s been a rarity for this organization.
During Blazer games, I am a "facilitator" (concierge) for the visiting teams. I am in the hallway you often see as all the players enter/exit the building. I work in tandem with the team attendents.I am always in or near the visitors locker room. The bummer is, I never get to see the games 'till I get home. For Winterhawk games, pretty much the same responsibility except I am at ice level and get to watch the game. (btw, the Hawks are really good this year, a relatively inexpensive ticket, I highly recommend! and those kids are all terrific, well mannered (off the ice) easy to root for) And at concerts, it depends...Sometimes I am at the talent level entry, sometimes in the artist dressing room, but usually on the side of the stage. For an lifelong NBA fan, and a wanna-be rock star, its a great gig. Thanks for asking, wiz.
If he is such a game changer on the defensive end as everybody around here claims.....why did we cut him already once before?
You've shared some experiences. Nothing I would call inside, but enough to get us a better idea about some of the dynamics we wouldn't know otherwise. But you've been responsible. I appreciate it.
Thanks bro! Yeah we can't talk about shit, no leaks. One day maybe a book when I retire! Oh.... I got a great Rueben Patterson/NewOrleans story!
HAHAHAHA!!!! I love Shanna. Very happy to be on her good side. Probably have as much respect for her as anyone in the building, to be honest. She may be a skinny little thing, but I don't care who you are, she can kick your ass, and I pity anyone who disrespects her. Gotta ask, how you know her?
I dunno. 'Cos they made a mistake? Flipside to that coin asks "why did he contribute to a championship last season?" With a ring, comes a reputation, and he got one.
I was a coastie from when I was 18 until about 25. Off and on. I got the gravy positions too. But I could tell story after story about Shanna. I once saw her stand toe to toe and give blows to a guy who was a high ranking gypsy joker at a Metallica concert close to 20 years ago. She loved me because she knew I had balls. But if you’re on her bad side she don’t give a rats ass about you.
A. We didn’t draft him B. He was a second round pick, not a lotto pick It’s simple….There are rules. You don’t draft guys from the Cuse and you don’t draft WABC
Who was the coach at the time? How many good defensive guards, that were poor 3pt shooters, did Terry play? Kerr snatched him up and played him to his strength. (And his shooting improved) We probably overpaid to get him, but we can always use his salary in a trade if he does not fit.
A_am Morrison has a ring. Who was that kid...out of Virginia, I think....won rings sitting on the bench with the Blazers and Sonics and rode it all the way to a failed GM job? Wally Walker!
