DanA_TBDP 12 Report post Posted May 24, 2012 Its inaccurate. Just read the article. He says last weekend they decided to fire Stan and Otis. Otis wasn't let go until Monday when he decided to resign, not get fired by owners. Plus Dwight hasn't let Orlando know anything new Exactly, Otis wasn't fired and Stan's decision had been made months ago (still stand by that). There isn't a single thing Sheridan got correct in his piece. It's gross that CBS is even giving it attention. +1 to ESPiN for knowing what a BS artist Sheridan is. Oh, and Sheridan's last job? Working for ESPiN New York. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AddiFB 429 Report post Posted May 24, 2012 I don't know why, but I'm pretty calm and relaxed now. I don't know why, maybe it's because I know Otis is gone and there's a search going on for a new GM and a new voice to be heard on the bench... Some part of me believes we're headed in the right direction, but we're all so sceptical and expect the worst to happen. I'm starting to think we might have a good outcome this time around. Am I being blinded by homerism? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

freerun 2 Report post Posted May 25, 2012 alex may not know much about basketball but he handled the stan and otis situation very well. he kept dwight out of the line of fire and saved face for the franchise. i like the spot we are in and where we are headed and i think dwight will buy in.

Stu Bronsilino 313 Report post Posted May 25, 2012 i feel better about the situation regardless of dwight because hopefully we'll hire some competent people into this franchise with the stakes being so high. and whether he leaves or not we'll hopefully have legit front office staff now and hopefully a decent coach. so really i'm more worried about who our gm/prez will be and the coach and hope they handle dwight, stay or trade, the best way anyhow. ...I say that, but watch we'll hire foyle and d'antoni :svgsad: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bauncey Chillups 288 Report post Posted May 25, 2012 How can anything have been decided regarding Dwight when the team doesn't even have a GM or coach? Moreover, there's nothing beyond hack journalists indicating anything concrete about whether Dwight's staying or leaving. I'd venture to guess it's 50/50 with the firing of SVG perhaps tipping the scales towards him staying at the moment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A Better DJ & Photographer 461 Report post Posted May 25, 2012 and if we have a limo waiting outside the game to take Shaw to the airport we could have a GM by the time we all wake up! Not my 1st choice but definitely available. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arielle 138 Report post Posted May 25, 2012 and if we have a limo waiting outside the game to take Shaw to the airport we could have a GM by the time we all wake up! Not my 1st choice but definitely available. If Shaw is targeted, more reasons for Dwight to stay. Shaw's a personal request by Dwight. Bring him on! I'll pay for that limo right now, where is it?
