It better not be Dumars. I would rather keep DG at that point

Hope the new VP keeps the GM. Bryson Graham is the only bright spot FO.

Griffin’s legacy is three shite hires and squandering the biggest treasure chest in the league. In hindsight, he was truly a disaster.

None of it matters if you don’t fire the absolute moron coaching the team

Hidden in the press release, Gayle says renovations are coming to SKC. She says they’re “committed to making the SKC one of the premier NBA arenas"

Shoulda happened years ago. He’s set the franchise back years after being handed a golden platter of assets and totally blew it.

I got tired of pointing out his mistakes every year. And it started with his first big move trading for Steven Adams. And ended with trading DD.

She’s gonna pick a POBO that’s willing to keep Willie.

By the time they hire one, all the worthwhile coaches will be off the market. You know they're going to take their sweet ole time making the hire.

I can't fully judge Willie as a coach when Zion and Ingram hardly played together or in shape

He found hidden gems in Alvarado, Herb Jones, Reeves, Boston Jr., Matkovic and Missi.

Part of Shams followup tweet of DG "building a strong roster but" is a great epithet. I think DG would do well as a GM with a POBO over him but here that'd be a demotion and likely wasn't in the cards.

This talk is going to have people thinking Willie is a good coach ain’t it?

Yep that’s the plan. Hire a POBO and then he can’t hire a quality HC because it’s too late.
