Around SBN: Explaining Jeremy Lin's Early, Surprising Success

Can I change my mind on the JRich trade? I hope there's more to this story -- like he was rushing home to get to his seriously injuried wife.

Whoops...

Ha…beat me to it. I hadn’t seen anything on the story when I started my fanpost but got distracted at work, I guess I was too slow!

I'm sure

he was deeply absorbed in thoughts of what he can do to make the team better. That or he was hauling ass to get out of town before Sarver and Kerr noticed he was gone.

Nash for GM?

If the Suns want to save money, here’s a suggestion:

1. Fire Kerr
2. Promote Nash to player/GM

Think he might have been onto something with that (over)reaction to the Richardson trade?

I wanted to trade him after the DUI

So I think ya’lls reaction is silly.
 “DUI – that’s just a mistake, but going 90? KILL HIM!”
I don’t support J-Rich’s actions – I loved that Jerry used to ship players out with these problems. But you all should not be acting like this crosses some line that DRIVING DRUNK did not. This blog is getting way to reactionairy.
One last thing- and this doesn’t excuse J-Rich completely – Ya’ll forget the scottsdale’s polices’ reputation? I was ticketed once – was going 5 over and they called it twenty – Im not exaggerating at all. SPD sucks, hard.

nobody said kill him

and it wasn’t just speeding — he had his 3-year unrestrained in the back seat.

you can argue about which is worse, but both actions are irresponsible.

fool me once, shame on you. fool me twice and we call for a trade

Mmmmm ... Guinness

Told peeps the trade was a MISTAKE with a capital M when it happened.

And now this? What a DOUCHEBAG. If Colangelo was here, Rich would have been gone like yesterday. Ship him out, there’s no need to have this guy endangering the Phoenix community by driving like a maniac in the streets.

Steve Nash, the league's MVP, is a longhaired Canadian who spoke out against the war in Iraq and reads The Communist Manifesto. Quentin Richardson declared after a game-winning shot that it "was like Hamlet. It was a suspense thriller, and I killed them at the end." Amare Stoudemire, when asked to comment on a 22-point third quarter against the Kings, said, "I've got a tendency to jump over some guys' heads and throw it down."

Don’t forget the domestic violence conviction

3 strikes

I’m usually good for letting one indiscretion go by. Two, maybe more, if they happened a long time ago. But this?

Mmmmm ... Guinness

What burns me up is this cop.

You catch someone driving 27 over but you just watch it and follow. You wait until you can catch him in some primo shit doing 90 in a 30.

Where’s the flippin public safety in that? If someone had gotten hurt, I would sue the ass off that cop and Snottsdale PD for not addressing the issue with JRich was criminally speeding at 27 over.

My Orange Jersey

I got a Richardson jersey for Christmas — before the DUI came out and before he left Mason open.

Now, Steve Kerr sent me a text message saying he’s been suspended w/o pay for the Clips game.

I’ve yet to wear the jersey to a game. Would it be wrong to do so now? Maybe I’ll wear the free Amare/RoomStore jersey I got last year to show support for the no-trade fan contingent.

Mmmmm ... Guinness
