Hilarious and spot on. We can't have epistemological certainty about anything....but I think the default is to assume that everyone is still doing the jobs they were hired to do.
Allen and Vulcan are the least likely group to get pushed around . . . having said that, a sustained "Kevin Pritchard" chant during a playoff game would be epic.
Quick is a Blazer insider you haven't noticed how he never predicts anything right? Marc Iavaroni ring a bell? His job is to stir the pot. Part of the real insider's job is to keep gossip mongers like him outside the loop of whats what. STOMP
I've been more critical of KP than most posters on this forum, but even I can't swallow the notion that KP is outright incompetent.
Two thoughts.... 1) It would be better to do the chant durring the game so the cameras will pick it up (and not during a time out). 2) I would suggest trying to start it at the beginning of the 2nd quarter and the beginning of the 3rd AND the beginning of the 4th. I think it will take a few times to get it going strong. If you wait until the 4th, there are too many other variables that may alter the plan (ie- a tight intense game...)
In the past, McMillan has sounded like he was fatigued by having to teach so many young players. So I think he would welcome Pritchard's departure, if his youth-baking philosophy left with him. Speaking of philosophy, if you've ever taken a course in it, you know the word epistemological. They say it all the time in the lectures.
