Question(s) re BB Press Conferences

[realtime]

BB's curt, condescending, shtick in his post game pressers was entertaining when the team was winning, but now it does not come across well at all.

For example, take the following exchanges from yesterday's presser:

Example 1:

Reporter: Why have the opportunities for Kendrick Bourne to be a regular target in the offense been so few and far between this year?
Answer: No particular reason.

Actual Reporter Follow Up: [Silence]
Proposed Follow Up: So, with the team having one of the league's most anemic offenses, your decision not to regularly use one of your most dynamic offensive players has been entirely random?

Example 2:

Reporter: Bill, how do you make sure that the players stay together the final two weeks of the season here?
Answer: Do what we have been doing.

Actual Reporter Follow Up: [Silence]
Proposed Follow Up: So that would be playing undisciplined football, making boneheaded mistakes, and losing games?

Under these circumstances, why do reporters continue to walk on egg shells around him in his press conferences? What would be the repercussions of proposed follow-ups along the lines of the above?

But seriously, BB could get their press pass pulled if they piss him off with those follow ups you proposed.

What would be the repercussions of proposed follow-ups along the lines of the above?

Withering stare. Maybe even with a followup sniff.
