What does our Front Office do 40 hours per week? 

Post#1 » by CZ Eddie » Thu Jan 10, 2019 4:16 am

I know some of the regulars here are writers. I'd love to see a weekly or monthly series detailing each FO position and what that job entails. Such a VP, GM, Scout, etc. etc.
What is the job description? What do you do and who do you do it with? Details, details.

This thread isn't meant to post pictures of people golfing but I'm sure it'll go that way.

They took a trip to Athens once. Did you know that? It was no big deal or anything, it was just to get the scoop on a guy named GIANNIS ANTETOKOUNMPO.
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.

- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.

Hmm I wonder what Alex Martins does daily for the Orlando magic? Good question.

Just take a look at this. It's not the 2.5 GMs(Henny, WeHam), it's not the 5 coaches. It's the jerks above them that run this team. Just look at all the talent this organization has missed out on over the last 4 drafts, because upper management didn't want to fully commit to the playoffs or true tanking. Hell you could assemble almost assemble a starting 5, with all the talent we missed out on. See below



2015 draft:

Towns
D Russ
Porzingis
Booker
Turner

2016 draft:

Simmons
Ingram
Brown
Murray
Sabonis(we traded)

2017 draft:

Tatum
Fox
Mitchell
Kuzma(could have traded back in the lower 1st round)

2018 draft:

Doncic
Young
Ayton
JJJ



If 2014 draft stayed the same with EP and AG. Payton, Vuc, Fournier, Gordon traded away for vets, depth, picks.

Things could look so different now. The team and organization would have a sense of direction and that is playoff contention.



Fox
Oladipo
Doncic
Sabonis
Turner


:o


This is just one example of a starting 5 we could have right now. There are so many possibilities. We wouldn't be in a 7 year rebuild with no direction either way, if the jerks up above had half of a brain.




It's time to see the light of day people. It's time the fans take back this team. We must get rid of Alex Martins and DeVos family.

Hopfeully they're working the phones hashing out which deals to make and playing hardball for the best offer.

If Vuc/TRoss are on the roster post ASB then we can add it to the list of assets we've pissed away.

Probably on a message board like Colangelo.

They should be forced to at least talk about their rational for what they've done or haven't done. Even Otis Smith who didn't like to talk, talked more than this.

YASSSS they probably work like 20 tops. Give it a week and maybe we’ll get 25 hours.

I will use this thread to plant a seed. None of us should be working 40 hours a week in 2019. We were supposed to be working 15 hours a week by now. We're all just rats in a cage. Let Welham do nothing and celebrate their genius!
