..

I think Van Gundy would have stayed. His family is in central Florida. His kids go to school there. I think he really didnt want to leave.

Otis and Stan were tied at the hip. When Otis was fired (and we all wanted him fired), Stan was going to be replaced by the new GM. That's what new GMs do (or eventually do).

It's so funny... Otis went from Magic GM to HC of the Piston's D-League team. Now THAT is funny.

inflamed? more like engorged.

I'm sure all the publicity from the media and negativity from sports casts like Shaq had a big hand to play in Stan's departure.

I love that Van Gundy is experiencing success, I don't think he was the right fit for this team though.

Bianchi is not a good writer, or journalist for that matter. I grew up reading the drivel of a bitter man who didn't like his local sports team.

I think Mike Bianchi and myself have a different definition of what success is.

Bianchi's little segment on the radio in the morning is easier to listen to than the shot doctor but thats not saying much. I dont like the guy 98% of the time

The shot doctor... wow that guy is unbearable to listen to. I don't know how such a petty terrible person became a personality on the radio.
