Terrence Ross' rant

[Nilanka]

He seems to think that "real fans" shouldn't criticize....

[JimiCliff]

He didn't make a single good point. He built some straw men and knocked them down, that's all.

[Mack North]

As a wise man once said:

"Shut up! I don't pay you to talk!"

[The Great One]

Sctub

[phez]

the fans were in love with this team throughout the season, you cant complain about that
but when you finish like that, such an embarrassing sweep
what do you expect?

[KeonClark]

Of everybody other than casey and gv, I want ross gone the most. He's basically filler, league average player or worse. He's goood at 3 pointers, but then again so are 60 other wings and 2 guards. He's lost on defense and fragile as fine china.

You know the more I think about this rant the more I think TR should be moved. This goes to character and this is not the type of player I want on our team. TR was DC's pick essentially and if we can cut ties with DC there should be less pressure to keep TR. I wonder if a sign and trade for Middleton on the Bucks might be doable.

Actually, ross was BCs picks. DC doesn't pick players in the draft, otherwise, you'd probably hear "with the 20th overall pick, the raptors select giant rock, from boulder state"

there's been lots of talk that ross was "Casey's guy" at the draft.

Yeah I remember hearing that too. With Casey's ties to the US Northwest, he apparently did a lot of the scouting at Washington.

I still can't believe Hayes might be the third shortest player on the team after Lou and Lowry.

BC went for DC's choice (Ross) after his prime choices Lillard & Barnes were gone and he didn't want to draft Drummond. Despondent.

Scuttlebutt I admit.

...I'm pretty sure this is true. How did I never catch that before? How strong is that man?

Also, I don't have any issue with anything Ross says here. Regardless of its content, I've got no issue with any player, athlete or actor ranting. A lot of direct hate gets issued there way and it overshadows any sense of legitimate or fair criticism. It's also why I don't get people who jump on others for doing that sort of thing; it's kinda hard not to. I know the idea is that they should be above these things, but, at the same time, they're only human.

It's why I honestly think they should blind themselves to social media (although I can also understand if that's hard).

What Ross needs to do is just hit the gym and practice his ass off for next season and be a better version of himself.

You don't get paid millions to be only human though lol

To be fair, he didn't actually use the words "fake fans", those are the words of the person you posted the thread on the main page. Sometimes.... actually a lot of times the things people on this forum post somehow become facts to everyone.
