Can you say Dallas Cowboys? 

Post#1 » by TXSun » Tue Feb 17, 2009 3:52 am

Have we turned into the Dallas Cowboys of the NBA (minus the 'ships).? Here are a few reasons why everyone seems to thinks so...
1. Our coach is/was a joke, noone respects him (now he's out)
2. We have a disgrunted lockerroom
3. We have players that have egos greater than TOs & PacMan Jones
4. We have a "stunning" line-up yet we find ways to keep losing games
5. We seem to make headlines every week (players, coaches, owners, GM, trades, arrests, etc.)
6. We have law-breakers in our team
7. We are currently out of the playoffs
8. Our owner is the laughing-stock of the NBA
9. ?


As much as it hurts to admit it, Our PHX situation is beyond pathetic, it's flat-out shameful at this point. Don't know how else to put it. Start winning games and that might help, but for now it is what it is....it's a SHAME!!

there are some egos in our locker room but I don't think anyone on our team has an ego like T.O., he is in a class of his own.

And I wouldn't classify Jerry Jones as a laughing stock, eccentric and unconventional ..yes, hated? definitely. But I don't know many laughing stocks who have 3 rings. Granted he should have fired his boy Wade Phillips this off-season but I wouldn't quite call him a laughing stock yet.

Other than that the argument is a valid one, It seems like we are in the news for something new everyday. Hopefully Gentry will calm the storm.. we'll see.

dont see the point of this thread. OB pointed out he has 3 rings. We have one guy that has broke the law twice. He is a moron yes, but he was not high in some cheep motel walking around naked.

and by the way, egos are in every team man. That is one of the reasons why they ae pro athletes.

This is probably the worst comparison I've ever heard in my life.

Only thing different is that we're title-less and they've won A LOT

And I don't think the criminal one is too accurate, we have one guy who's done two very bad things...you make it sound like we're the old school jail blazers...

I think something like 60% of the NBA has a felony or higher criminal record. Or maybe that was just int he late 1990s.
