Yeah, Well You Weren’t So Smart Last Season

Mr. Adande, before we go through an entire basketball season during which you explain to Times’ readers how much you know about the game, it would be nice if you wrote a column acknowledging that your judgment is sometimes way off. Remember the column you wrote last season in which you said the Clippers would be fools if they didn’t sign Maurice Taylor to a long-term, $14-million-a-year contract?
Taylor can’t rebound or play defense and even his scoring is mediocre. These attributes of his aren’t new. He has played this way all through his short NBA career. If Sterling would have taken your advice, it would have been a big blunder for which you and the other “sportswriters” would have chided him.
The fact is, your assessment of the situation was terrible and you should own up to it. If you’re enough of a stand-up guy you will.
