…it’s a weird comment and I really didn’t know how to read it. On one hand, it’s from Grandpa Sid. On the other hand, either McHale misspoke or he’s stepping where he shouldn’t…or, he still has the Reusse conspiracy pull in the front office. It just seems to me that if the Wolves were running a tighter ship in the front office, stuff like this wouldn’t see the light of day. The guy was banished from the front office and Jim Stack’s name should be on the quote.

…that just doesn’t sit right with me. It’s just not his place to do this anymore considering his history. He should have known better. Very unprofessional. All he had to do is give the diplomatic “Mike Miller is a fantastic asset to our team on and off the court and I will enjoy coaching him for as long as I can. As for the trade rumors, you’ll have to talk to Jim about that stuff.”

And I feel like in most circumstances what you’re saying is true. But the fact that McHale has been running the operation for over ten years before being “demoted” a month ago makes this situation completely different. McHale’s comment can’t be used in the context of “nearly every coach” because his situation is so much different than “nearly every coach”.

…for a long haired, pimp-dressing South Dakotan with a penchant for diligently not doing what he supposedly does best.

I’m just saying that his trade value is falling faster than the value of my 201(k) (formerly 401(k))

quote is from? His slump is so bad that I think it’s more than a slump.

“— The Nets are trying to upgrade the small forward position and are offering Bobby Simmons in trade talks. They’ve spoken to the T-Wolves about Miller and the Bulls about Larry Hughes.”
