Around SBN: Russell Westbrook and Kevin Durant's Post-Game 5 Outfits

They had a very interesting psychological test. They had a guy who you were playing with blocks, you were drawing pictures, memorizing things. I thought it was a pretty cool process.

I heard a rumor

that Rose cheated on the “playing with blocks” test

No way

I’m sure they had him playing with blocks and drawing pictures in his classes at Simeon. With just a little more work, he might have been able to get a kindergarten-level score on his standardized tests.

I wonder if Aldridge was bad at this

Or it was just the dinner date from hell that did him in.

That Steve Nash is exactly the same as Kirk Hinrich, but worse.

yes
One of the strangest was when one team asked if he had a girlfriend. When he said, ``No,‘’ the follow-up was whether he had any “friends with benefits.”
``That was kind of a whacky question,’’ Budinger said.
Asked how he responded, Budinger said, “No comment.”

I wonder if thats a question to see how you would deal with questions from the media. Or what your sexual habbits are?

I'd guess they sign some agreement to be asked these questions.

Either when they officially declare or go to each place.

Nope. Not legal.

Not even if they have him sign some b.s. disclaimer.

Really

I can’t believe they’re asked this question. They’re basketball players. They’re not bond traders.

Okay, Chase

If you have one bucket that holds two gallons and one bucket that holds five gallons,

How many buckets do you have?

90% of NBA players would get that one wrong

That's what the smarter NBA players would answer

The dumber ones would simply be unable to add 2 and 5.

why would they need to add 2 plus 5?

by CJOliveira on May 29, 2009 2:19 PM CDT up reply actions  

Yeah, seriously.

Question asked how many buckets. There’s 2. Not 7. That’s gallons.

you guys missed the point.

That was all sarcasm...

…mocking the stereotype of dumb NBA players that even the smartest ones would be unable to have decent reading comprehension.

Hey Jerrry? What kid? Can I play with those blocks while you talk? Sure kid, do whatever you want. Leave us alone now. We’re deciding if we want the franchise to implode from a black hole or not. Thanks Jerry!

If your're an organization that knows nothing constructive towards building a championship caliber team

then the duche bags and minions running this organization must continue with the John Paxson foolishiness to help elevate their weak egos which are filled with insecurities and nerdyiness.

The residue minions left in power by “former ball player but non-basketball mind, but isolationist werido” John Paxson still are running things a..backwards.

This organization needs to clean house: brain trust wise, not just a Gar lip stick makeover. Bring in some real Mgmt and Executives who are passionate about basketball and winning not this foolish.. my brain is bigger than yours although you may be bigger and better in other things.

These mental exercises, help you select Luol Deng types.. who say all the right things to talk himself into 72 million while never dominating a game in 4 years. Remember the famous JP quote “But Loul is a good guy”

Here’s something to review .. in the Bulls war draft room, out of all the white shirts in the room how many played college, professional nba ball and at least averaged 7 pts or better a game. Paxson’s minions, he loved surrounding himself with lessor’s than the less. BJ Armstrong had to be fired/leave ASAP!

man up!

I bet he did better than Boylan

Things could be worse. We could have kept Boylan.
