Chuck, unfortunately, the answer is something that’s both tragic and speaks volumes of Larry’s character. He hasn’t worked much on his jumper cuz of his brother (RIP.) He went to St. Louis over UNC and other top-notch programs to be near his little brother who had a bad heart or something debilitating like that. He spent A TON of time with him and helping with his charities for the cause during the off seasons. When his brother passed away last Playoffs, he missed the ECF and some of the Finals I think. His jumper is BROKE, but that’s a completely understandable reason. That guy is all class…

Jason Williams??? He had 2 or 3 seasons of highlights in Sactown, but disappeared after that…

I agree with Lee’s list – they all had better highlights than Jason Williams. Also Kobe, TMac, Maravich, Hakeem could be added to the list above Williams. These guys had more “how’d he do that” moments.

They could trade for a low post scorer. Hinrich for Brad Miller, straight up. They take Rose, all is good.

@Three Stacks : I’m on board with that, too. This team has a good defensive mentality and needs a coach to unlock them as a “team.” They need a motivator, someone that can actually grow them as a player and Avery is not that guy.

Hell, it’s not like Joakim forgot all the things he did to excel in college, but the strategy needs to focus on their strengths, not what the coach wants them to be to fit into a premade system.

Perhaps, but who’s the “Jordan” on the current Bulls roster. Exactly. There isn’t one. Also, coaching a team with Michael Jordan on it is quite different than your average team. I don’t think it’s fair to judge his future success based on the success (or lack thereof) of that Wizards team. It’s not like he hasn’t learned anything since then. All I’m saying is give the guy a chance before you throw him under the bus.

I mentioned this the other day, but Avery Johnson is pretty much the same coach as Scott Skiles. I doubt management wanted to go down that path again.

@Celts
I was scathing over the hughes statement until I realized how much I yell at the screen while watching dude. LOL!!!
I don’t know why for the love of me, dude won’t work on his jumper!
Cleveland never should have given him all of that money. Just like Chi town shouldn’t have given Wallace all that money.
Dudes work hard when they are just good players when they want that contract money!
