    Didn't we recently hear that Sheed had moved back to town? I'm thinking Asst. GM Rasheed!

    Well, it looks like at OKC, Cho was the cap guy/ negotiator, and the other guy was basically head scout/draft guru.
    So... that doesn't really help me guess who they are - but they probably fit that pattern.
    If one of the assistants is a long-time NBAer, does that mean the other one isn't? It would only make sense that the cap guy isn't - you can't bring a scout in from some other field.
    So maybe we have an out-of-the-box choice for cap guy, and the head scout is already in PDX getting settled.

    Thats what I was thinking. I'm sure he still has some good relationships around the league. He was once a top executive when he was with the Magic.

    Gabriel would be a threat to Cho's power. (How long is Cho's contract?) Cho is the team's cap specialist, so what he needs is talent evaluators. (And someone who can TALK.)

    So the first one is going to be Steve Rosenberry from Atlanta. He, OF COURSE, worked for Seattle as well.


    Who do we think the second one is?

    LMAO repped. Sheed was the master of the canned response with barely suppressed rage.

    So you're saying Cho smokes more Indo then Cheech, Chong and Snoop rolled into one. Got it.

    Maybe he'll have some new graphics on the Blazers website from this company and can save us money via barter: http://420creative.com/ (That's a real company believe it or not, with a ton of employees too!)
