If any of you have seen the Office they have an award ceremony every year giving out awards to their employees. www.youtube.com/watch?v=BIh9GdbHEe8
Christopher Columbus Award- This award is granted to the team with the least amount of direction. They aren't contenders but yet they aren't at the bottom of the league and they somehow manage to find their way to the 8th spot in the playoffs or 40 wins every year. And the winner is......
Dan Basone- Clearly Dan loves to trade away his pick and scramble to put together a 40 win team to screw the person who thinks his pick is worth gold. Sometimes Dan even if he has his own pick will be trying to lose and then go out and break bank to get Chris Kaman to try and win a few more games???
The Horses Rear Award- This award goes to the GM who exhibited the most amount of bonehead moves in trades or lack there of in addition to showing poor judgement in adjusting their DC. And the winner is........
Christian Martinez- Things were starting to turn the corner for the Grizzlies until everyone realized he cheated in renting Swift. He then lost Billups in free agency but recovered well being extremely dumb lucky signing Travis Best who blew up. Had a pretty good team but nothing great but had many guys who could be parted with for future considerations however Martinez only did a half ass job by only dealing Fortson and Best leaving the rest of the players in place to continue to be mediocre. He won every game he should have and credited himself with his DC making ability only for us all to learn Spence re-did his DC behind his back because Marty was doing such a poor job on his own. Ouch
The Rodney Dangerfield Award- For the GM who gets no respect even though he deserves some for the accomplishes and strides he has made with his franchise. And the winner is......
Skillz- Everyone is always ripping on the kid for making one too many deals and sometimes deservedly so but he did things right this time and put together a winning Franchise. He has a balance of youth and veterans and acquired useful depth for a reasonable price. Skillz deserves a little r-e-s-p-e-c-t
The Nancy Kerrigan Award- To the GM who skates around the issues never being involved in any conflicts or debates of any matter. And the winner is......
Aaron Reilly- He will never hop into the fire and he is as cool as ice so he the perfect recipient for the award. I challenge you to try and find the last time he has disagreed with anyone on anything and made a big deal about it. He isn't afraid to go at it but he'll skate around until he sees a battle worth fighting.
The Fez Award- This award is given to the best Foreign GM meaning not from the United States. And the winner is......
A2J- The biggest reason why is he is a great addition to the post padding threads, we never have to wait on him for DC, bids, or anything and he is extremely friendly and level headed. He also has a really good team in the best division in BBS.
The Speed Racer Award- This award is given out to the GM who exhibited the fastest way to lose and get to the bottom of the league and gain a serious lead on anyone else who tried to out suck him(no homo). And the winner is.......
Andy the Mexican- Andy's coaching and Gming were non existent and he got to the bottom quicker than a cannonball in water. The move paid off well landing the #1 pick breaking the tanking curse to draft Chris Paul to be the centerpiece for his team for the next 10 years.
