If I can get over Gary Payton wearing the purple and piss, I can easily look past Sheed sitting on their bench STOMP
IDK Stomp? Bunch of people I know don’t really like or miss him at all. He was a good player sure but he was extremely toxic. I personally don’t want him anywhere near the Blazers. Wish him well and happy for his success yes but I’ll pass on him coming back here in any capacity.
Had my beef with Sheed but its water under the bridge at this point. Only reason I wouldn't have him back is the officials hate us enough already.
Nurk: They keep calling everything on me. What do I do? Sheed: Meet them in the parking lot after the game.
I was already aware you were in the other camp from your other posts, you'd made that crystal clear. I know that he was extremely unpopular with Quick and Canzano because he wouldn't play their stupid drama games and so they derided him daily in their stories. That for me was a feather in his cap as I always hated those two soap opera losers. I also know he was lauded and loved by his teammates and many of the games best players from his day. Players I hold distain for are those who's dirty play endangers other players and/or conduct themselves like scumbags off the court... my all time most hated was Karl Malone who combined both of those qualities. In general I don't pretend that watching guys play or watching them interviewed really lets me know them... hell, that ended with OJ. I hope Sheed continues to positively impact young players through coaching but suffer no illusions that he'll be doing so in Portland as that would be a PR pandoras box that I'm sure he & whoever is managing the Blazers will have no desire to open.

I’ve probably been too tough on the guy but no question I don’t and never will know him or what his true situation was. Wish him all the best. Totally agree it would be a mess bringing him here. Could be entertaining though.
