I'm one of the oldest members, since 2000. The site was much less contentious in those days. Not many of the old guard are still here. I was write4u as some of you probably know. I'm getting a bit jaded over the years. When Jerry left and Deron was traded, things went downhill. It would've been great if they had hired Quin back then and not traded Deron. I think this would've stabilized the franchise. Jerry did need to go though, he was very resistant to the changes going on in the game. He actually refused to guard the 3-point line, preferring to pack in the paint, and didn't approve of alley-oops.
