I think this meeting was to clarify and specify expectations --

When you fire someone, you meet with them, put them on an action plan, and then evaluate them based on the action plan.

(No not all people are fired that way--a few of you get fired every time you burn the fries, but you get the idea)

Any market guy will tell you that success is defined as long term gains and mitigating downside risk. Warren Buffett once said, and I'm paraphrasing, that it is not about how many big wins you have, but it is about how many big losses you avoid.

 

Tepper sees this as a long game, I guarantee you. He is also a schemer and is willing to deal and risk. Thats the MO of an investment minded guy.

 

He is not going to abandon a stock because of bad short term performance... but he will also sell high.

 

He is telling Ron and Marty how he wants things ran. He has a 2 time coach of the year and a vet GM who has relationships and experience around the league. He knows the strengths and weaknesses of both. He is setting expectations.

 

I wonder who the 'buy low' guys will be, I wonder who the blue chip dividend earners are identified as and (most importantly) I wonder where we will sell high.

This is pretty much it.  No one on this board has had the success of Tepper and probably not the foresight he has either.  He's also been around the NFL a long time and knows the ups and downs that come along with a franchise.  We just made the playoffs last year. If we aren't in them next year there will be changes.

Another winner.

Kudos.

This isn't the stock market.

Stock markets don't have 16 game seasons, playoffs and championships.

You win and lose on an annual basis in this game. Playing to win in five years is a pretty stupid approach.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
