That's a joke. Why were the Lakers putting up 3's after 3's with 5 minutes left in the game and only down by 10? For the people who thinks that Jackass is a great coach and for those who thought Rudy can't coach, why do they both have the same strategy in the last minutes of the game? My answer? I think it's the players. The coach can preach all they want, but if the players don't run the plays... I do think the coach have some responsibilities, maybe the coach should pull the offending players out of the lineup, but when it's MJ2 & Rice putting up those shots, it is difficult to do that. Although I don't blame Jackass for Lakers ridiculous display in the last minutes of the game yesterday, I still think he is an overrated coach.
I think Jackass is a terrible coach. He should be fired. Seriously though, he did try to get the Lakers to go inside- they had the mike turned on during the timeouts. By the way, did anyone else here get a thrill out of hearing Scottie tell off Phil? David Aldridge said Scottie just told him "F___ you, Phil!". I know it's bad sportsmanship, but I loved it cause that's exactly what Jackass deserves. ------------------ [This message has been edited by The Cat (edited May 31, 2000).]
I really don't care about Phil Jackson one way or the other. The players blew that game. I was really suprised that Phil stuck around to watch them lose it. If that were me I would have had the ref "T" me up and toss me just to make a point with the players...if they want to play their own way they can, but they will also see the result. If the Lakers had followed his intructions Phil so clearly made, we wouldn't have to watch that a$$hole Pippen continue to be the c@ck he is. Did he really say that to Phil?? Just goes to show you what a piece of doggie doo Scottie is!! ------------------ We need some meat in the post!
Bob Costas said that "Pippen and Jackson exchanged words" after the game. Then, on Sportscenter this morning, David Aldridge said that in response to a comment made to Pip by Jackson saying Scottie should have been suspended, Scottie said "Bleep you Phil." You can pretty much fill in the blank. ------------------
I hate Scottie as much as the next person, but I dont want the freakin Fakers to win the title. Jackson is a little b**** who just waited for the LA job to open up. That way he wouldnt have to take the NJ job. Now everyone is talking about his ass again. Then there is the the Big Aristotle, and the MJ wannbe (that fool needs a haircut big time. God I hate the Fakers almost as much as the Jazzholes. As for hating Pippen, its exactly like hating Maxwell. Max turned on Clyde, Pippen turned on Charles. They both quit on our team. But I bet no one would be against Max if he was beating up on the Fakers or Jazzholes in the playoffs. Im not in love with Pippen or anything (I hope NY wins the whole thing). Its just that we all know he is a p***y, and he knows it, everyone knows it, so why keep on booing for him. Well anyways what im trying to say is "Someone please beat the damn Fakers" I know I said I want NY to win, but it would be hilarious if Port, and Ind made it to the finals. David Stern and all the NBC people would be fu!ked. ------------------ Now introducing the starting lineup for your Houston Rockets: Starting at Center, from Wake Forets TIM DUNCAN...
