Funny.... I just rewatched this one: So... inconsistency. Jim doesn't open his mouth in press. Has been the boss for 10 years now. As the boss, had some success and some failure. I would argue he is doing better than most owners in the league. But no, 3 years of futility and all of the sudden he is the worst. Now, I am, too, think he could have been a bit smarter (what with his bar and Chaz stuff), but it seems that he, at the very least, doesn't interfere with Mitch's job. Something I wish I could say about his sister.
I hope they're watching because I think we are going to shock and amaze with this Hoosiers like spirit and story we're going to have going this year. (sans title or probably getting past the first round of the playoffs) Yeah baby we're getting in. Our Big Man rotation is going to wreak havoc on all the weany small ball teams that play mostly small ball because they don't have good Big men. And we shirley can play some Bully, no less, Small Ball too whenever needed. That's just the 5 position, on top of all the REST of the talent we have and what's going to be happening. I'm not the only person here thinking this I know, regarding hitting the playoffs this year but also know we are in the minority. No sweat. Anyway it feels good ..... just keep holding them.
Bro, I was there. That video doesn't do it justice. They showed him on the big screen scoreboard twice and the crowd.let him have it. It was loud and honestly, awkward. Also, you know how it sounds like the crowd is booing, but really screaming "Luke" ? It's the same with Zubac.
This is not his make or break year. He has a string of broken years. This is his last year regardless. If he had any dignity he would resign already. And what a juvenile moment for him to throw his arms in the air when he was being booed. How can anybody take this guy seriously.
I would boo him for the past couple off seasons, not this one though. Unfortunately it took him to the 3rd year to realize what he should have been doing at the 1st year of his self proposed deadline.
i actually saw him playing along as the villain to be pretty funny. I don't blame him at all. I get the hate on Jim, but they were booing him at a SL game where all of our young draft picks were killing it. He deserves blame for his failures, but i found it quite ironic that he was getting booed at a summer league game.
HUGE. A little slower than the others on the court, but his strength is NBA ready. He wasn't backing down and definitely puts his body on people fighting for rebounds. I was pleased with what I saw.
I would have cheered him. He's got me in a good mood by finally firing Byron, hiring Luke, drafting 2 amazing prospects, and making some solid FA moves.
Wasn't a fan of the booing. They were screaming like crazy first time Ingram touched the ball and for every good Laker play, for Russ, Zubac, and chanting Larry's name, yet booing the man in charge of the group that drafted all these players.
Not giving much credit for the two amazing prospects if you are talking about the #2 picks. That happened by fielding a terrible team the prior years, so they were there by default. And many think that Portzingus would have been the better pick in that draft at #2. Their second round picks have shown comptency, Though I thought people were giving little West and younger Buss credit for that.
