You're kidding yourself if you don't think he'll get another GM job.

Enlarge and read the headlines lol

I heard a number of people sent this video to MLSE employees, but I doubt it does much good, given that the Raps have won 5 of 6 since it was posted on Youtube.

It's a decently made video. Good fire BC propaganda. I hope he posts a part 2 around the trade deadline.

Agreed.

Like any good politician he'll deflect blame, make a while slew of new promises and someone else will buy in.

There are far worse GM's in the league. And he has a good reputation for drafting, his name and let's face it everyone in the NBA knows what kind of obstacles there are being the GM in Toronto. The man is far from incompetent.

Imagine if we've actually landed Nash then he got injured... :cookie:

The chances of history repeating in 2 different cities are slim. So no I can't imagine.

We landed Lowry.

Nash played last night. Where was Kyle?

In fact, how many more games has Lowry played than Nash?

Lowry - 16

Nash - 3.......


Even if they both played the entire season, I'd still take Lowry.

Age, Defence, Toughness - Lowry > Nash

We already have a Nash light in Calderon.

I never heard anything about this until BC became the GM.

Funny how that works.

Winning cures all... regardless of where your franchise it located.

calderon, derozan,amir, and davis have been the most consistent

Well, NBADraft.net currently has OKC with the 6th pick drafting Marcus Smart, who's player comparison is none other than James Harden. :cookie:

nbadraftexpress > nbadraft.net

Nbadraftexpress has Smart at 22nd. Also, nbadraftexpress waits for a while to make comparisons. A thing I especially dislike about nbadraft.net is when it has comparisons to retired players.

Also, nbadraft.net doesn't have Kabongo

Either way, it seems that most of the good prospects in this draft are either SGs or Centers (i.e. OKC's two weakest positions) seems shady to me :cookie:

And what's wrong with comparing to a retired player? If they think Wiggins is going to be Pippen, why should they not say that?

No doubt it is time for a change.

Well, it seems like most people here don't wanna make a change, all they want is Jose and Bargs out and I say, it's time for a change, and I mean BC and the front office. duh!

Seems Butch Carter thinks Colangelo should stay.

How has no one posted in this thread in 2013? The one positive of this loss is BC wont be back if we dont make the playoffs.

Honestly, everyone needs to take a step back and look at the big picture. Would you rather we make the playoffs and keep our pick and retain BC as a general manager, or not make the playoffs, lose our pick which will be in the 10-14 range(likely) instead of possibly losing a high lotto pick in the future, and finally rid this franchise of a big cancer in BC(and Casey+Bargnani)?

This franchise needs to clean house this offseason, and BC needs to be the first to go.
