Joakin NOOOOOOOah 

Post#1 » by W. Unseld » Fri Jun 24, 2016 8:20 pm

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO:
Wiz set to offer Joakim Noah the max, coming off of shoulder surgery and headed to his declining years in athleticism. The good news is he shoots about 38% from the floor.

Everyone is reporting on that one article. I'm still not convinced this is real.

President Donald Trump referred to African countries, Haiti and El Salvador as "shithole" nations during a meeting Thursday and asked why the U.S. can't have more immigrants from Norway.

I don't like multiple threads but I seriously think this one needs to be more prominent just in case anyone from the Wiz are monitoring at all b/c this is GOD AWFUL and they need to know that this will tick off the VAST MAJORITY of their fans.

I don't think they really care about pissing off their fans.

We had a thread on here once about who we DIDNT want to draft with the 6th pick in 2011. Vesely was the poll leader by far so naturally he was the pick.

But do not forget the amazingly sucky Juan Dixon thread. I never thought that Dixon was sucky but clearly people read this stuff. I see your point but it cannot hurt to try.

Please don't let it be true :banghead: : A false report...please. :pray:

Throw a max contract at a player in decline. What a championship-winning strategy!

I am in shock that people believe this. And I've seen it posted on 2/3 boards already. The source doesn't look credible at all. Noah was terrible last season and is 31 --- his market value will be nowhere near his max. And on top of that the Wizards have Gortat who they extended not too long ago. Still... people believe this. I must be missing something... :lol:

Correct. You are definitely missing something. I think this is bogus but if you knew the track record of our GM you would understand. 13 years grunfeld has had the job and 46 wins is the best we have done during his tenure.

You guys are my worst enemy since you embarrassed the Raps in the playoffs last year. But even I wouldn't wish this contract on you.
I hate pineapples.

Why are people so shocked, this is Ernie after all. The article nails all of the key points of being "Grunfelded"

* "Washington is panicking"
* They'll overpay for Noah - they always do

BINGO! Heading into the off-season, we all KNEW someone was going to receive Ernie's panic money, it's just a matter of who. Ted and Ernie are PATHETIC!!!

Terdie - a portmanteau of Ted and Ernie. Kind of like Brexit.

It would be the worst signing in sports history by a mile, It makes no sense what so ever. Seems very very fake...
