This guy seems to fancy himself the king of the snarky remarks – check his other post about Kareem. If PJ WERE being paid during a lockout – THAT would be the occasion for a snarkyism – we’ll call them ‘kurtsies’.

But PJ and his boss talked this over last year and PJ, being an honorable man, did not want it to be like that so he is now retired.

So cancel the kurtsy.

FYI – I don’t like the Lakers but I do respect them and Phil Jackson is one of the best coaches ever and if this clown wanted to send him off with a kurtsy that’s up to him.
