good point. i think we're gonna see a "creative" restructuring of the front office. rose/wes might be more like team governors with more basketball-specific management underneath them. i'd hope so, personally

For the people confused, WWW wouldn’t be GM, he would just be in the organization in some role under Rose

yep. i'm not mad. i'll give him a chance. hire a gm who can spot talent and you have both components to making a team better. free agency & the draft.

Steve Mills is well educated ran the players union and is a businessman, seeks well respected around the league and has a long list of connexions. This could be really good.

It worked out so well the first time we brought him around...

Hold on....wait when a second, was this around like 2006/2007?

You’d have to give me a reminder.
Just before Phil was hired. The CAA was basically running MSG.
