Where's the news about Casey being in contention coming from? What's his credentials for this.

Casey is good for culture. The worst Piston team in history wasn't his fault? He dealt with a Cade injury that year right? This looks bleak man...

They have a lot of overlooked guys from Tyrese to Nembs to Nesmith to now bringing in Jay Huff. They all fit well together and their is a real identity to the team.

He’s really the only guy that I view as a remotely suitable option as far as external hires go.

All the Masai haters thought good executives like Masai grow on trees and that he was easily replaceable. Now they're real quiet... because they're waking up to reality.

That would also bring into question why they are so hell bent on replacing Masai instead of just operating without a President like many teams do.


they obviously don't want to spend on the position so that alone limits the candidate pool.


Which makes it even more confusing why they want to hire a president while simultaneously penny pinching?

Might be the only upside until Ed Rodgers power bombs him through his desk.

I have not heard another better path than giving Bobby a raise and Pres. Give Dan a raise and maybe a little more of title but keep GM open and hire outside so you create stability while infusing new ideas into the team.

Hiring a medieval 70 year old coach like casey to run your franchise is exactly a move the pelicans/kings would make. God this is our new reality

I feel like Casey will do his COY speech, if he is back on the Raptors.
