Bill Laimbeer: Piston King

I have a confession to make. As much as I’m liking the Michael Jordan film—Bill Laimbeer has been the star for me so far. If only Sam Presti had been smart enough to find a tough stretch five enforcer like Bill Laimbeer who could hit threes the Thunder probably would have won two or three championships.

But instead Presti brought in Kendrick Perkins.

Laimbeer would have reeled in Westbrook and would have put an immediate end to all that pussy whining of Kevin Durant. With all due respect to Maurice Cheeks…Bill Laimbeer either as a player or as the Thunder head coach would have toughed those two up instead of baby-sitting them for a decade.

Bill Laimbeer in my view was/is the Piston King…not Isiah. It was Laimbeer with his rough and tumble attitude and penchant for hitting big shots who made the Bad Boys the cult darlings they truly have become over the years.

I play this damn video every morning now to get myself revved up for the day. Bill Laimbeer has taken the place of coffee for me.

If Netflix can make the Mike Gundy-like character in the Tiger King a docu-film star…I have to think to myself surely someone at Netflix has been watching The Last Dance and can clearly visualize a Piston King film in the offing.

Of course…in Oklahoma City in the faux evangelical Christian market with all the phony Christians who tithe the pussy grabber Donald Trump–I realize Presti and Clay Bennett would never make a hire like Bill Laimbeer.

But maybe they should.

What would they have to lose?

Bill Laimbeer…I love you, buddy. You are the TSN (Toughness, Snarl, Nasty) King….and Piston King of all-time.
