So that's what NBA players do in the off season. No wonder I still suck so much at basketball.



Ya well, at least I don't fuck a fleshlight with a condom on and cry at the same time.

where did they say that? everywhere I've read says Rambis was the leading candidate to replace Phil O_O


I read that a while back when the Bucks started looking for a coach (after Hale was decidedly not coming back) and Rambis' name was already getting tossed around then.

Yep kind of sad that him and Nash are on the same team, that has very little chance of winning the championship.

They never put anyone good around him. Dare I say what he did in 96 was Lebronesque. 54 wins (3rd/4th in division lol) with a terrible team and terrible coach. Their move to keep him was to get Jerry fucking Stackhouse, who avged 30ppg on 40% shooting. SWEET!

a terrible team? they had an AWESOME guard lineup, and overall not too bad.

a still efficient/good Joe Dumars, Lindsey Hunter (whoa great backup PG), Grant Hill (beastly), Theo Ratliff was young and actually good at the time... and then some fairly decent role players for the time, it's not like that team was a bunch of scrubs

Theo was a rookie and not very good, and while Lindsay makes a good backup PG, he was the starting PG on that team getting like 35 mpg. That's why Hill turned into a point-forward and basically had to run each possession.

Otis Thorpe was the only other good player on that team, league leader in personal fouls.

you're saying Joe Dumars and Lindsey Hunter sucked? I don't get it.... Theo wasn't a rookie, it was his 2nd year, and uh he was a pretty strong defensive presence at the time...

Dumars was in the last few years of his career, but he was a defensive beast, as was Lindsey Hunter. it was a pretty strong team, nothing special, but definitely not TERRIBLE

Dumars wasn't a defensive beast anymore. He was too slow at that point and he wasn't even shooting well. Theo was like half a Birdman, and their starting PG, who shot 40%, averaged 1.9 apg. Their bench was Michael Curry (terrible), Grant Long (god awful) and Aaron Mckie (decent for one season.)

So I'm pretty sure you never watched them because it was the Grant Hill show and nothing else.

Theo Ratliff didn't become a monster until he got to Philly, but Eric Snow fucked that entire team up
