    LOL, I didn't look at it long enough for it to change. Thought it was just an image, not a gif.

    My first thought when I saw this thread - April Fools

    Edit: I had clicked the spoiler tab but didn't wait the 2 seconds for the April Fools to come up before clicking reply. Just shows how crazy of a statement this is

    He must have gotten into Phil Jackson's peyote stash left hidden in Staples.

    To Sirron this is the perfect day
    Try to get us all in some way
    Using B0ron Scott as a tool
    As a punchline on April Fools

    Lol. Come on guys, it's April 1st, sirron posts a thread, the premise is ridiculous, you know what it was from post 1. If sirron got you with this one it's shame on you, cuz "fool me once, shame on me, fool me twice...". He used non Twitter font for the Oram Twitter post, then the same font for the Broussard picture. I'm cracking up here though.

    Dang Weezy, what did I ever do to you? :p

    I quickly quoted everybody so it was undeniable LOL :)

    But the only reason this even slightly flew
    Was because of byron's massive ego
    That everyone knew
    Know what I'm sayin' - amigo?

    :IrelandPump:

    Happy 1st everyone. Hope you were able to get at least one person today for April Fool's Day!

    LOL, yeah its Sirron so we should expect it. But, what's sad is its plausible enough to pass as something Byron would say.

    Well either way he suckered the FO into thinking he IS special and a def specialist is what he claims to be so let's look at just how special his defense is, his teams def rankings per basketballreference.com:

    '00-'01 - 25th - NJN
    '01-'02 - 5th - NJN (J Kidd squad that got swept by LAL in finals)
    '02-'03 - 4th - NJN (J Kidd squad 2-4 vs SAS in finals)
    '03-'04 - 10th - NJN Fired during the season
    '04-'05 - 29th - NOH
    '05-'06 - 24th - NOH
    '06-'07 - 17th - NOK
    '07-'08 - 5th - NOH COTY award - poor NOH gave him a 2-year extension- 2nd round of playoffs
    '08-'09 - 9th - NOH
    '09-'10 - 17th - NOH Fired during the season
    '10-'11 - 26th - CLE
    '11-'12 - 29th - CLE
    '12-'13 - 27th - CLE Fired
    '13-'14 - N/A - spent year creating the man-up defense.
    '14-'15 - 27th - LAL
    '15-'16 - 30th - LAL currently last and not likely to change in a couple games


    His average team defense rank is: 19th. A good half of these seasons played in the weak eastern conference.

    I would actually put forth this theory, that BS is the all-time worst-ranked NBA coach in team defensive rankings with coaches above 1000 games.

    A top 5 all-time def coach has definitely led the league in def ranking. No doubt. This man is a complete buffoon and a total fraud.

    Someone should sell Jim Buss some swamp land, the man is a sucker-extraordinaire, complete opposite of Pops.
