Only the Wizards would hire the guy that oversaw the worst losing streak in NBA history. Hire this guy and immediately ship out Deni. Incredible. Ted, sell the team you idiot.

The New Orleans Pelicans have hired Troy Weaver to be their Senior Vice-President under new President of Basketball Operations Joe Dumars, a source told Andscape. The former Detroit Pistons general manager is departing the Washington Wizards where he was a senior advisor

Interesting.
I've been pretty happy with the Wizards drafting these last 2 years. I hope Weaver wasn't too instrumental in running the scouting department.

i.e. in the sense that he might have been a positive influence in making picks...? Hmmm... I hadn't thought of that!
Meanwhile, always glad to see a local guy get his career back on the fast track. &, they can definitely use some help down there!

He was hired only two days before the last draft. I'm sure he arrived with opinions, but he had nothing to do with last year's scouting.
It's hard to understand exactly what he did this last year. There are so many office types in the Wiz organization, it's not clear to me what he did as a "senior advisor".
