When you win back-to-back then you can have a place at the table. Until then, you're just squattin' on the land.
How does anybody lose to the Suns in the playoffs?
Or, the Mavs?
Look at the Laker team BEFORE Phil came back, and look at the Laker team now. Can you blame Coach K for turning down THOSE Lakers?
With the talent they have now, there's a much better chance of him accepting an offer to coach a ready-made Laker team next summer. Other than PG, their roster is set for the next 2-3 years.
Had more to do with Kobe than Phil, Dunc. Kobe walking in and reading Buss the riot act was justified. Bryant's mistake was not in tearing the bark off Buss, but, quitting at Phoenix in Game 7 before he tore into him.
That wasn't my point, Cul. I was saying Coach K turned down the Laker job in 2004 because he saw a team that had just shipped off Shaq and lost 2 other starters (Malone and Payton) from the 04 team that lost to Detroit in the Finals. It was basically gonna be the Kobe show, and that wasn't gonna be enough to win. Coach K knew that and respectfully declined the offer to coach the Lakers.
The Laker team of next summer (provded Phil ACTUALLY retires this time) will be a much more attractive team to coach for Coach K, as they talent level and depth is WAY AHEAD of where it was in 2004-2005.
Just saying Coach K was wise to turn them down in 2004, but that doesn't mean he'll turn them down in 2010 if the Lakers offer him the job. I can see him making the jump to the NBA.
Gee, Dunc, I never saw you so reasonable & making sense. Did you have like an enema or, a full body massage?
Multiple times....
15 to 4. Makes you all look a bit puny there in San Antonio.
Let me guess, you're also a Yankees, Notre Dame, and Packers fan.
Does this mean that you never talk trash to a Celtics fan?
What can I say? We're a puny market. The league hates our brand of ball and our star. LA doesn't even have to try. They attract players like flies and have a rich owner. You SHOULD be winning les, and we should win any. Yet, we do.
No, I'm a Cleveland Indians, Alabama Crimson Tide & Cleveland Browns fan from way back.
I talk trash to them all the time, but, they're pretty tame on this Forum...unlike the Spurs Fandom which are weak & puny but fancy themselves some kind of king .
Nothing more pathetic than fans taking claim for championships won by another city.
...or, Dallas shading San Antonio in the state of Texas.
