Not sure i can take JVG's comments seriously. Alex Martin said nothing about SVG that wasn't accurate or well known. the guy is a very good coach but also has issues when it comes to relating to his players. It will be nice to not have JVG voicing Stan's opinions when he analyses our games in the future. It was getting ridiculous.

Steve Kerr just said on TNT conf call he hasn't heard from the #Magic & he has no plans to pursue an #NBA front office job.

Kerr said he wouldn't rule out a front-office job in the future, though.

Jarrod Rudolph

@JoshuaBRobbins @wsshaneg: The most likely ending Donnie (VP), Chris Mullin or Jeff Bower (GM) and Adonal (AGM).

I like the VP, not very excited about the rest TBH. But if I had to choose who our GM would be out of those 2, it'd be Bower.

At least we don't have to worry about Shaq being GM anymore.

Definitely Bower. He did great with the Hornets with limited resources he had so he knows how to get good value from players but now he'll have far more resources. Unlike Otis who was giving out overpaid contracts like it was candy on Halloween.

Mullin, while I support him cuz he's a Brooklyn cat, doesn't really excite me as a GM. He built up a nice core with the "We Believe" Warriors but then he squandered completely in 07 and 08. In fact one of his worst moves came early in his tenure when he gave a 6 year 42 mil contract to.....

....Adonal Foyle, I feel like Martins should ask him whether he would have given himself that contract just to gauge what kind of personnel moves he would make.

Yeah, really.

Best news I heard all day, also, I don't believe him. I think he did inquire, this rumor spread way to quickly, across far too many outlets.
