    With Fratello fired and Jerry West in his last season as GM, it seems as if this franchise is returning to its roots as the Clippers of the east.

    Even though they are in the Western Conference.

    Fratello will be fine. Kudos to him lasting as long as he did with that freak show franchise.

    The Czar will coach every team at least once during his career. What is this, his 8th job? Soon becoming the Gene Shue of this generation.

    ...and its roots are in Vancouver.

    Yeah but he hadn't coached in nearly 20 years before this.

    Fratello is a good coach in a poor situation. I hope to see him get another chance elsewhere, perhaps somewhere with more appropriate talent.

    I always loved watching Fratello coach defense...the man had it down to science, at least back in his Cleveland days.

    I think Fratello was fired a month too late. Santa could've really used another elf.

    Hey, you say to-mah-to....

    So, anyway, wasn't this thread about the Fratellis? And whatever happened to One-Eyed Willie's treasure? Did Josh Brolin, Corey Feldman and pals chase down the pirate ship after it burst out of hiding?
