This Blazers era about to be over article (Nate)

My boy Pritchard?

That's odd since I never mentioned him once in this thread.
In fact I think Pritchard was a fairly flawed GM who had one moment of genius followed by several questionable deals, culminating in the horrible offer to Hedo.

Miller he signed in a panic since he knew he needed to do something with the cap space he had pimped for two years prior.


This statement about Cho is in reference to the traits the team stated they wanted in their next GM.
They wanted someone who was experianced at building a winning organization and a team that went deep into the playoffs.

No matter what you think of Cho he sure as shit doesn't fit that profile.

Can Cho be the guy to turn this team around?
Maybe.
The very fact that we have no evidence one way or the other makes his hiring an abject failure.

 

I beg to differ. As I've already pointed out, many GM's have started out with no actual front office experience and have done well.

 

Eggars is slow to catch on.

The end of the era began 2 seasons ago when Larry Miller was hired and they traded Sergio.

Then they traded nearly every young healthy player we had left.

It officially ended when KP was fired last spring.

Poor Nate is left with a dead horse he has to drag up and down the court all season.

 

Pritchard had been GM of a minor league team in Kansas City. It wouldn't surprise me if the others had similar GM experience before doing the same in the NBA.
