    Brandon: "I'm definitely interested in the GM position with the Blazers,” Brandon said. “I may not have the experience in management at that capacity, but knowing the game and being a point guard for many years in the league, I pretty much have ran a franchise before.”

    I used to play pick up basketball against Terrell Brandon at U of O, great guy. Not GM material. Maybe he could replace Porter as our sideline reporter.

    Not the GM this team needs to take us to the next level. It would be great for him to work in the organization somewhere though

    You thought I had "inside" info NOW??????? That's my HS basketball teammate FAMS! Well, I mad sure the bench was the right temperature and Terrell had fresh cold GATORADE at all times. That's my dog, great guy, but NOT ready to be handed over the reins to an NBA team!

    I think he should meet with PA and have a beer with him; if they connect, he should be our next GM!

    "I'm definitely interested in the GM position with the Blazers,” he said. “I have experience in management over 20 people, and reporting directly to the guy in charge of the whole organization. Additionally, knowing the game and being responsible for the work results and discipline of 18-30 y/o's, I pretty much have ran a franchise before.

    I guess I'm just hoping to be your Tom Penn.

    I'll interview by saying the bbf is offering me 8x as much to take the administrator job over there, and you work it in to Denny to say that he should make me at least a producer -- and then we HAVE to be in! How's Brandon or HCP or Pfund going to top that?

    Sounds like a plan. Now we need a stats guy. Maybe Rich Cho is available.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    I'll be your stats guy. I like to browse basketball-reference and I'm not a big fan of watching basketball. Far too random for my liking.

    Also, I looked at Magic Johnson's stats, so I have pretty much run a franchise.

    If it's a theater franchise, it does. For a "Tom Penn," that was a pretty elementary mistake that you made there.

    For a "Tom Penn", I call B.S. when people try to rewrite the CBA.
