I'm not sure what that means. Parole always comes with risks. Releasing people after they serve their full sentence comes with risks. Life comes with risks.

  some people die, some people live, some people get raped, some people only get a flesh wound...oh well

  we can do better

I mean, hard to trash Middleton after the series he just played.  It also is a nice thought...if Khris was eligible to be traded last offseason.

Also, Doc isn't a good coach, but they didn't fire 2 coaches and sign a guy to a 4 year contract to pay a 4th coach all at once.  And his winning percentage is certainly not what you'd point to to prove Doc isn't a good coach.  That winning percentage is good for 36th best ever, and that includes guys like Joe Prunty, Adrian Griffin, and 14 other guys who coached 3 or fewer years in the NBA.  It's the 6th best of any active coach, ahead of Erik Spoelstra.

  his playoff record is 113-108, but he does have a ring.  he seems like he has been given the reins of pretty decent teams with most of the pieces in place however.  not sure if he's ever been tasked to build a team like San Antonio or Minnesota for example.

  4 year contract is probably the going rate looking at 2 previous coaches with tire tracks across their bodies in less than a full season.  budenholzer had a 70% reg. season record, 60% in the playoffs and is road kill, Adrian was hand picked by, ahem, the freak himself

   as I said, nothing against doc, but he seems to be an expensive "plug-in" or next best up on the list.  he just dsesn't seem to have the enthusiasm or fire in his belly to push a team to be better. 

 what coach could stand up to Giannis with respect, yet tell him to quit beating the chit out of his body going to the hole.  Gianni's needs to learn how to pick his fights a little better so maybe he's around for the post season which is the real season

  coming from you? dumb analogy? somehow makes me think it hits home


 you guys never having to be held responsible for your multiple dumb ass decisions is why this world is so f'd up

I don't think it is reasonable to hold a governor responsible for the actions of everyone released on parole during their administration.

We’ll agree to disagree. Brew doesn’t just (wrongly) think Crean deserved credit, he thinks the fact that they (as last resorts) started proves he deserves credit. To me that’s pretzel logic.

Also, the landscape is much different today than it was 15 years ago. A lot more progress can be made before the start of year 2 today than was possible then.

Crean recruited them. That's the point and that's not in debate. Your argument is nonsensical and wholly without merit. It's embarrassing even for a Scoop Take.
