Brown's interesting opinions

[dav7z]

Brown seems concerned about ownership. He all so seems to want MJ around more . He all so hinted he would like MJ two buy control in the team.

Brown all so said he wanted Alexis to try and become more coachable . And said he made a mistake last year not playing him more.

Brown all so said Nazz is out to prove to all he should played more last . It seems hes working out with a mission to force more playing time.

Thoughts on the main point of this artical??

If Nazr gets the minutes I think he'd be worth the contract...and I definitely think we can use him. You have to appreciate a veteran like him trying to get better like that.

Ajinca. Still holding on to ILBIT. I'm not as high on him as some...but my faith in LB is still strong.

[millst2]

Yea, I am not as big on AA as some either but if he can contribute I would be all for it. I think in the draft we just try and get a couple of backup positions and keep the team as it is. I think Nazr can play but I would not be against a trade moving him. I honestly would rather get rid of him and keep Diop and use the roster spot for a backup SG.

http://blogs.charlotte.com/inside_the_nba/2009/06/new-owners-would-make-brown-anxious.html In regards to Bonnell's blog before this one: I love Stern! I used to really dislike the bastard, but he's grown on me over the years.

I don't blame him for being anxious over the new ownership if MJ isn't a significant part of it...like he says, he's the reason he decided to coach here, and if MJ goes, he's left out in the wind. I just wish Stern would step in faciliate/coerse/demand Bob sell at a reasonable price to MJ and his group and get it over with already.

I might shoulder some of the blame with Lexy. Each time I talked with him last year, I would always ask him why he didn't play more, and tell him he deserved more PT, when he was out there, he always produced, etc. And each time I talked, you could see the frustration/exasperation mounting week to week. Maybe I incited Lexy...Still, he did deserved more PT, and if Larry wasn't going to give it to him here, he should've been NBDL bound earlier than March or whenever it was.


Great to see Nazr not content just getting a paycheck and riding off into the sunset like some vets. Only good can come from this.

I have to say Bonnell's growing on me, finally doing some real reporting.

On LB - I understand 100%. He's probably begging MJ to buy the team. And he could walk if MJ's gone.

On Lexy - This is youthful arrogance, and he'll come around.

On the Wizard of Naz - Go Nazzy! Please get out there!

On AI - Hmmm....maybe maybe not. I don't know if that's his way of telling AI no or not.

I think the best thing for us (the fans) is if Mj buys the team...I'm glad Nazzy wants time and is putting in the work to get it...AA (who is at least a 2-3yr project) is still a 2-3yr project...

Good move Teej...:biggrin:

If Nazz is taking the summer this serious he's going to force Brown to let him play .
Hes going to log mins for some one us or another team .
Hes busting his tail and is in the best shape of his life .
I got a feeling we see a different Nazz this season ?

Um, anytime Nazzy has played, he's been effective. Just look at when the Ham Biscuit was here.

[spectre]

No one wants to become an afterthought...and once we traded for Gana that's exactly what happened. I don't blame LB for wanting to acclimate his new guy, but by doing so he made Nazr not worth his deal.

Under the Idiot he was wanted and he showed enthusiasm. Hopefully we'll see that once again.

Jordan should be more involved. As far as Lexy he is not at all coachable players try to tell him things he is doing wrong on the court and in practice and his response is f#ck you man I got it (what kinds of sh#t is that) He also got knocked out by a fellow d-league teammate before they came back in the locker room over the same mess.

[GOBOBCATS24]

I think all of us will agree that Nazr is a much much much much much much much much much better player than Gana Diop is. when we got Diop i was so excited. and then i saw him play.

HAHA ROFL. That was good.

And so true.

He and Sean are on the same level now, or soon will be.

Huh? Clue me in on that story. I didn't hear about that one.

^ that, up there, is slander, dear sir. I demand proof.

He lives in Texas, man. He doesn't know shit about anyone but DJ. Especially not LB or Jordan.

to anyone in Texas, this isn't an insult to you. I'm just saying toot claims inside information he has no way of knowing.

[Dead_Real]

I never understood why Lex was rotting on the bench instead of going to the NBDL & I still think with burn he would have been more productive than Diop (Who is horrible imo). As far as his development I'm not worried the talent is their biggest thing is his weight I'm still very high on him.

Glad to hear Brown wants MJ involved more just like the fans do. I enjoyed seeing him at the games last year/working out with the roster etc.

I want MJ as the owner even if his draft selections have been dodgy, if LB want's him we all want him.

I believe once the smoke clears, MJ will have controlling interest. He may have more investors and it may take a while before Bob decides to come off the over $300 millon price tag, but MJ will hold the cards. I also think Stern will (if he hasn't already) stick his nose in to facilitate such a deal.

Sounds like someone told Nazi that he's not going anywhere with that contract, so he's going to try to force LB's hand. I gotta say, I respect that. Instead of being a discraction, he's trying to prove his worth. Good job there.

[Ghost Kat]

Ya'll are funny. Half of you were complaining about what MJ has done with this team before they hired LB. Comapling about his draft paicks, talking about how he ruined the wizards. I read people saying he was a great player but a horrible manager....Now... Everyone wants him to own the team. Personally I always like having MJ as a major part of this team. I didn't see a problem with his draft picks. Even Kwame Brown. It's not MJ's fault the scouting report on Brown was over hyped. If MJ didn't pick him someone other sucker would have. Same with Morrison.

MJ needs to get ownership of this team. Bob Johnson was a shameful excuse for a owner. Hopefully if MJ owns the team he'll still sit on the sidelines behind the team and yell at the ref's. He high fives the players when they come off the floor. Talks to them while they sit on the bench. Thats the type of majority owner we need. Not a Mark Cuban type but a real player/coach.

[110oldeast]

Some may say that I am too much of a conspiracy theorist, but IMO it was ALWAYS about Michael eventually owning the team. Bob had the ability to pull it off initially (unlike 99.9% of folks out there) and likely hoped to make a little change/break even while MJ was able to line himself up to take it off his hands.

Then again, I also believe Sam Vincent was a one year mercenary brought in to stall for LB to convince Shelley to give her blessing to coaching here. If he won big, MJ looks like a genius. If he loses, he's easy to fire and scapegoat as he has no track record to give him the benefit of the doubt for another year if LB is ready to come aboard.

The only question with MJ's ownership IMO is if MJ was planning to take it all on right now and what kind of financial shape he sees himself in.

[spectre]

and Johnson trying to rip him off (as reports have said he wants a LOT more than his shares are worth).

Totally agreed. IMO one of Johnson's prime reasons for getting into this was to get Jordan in business with him.

[GoBobs]

go Lexy go!
