    Re: David Aldridge: Olshey to Portland as next GM

    I think he should fire every fucking part of the current administration. Get rid of them all. The training staff, the coaching staff, the scouting staff.....

    Clean. House.

    NEIL OLSHEY NAMED TRAIL BLAZERS GENERAL MANAGER
    Olshey becomes 10th General Manager in team history

    PORTLAND, Ore. - The Portland Trail Blazers have named Neil Olshey as the team's general manager, Team President Larry Miller announced today. Per team policy, terms of the contract were not disclosed.

    "Neil is someone we've had on our radar for quite a while," said Miller. "Over the past two seasons he has demonstrated success in constructing a roster, managing salary cap and evaluating player talent. We feel very fortunate to have him in Portland and are thrilled about what this means for the future."

    The 10th general manager in Trail Blazers history, Olshey comes to Portland from the Los Angeles Clippers, where he served as the team's Vice President of Basketball Operations for the past two seasons. Placing third in votes for the 2011-12 NBA Executive of the Year Award, Olshey was responsible for all facets of basketball operations and player personnel moves while with the Clippers, and will hold the same responsibilities as General Manager of the Trail Blazers
