im putting my money on next monday. this franchise is a joke. rich devos is a joke. his family is a joke. do they even know that they own a professional basketball team? they have had 3 finalists for 3 weeks now. 3 weeks. and they still cant decide??? wtf is the problem? a blind and deaf man would have made a good choice by now... we are 8 days away from the draft, because whoever is hired, if it happened today, couldn't start planning for the draft today, and maybe not even tomorrow... so we are in effect giving him no more than a week to get ready for the draft, while other teams have had months.

seriously, eff you rich devos

I don't think Rich is a joke, but seriously, what the hell is this organization doing?!?!

True.

I wonder (hope) if the delay has to do with that we want to get the OKC guy, but won't be announced until the Finals are over with.

Plus - at least 2 of GMs are with a team currently, so they are not coming in fresh/blind into the draft.

Typical nonsense being spewed. And before you say it, I come here for the lawlz.

While I agree the GM hunt is taking forever. These candidates have jobs currently, and part of that job is to scout prospects for the draft. They're not going to get hired Friday and not have a single clue about who to draft.

I mean seriously? Who here isn't still in 3rd grade?

With an immature insult like that I would think you're the only one here that is in the 3rd grade. . .

Bower hasn't had an NBA job in TWO YEARS. So theres that....

That's what I'm hoping for. It sucks that the Thunder couldn't sweep the Heat. :lol:

It is official: LeBron James thinks Ibaka is Stupid...

ESPN NBA - LeBron James on Serge Ibaka criticizing his defense: "I don't really care what he says, he's stupid"

What an awful slow day...

I think Skin was referring to that it is sad that the only Magic news is the ones we are creating
Reporter - How do you feel about your first triple double?
