BullWiz Haters thread

Put together a team built of your least favorite all-time Bullets/Wizards (that you hated when they were on the team, not other team guys that snuck in for a cup of coffee)
PG Rod Strickland -- The Derek Coleman of the franchise
SG Rex Chapman -- low percentage flashy no-D gunners aren't my cup of tea
SF John "hot plate" Williams -- fat lazy supertalents aren't either
PF Chris Webber -- Mr. Softee; may have less trips to the line than any 20ppg big ever
C Charles Jones -- Coaches loved him and he was a class guy from everything I've seen but there had to be SOMEONE out there who was a better center than this (I had no problem with trying out the likes of Ben Coleman, Jahidi White, Ben Wallace, etc. . . who knows, one of them might have turned into a decent player with some PT)
6th man candidates: Ledell Eackles/LaBradford Smith -- was really the same guy you know, they just changed his face and hair style after awhile to pretend they were doing something.
Coach: Billy Cunningham -- ok, you're a genius, fine; but you have no clue about teaching young guys
GM: Bob Ferry -- Yeah, I know Wes was the worst ever no question (except maybe Stepien's stooge in Cleveland); and yeah, I've heard all the John Nash lines but EVERY FRIGGIN YEAR to go and bring in another just past his peak lead shooter to try to make a run at the 8th playoff spot without ever having a serious interest in actually being competitive antagonized me more than blatant stupidity or incompetence.
Thank you for letting me vent.
(oh, and I still liked Susan O'Malley and think she did her job -- she wasn't part of the basketball braintrust, only with filling seats for a perpetually mediocre team)
