Jerry “That’s Cute” West???
Posted: Thu Feb 7, 2019 1:09 pm
Jerry’s first two seasons here have seen Ballmer make significant representations that the team is doing one thing, only for January/February to tell a different story.
Example 1: Clipper for Life Blake Griffin.
Example 2: Anti-tank/Full Steam Ahead/ We Ain’t No Sixers....then trade Tobias.
While we can still make the playoffs, I seriously doubt it.
Bigger question. Is this how our FO works?
Jerry tells Ballmer, “LOL, that’s cute but by the deadline we’re gonna have to do this (trade Blake/Tobias) if we’re going to get where we need to be.”
Guess there could be an innocent explanation that we just took in more information and kept an open mind but I doubt it given that this has happened twice and the two directions are so drastically opposed to what Ballmer said to start the years.
