i dont blindly hate on Jim Buss but come on... he did not plan on us tanking and getting the #2 pick


He hired Byron Scott didn't he?

He was hoping for #1 pick though since that's what Byron netted the Cavs...

Sorry, I'm not giving praise to something he was already supposed to do. Draft BPA and trade for assets.

OK, he did help us get the #2 pick, which means he has been an excellent failure. If he (bleep) up drafting, he'll elevate his game to Dolan-like heights, making him an outstanding failure.

Any ownership that signs off on bidding 3.5million for Boozer and paying Hill $9,000,000 deserves to have a lot of questions asked.


$3.5 mil is cheap for the service that Boozer provides.

$9 mil is trade bait that may or may not work still.. and it's a team option and we needed to meet the league min salary.. makes sense.


Those two guys delivered a lot of quality losses, preserved cap room going forward, and Boozer was actually helpful to Clarkson's development offensively.

Jim Buss has been so impressed with a couple of players who performed well in this years playoffs, that we might see some trades in the off season. Rumor has it that Jim wants to ship Clarkson and the #2 pick to Houston for Dwight Howard. He would also like to send Randle plus a future 1st rounder to Chicago for Pau Gasol. DO IT JIM!
