Conley Benched

This could be good. Maybe Mike said, “Just start me. I’ll kick Hayward’s knee cap out for you guys.” Or maybe Quin’s doing lines again. Could be some good **** coming.

I would put up $100 it is not the last one mentioned.

My honest guess is that Joe volunteered to move to the bench.

If you’re right (and I also suspect that you are onto something), then, for me, that would be a sign of how Joe is bad for chemistry. Contrary to popular opinion. You can’t salve egos at the expense of winning and be “good for chemistry.” Let’s let winning be the master category over chemistry, eh?

Until further details come I will assume Quin made the right decision... I support him. I think this was a front office, agent, or maybe Joe (why wouldn't he voice that when the met together prior to talking with the whole ****ing team and media).

Just something to file away... Mike's dad is his agent... at the trade deadline there was a statement that Mike didn't want to go to Utah, which originated from his "reps"

He's played like dog **** this year... Quin benches him... he's like **** you I ain't doing that. Agent call front office... and the front office publicly neuters their coach... this could be really really bad. Hope not.

This is one version of bad or another. Do you like your **** sandwich with guacamole or with barbecue sauce. Gotta eat one, so pls choose.

Apparently, Conley knew he was getting benched during the interviews but he was very calm so I suppose he would show some frustration. I find it more likely if FO intervened.

Wouldn't Mike also say... appreciate it Joe, but you've been great... let's try this other arrangement... its what coach wants... one way or another I think Mike was unhappy so Joe wants to help a friend...

This is just something man. I think this may have been a DL "hey we didn't discuss this maybe try a different adjustment... TIA"

I'm gonna wait to skewer DL but if this is the case it is just awful... it would also make a little sense that we didn't get a backup 5 at the deadline because DL is more concerned about how things look for him that performance.
