    This is a pretty hilarious read even if it's Dwyer.

    Read that earlier today, got a good laugh. Maybe that's what Shaw should've done with the players cell phones.

    I wonder how Magic would've faired coaching a team that didn't have to rely on younger players that he couldn't get through to/connect with.

    Johnson had Riley's mentality...during the playoffs or when the team was not focusing ALL distractions [even wives, family and friends] during practice or "peripheral opponents" [the media] were tuned out. I remember that incident. Then there was the Van Exel incident...
