    Whats next, for example, if you are at work and you mess up somebody’s order in the drive through and YOU get fined or suspended? Can’t run a successful business that way FAMS.

    Consistently poor employees need to be held accountable. It happens in every industry

    And yet, we still could have drafted Jordan.

    Was watching some of the worst calls of all time and one of Dame's made jumpers made the list.

    All female refs sucked. The worst call in NBA History was hiring them. Clicking on the thread I knew it would be Holtkamp. She's fucking horrible and has no place reffing a kids league.

    I was going to say the worst call had to be...with the first pick the Portland Trailblazers select....Greg Oden

    Nope, that was the second worst call, the worst was when that one team took Bowie over Jordan. Whenever 3 out of the first 5 players are hall of famers and you’re picking second and the 3rd pick is the GOAT and you go with some stiff instead of winning 6 championships that means it’s the worst call ever....or you’re cursed.

    nah....we had Drexler and Bowie went on to have somewhat of a career...Oden did not.....I'm not the huge Jordan fan that most of the world is either..both bad picks but the Oden pick destroyed the team...coach fired, etc....Bowie signing didn't have quite the same impact

    If we had the first we would have taken Akeem.......
    We had a SG who was an all star and his backup was Clyde Drexler. We didn’t have a center on our roster. At the time everybody thought it was the right pick. Go back and look.

    Because it’s 2018. If she was fired, the NBA would be called sexist.
