Awesome. Now he can have his new employer trade for Drew Gooden.
When Krause said he didn’t feel that the season could be called a good one since we fell short of the playoffs, Paschke rightly reminded him that there are 14 upstanding teams that didn’t make the playoffs. Made me proud that we could be among them.

Wow, what a cool opportunity for him. I know we all agree per is an overrated stat however he seems like a smart guy who finally got what I am assuming is a dream job. I always wondered why teams didn't try to hire guys like Larry Coon and David Berri. I always thought if you were a team, why wouldn't you hire a cap expert (GAD in his prime comes to mind along with Coon) and a stats guy who understand efficiency.

As long as he doesn't try to ruin this Grizz team. They've got it just about right as it is.

I highly doubt he's actually going to be making personnel decisions.

I think Mark Stein or one of those guys tweeted that he actually will be involved in personnel decisions.

He's talked about what a great player Gooden is for a long time. Get on the phone Hammond.

Memphis just finally got Gay and Randolph playing together and this Memphis team is special. It would be very disappointing to see them break this group up.
