haha. Your nuts if you think Hat Guy has any kinda pull on trades. He's mainly a consultant helping the players. He works a lot with Patty.
Old, short bald guy always working with the players. Limping around with really bad posture. Its hard for me to believe that guy has strong connections around the league when it comes to trades.
.... hah! You would give anybody else aside from the General Manager credit in this trade. After all, you were involved in the trade discussions ...
Somebody, somebody, has to you see. Then she picked up two somebodies. Larry Miller and Me. -- The book of Cho.
I have Cho as my avatar, and I gave him credit for helping get Wallace to Portland. I just find it curious that the same people who blamed KP for getting too much credit are now heaping individual praise on Cho, when Larry Miller even said that the Wallace trade was an organizational effort. It seems like inconsistent (hypocritical?) logic to me. http://www.blazersedge.com/2011/2/2...-miller-gm-rich-cho-talk-gerald-wallace-trade Secondly, you're an usher. What trade discussions have you been involved in with Cho?
The people who criticized KP for taking too much credit, yet now seek to praise Cho. I made that quite clear. Your reading comprehension issues are rearing their head again. Next, you'll ask "LINK?", and even if I provide a link, it still won't satisfy you. Take your inferiority issues elsewhere. They, frankly, bore me at this point. I have a rocking discussion going on with Minstrel in the OT section now, so have a good one!
Right on cue! Toss some garbage on the wall, and hope nobody calls you out on it...if they do, get butthurt.
I'm not the one saying that persons outside of the GM are the one's who should be given credit for a trade. I don't know what happened in the discussions, and I don't try to. All I know is that every other GM in the league gets credit for trades that happen under their watch. Yet, when Cho makes a trade it must have been somebody else pulling the strings because it goes against your whole original premise that Cho was a horrible GM. Sometimes people on this site get so caught up in their agenda's it clouds them from reality.
Where did I say Cho shouldn't get credit? Also, did you read the link to Larry Miller's comments after the trade? By his account, it was an organizational effort, and Miller led the press conference after the trade. Seems like you're the one who has reality clouded. I said Cho has been a Top 10 GM this year. Sorry if I don't think he is EotY, but I just don't see it. Didn't you start this thread?
Organizational effort. Okay kewl. I'm sure most trades are an 'organizational effort' in that more than just the GM is working on it. Neither of us know what goes on behind the scenes, so lets stop speculating and give credit to the actual GM. No, your reality is double clouded... I know you are but, what am I? Neener, neener, neener! I did start the thread. I also made a 2nd post admitting that it was made in jest. I was looking to spark some debate, which I did. I don't have anything going on tonight and your bored. You wanna get in a back-and-forth pissing match and turn this thread epic? Just say something snide about me personally like you usually do and we can go from there ...
Is that considered baiting? Anyhow, nope, not interested in your or BB30's games tonight. I feel I made a valid point about Cho, supported it with evidence, yet didn't bash him. I'd like to see you and BB30 go at it. Any chance of that happening?
Being down 23 points in a game where you knew Houston and Memphis lost is the sure sign of the NBA EotY! Cho mo years! Cho mo years!
Cho did an OK job, but nothing I would call "Exec of the Year" worthy. He's really got his work cut out for him in the next couple of years and I'm curious as to how he's going to address this team's massive roster related issues.
