It's easy to take the glory for yourself. The great ones are unselfish. It's easy to be confident when your position looks good. The great ones stay confident when their position looks doubtful. It's easy to put up individual stats. The great ones make those around them better. It's easy to challenge yourself. The great ones challenge others. They bring out the best in those they criticize. It's easy to do things the usual way. The great ones think outside the box. They do the unusual, the counterintuitive, the incomprehensible. One man has done it all this year. He has confidently done the incomprehensible. He has given us so much for so little. He has provoked a great player to produce his greatest season ever. He has used his position to make those around him better -- not the players around him, but the teams around him. I speak, of course, of John Weisbrod. So unselfish. So incomprehensible. So confident. So instrumental. When we hoist that trophy, Johnny Boy, this one's for you.
Let's not jump the gun.... Johnny hasn't won a championship for us yet. The greatest always take it to another level, and he just hasn't done that yet. Just empty potential right now. If we win it all this year, or he delivers Dwight Howard.... then I'm on the bandwagon.
John Weisbrod deserves to be congratulated for helping to rebuild and reshape this once troubled franchise. If we win it all, he deserves a championship ring.
Yeah, I don't know, Will. He started out this season great, what with the T-Mac trade and letting other teams have the two best rookies this year. And then he had a nice assist to Sacramento early on in the year. But then he got very selfish at the trade deadline by keeping Dwight Howard for himself when there are plenty of other teams that could make better use of him. That's not being a team player. That selfish reputation could follow him around in his career. I almost feel sorry for the man.
Yes, thanks, indeed, Weisass, soon to be former GM. No talk of hoisting trophies, though, do not jink a certain team.
What I love him the most is his inspirational challenge to make TMac so great. Oh, and I'm sure Miami fans are naming Kobe the MVP.
Oh. Excellent point. I forgot about Kobe. We might have to have co-MVPs this year. And I don't see how Weisbrod could beat out Dan Gilbert next season if LeBron James demands out.
