Owner's sense of mortality

Generally, older people are considered wiser. But I'm sure you're thinking of Alzheimer's now. I don't know if you want to start a wager on Alzheimer's . . . Or you may prefer some Viagra-based analysis. . . . Then again, I have heard that when people get white hair, they are resentful of people whose hair is not white (Lebron!!). . . . Some say that as people get closer to passing through the pearly gates, they try to surround themselves with angels (Battier!!). WHY did we have to love a team owned by an old dude, instead of like a college dude or something.

 

Didn't the Jazz owner keep sheding contracts until the end of his days?

For a fiction movie your theory would have made an ok plot; reality it's not that simple.

 

You mean, the theory is fictional unless you're a Pistons or Wizard owner. It's a possibility that Les does not want us to rebuild.

 

But, the Rockets are rebuilding.

 

Les has always tried to swing for the fences,age has nothing to do with it. He hopes to get a Yao Ming replacement,despite the difficulties that he faces.

 

On this board it's only considered rebuilding if you dump every player on your team who isn't in their rookie contract.

 

That's still fiction...why would the Wizards rebuild with three all-stars on their team? By some of you guy's logic there should be 25 teams in the NBA rebuilding any given season.

 

I like your thinking because it's how I like to think. But I gotta say you are reaching here.

 

Larry Miller actually died. Knowing his looming mortality, thats why he kept Jerry Sloan and Boozer around. It didnt take until he died for them to let go Boozer for younger options.
