KB21 Posted July 9, 2006 Report Share Posted July 9, 2006 The report is that Steve Belkin is so confident that he will get control of the Hawks, that he has already lined up ML Carr to be the GM and Jan Volk to be the President. Sometimes, I told you so just doesn't seem to fit. The report says that ML Carr is even telling people that he will be the next GM of the Hawks. Who was it that told me that Steve Belkin wouldn't hire the worst GM in Celtics history? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KB21 Posted July 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2006 Did you hear IJ Rosenberg talking about this? I forgot the source he cited for this information. He said some guy in Boston interviewed Belkin, and this is what Steve Belkin told that guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDCLARKJR Posted July 9, 2006 Report Share Posted July 9, 2006 The best thing ML Carr has done in his NBA career (executive,coach, player) is wave a towel while watching the real players do the work........ It's downright sickening to know that it's a possibility he could be here.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BornandDieHawks Posted July 9, 2006 Report Share Posted July 9, 2006 According to the Boston paper, M.L. Carr is part owner of the Charlotte Bobcats. Would he give that up to be a GM? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KB21 Posted July 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2006 M.L. Carr is nothing more than a cheerleader for the Bobcats. If he has a piece of ownership, it's likely that he owns less than 1% of the franchise. M.L. Carr and Steve Belkin are big buddies though. When Belkin was in the group trying to buy the Bobcats, M.L. Carr was one of his partners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KB21 Posted July 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2006 I had it on, and I was reading something while listening. I heard it, and I had to wait and hear it again to make sure that's what I heard. I heard him mention something about some reporter in Boston, but I wasn't listening well enough to remember his name.

In other words, they'd be better served just shutting their arrogant pieholes about the situation, even if they THINK they're going to win- because as far as I can tell there are still many, many appeals processes yet to be run. Arrogance like that deserves to get get slapped down and crushed, and god oh god do I hope to see that happen to those pricks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The final nail in the Hawks coffin is being driven in. It's just about over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah well, with so many bad things happen over the years I just expect it to go that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OGRat Posted July 10, 2006 Report Share Posted July 10, 2006 What would be the best possible outcome of Stern stepping in? What could he really do? He's not bigger than the court of law. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f_town Posted July 10, 2006 Report Share Posted July 10, 2006 i thought the judge stated he was going to consult with the NBA and NHL before sending down a ruling? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vdunkndunk Posted July 10, 2006 Report Share Posted July 10, 2006 Also, the rest of the owners don't have to approve Belkin for ownership. Even if he wins in the court, hopefully it's not a given that the NBA will allow him to take over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
