Colangelo's Ten Commandments 

Post#1 » by supersub15 » Wed May 26, 2010 1:15 pm

I came up with the first 5. Please add yours. We need 5 more, or an improvement on the 5 below... :D

1. Thou shall not play defence!
2. Thou shall play finesse ball!
3. Thou shall not be rewarded for hard work!
4. Thou shall be given a vacation from playing 2 weeks of basketball with thy country (thou must be tired)!
5. Thou shall be rewarded handsomely for being able to shoot the ball!

Fire away!

6. Thou shalt be traded after no less than four months and no more than one year tenure with the team. If thou art not traded during that period, it is not for lack of effort.

8. Thou shalt properly groom thyself into game shape by attending nightclubs and gorging thyself upon numerous pizza slices late into the evening. (also acts as the perfect influenza remedy)
