    Post padding again, MM? You started the thread, then responded with who you got your money on? Before anyone else posted? Why not make one post?

    (For the record, I don't really care, but I wanted to call you out on it and give you shit.)

    FYI, I agree - Bower could be the guy. Or I could definitely see the position being somewhat two-headed. Chad and his crew more managing player evaluation (both for guys coming out of college and already in the NBA) and having more say there. And someone better with negotiating trades and contracts.

    I should get into post-padding.

    Is there a decent GM candidate in existence that would want to work for the Trail Blazers, given the lack of autonomy and the weird Vulcan GM-by-committee BS?

    I expect the only established GMs that would do it would insist on complete control, and considering PA's ownership history that is very unlikely.

    No business owner in history has given any underling complete control. In every NBA team, the owner approves or disapproves player changes before they happen.

    You're right, I really meant to imply a more normal GM/owner relationship as opposed to the Vulcan board of confusion.
    And it should be obvious by now that I'm also padding
