I trust Coach Golden on Aberdeen

Welcome to the party. Nice to see a new face. Your English appears to be as sound as many folks who post here. But if you plan on staying on the basketball forum for a while, you either need to stock up on patience pills or learn the proper dance routine:



It can get you a bit dizzy, but you learn to handle it. And it is kind of fun.

You know, like how much fun it is when you put hot sauce in your mouth and you have open sores in it...

 

As we used to say in my old profession, “It doesn’t have to be ‘fun’ to be fun.”

 

I'm past the Aberdeen story. I won't let it sour the experience we just had, in which he played a big role.

 

in the end unfortunately with a lot of kids it is about the benjamin’s

 

Your English may not be perfect but you’re far better at typing than I am !
AD left.. oh well. Move on and move up!

 

Looking forward to getting to know the new players, whoever they are.

 

Great title for this thread..in Golden I trust. I was looking forward to seeing him in a bigger role next year but in Golden we trust.

 

Well, I guess loyalty is earned. It's works both ways. It's a cut-throat business regardless, not chuch league or middle school.

 

If I am not mistaken, Reggie White (I believe he was an ordained minister) waited until God told him which team to go to when he became an unrestricted free agent. And then the cloudy skies opened up, there was the sound of angels singing and then a booming voice came out from the middle of a ray of light, saying "I want you to go to Green Bay and make me proud." And the rest they say is history.



And it didn't hurt that Green Bay gave him a contract offer that was WAY above everyone else. I guess God works in mysterious ways. He uses quality people in places that also pays the largest monies. Halleluiah!!!

 

Ah, so dad drove this decision, got it.

What garbage comments tbh

 

If the quote is accurate(I question everything these days) then it reads like a dad who is jilted over negotiations. If Aberdeen was a proposed starter next year how does that fit in with a coach that doesn't believe in him? I always leave room for explanations like maybe Aberdeen isn't expected to start even if unlikely because at the end of the day we don't really know what goes on behind closed doors but on the surface this looks like another case of a meddling parent shopping their kid around.

 

It's about the Benjamins for everyone, not just the kids. I just recently took a position with the potential for 2-3 times what I was making. Not a wise choice as all I thought about was the money. I hated it and after a few weeks I went back to the position I had. Much happier. I hope it works out for Denzel better than my choice did for me.

 

Wonder if God told him to go to Green Bay before or after they offered him the most money.

 

I sincerely hope the staff (and Condo) are all over Ben Henshall. He would be a huge addition especially given Aberdeen's departure. Our odds of repeating would increase substantially with the Aussies both on board IMO

 

Do you not believe in the power of God?



Or the power of influence money???
