    I agree, but this is apparently what dumber fans want--a GM who speaks like a TV personality--instant reaction, thoughtless, stream of thought rambling to fill a time increment.

    At the other polar opposite, Cho was a caricature of the inscrutable Oriental. Bob Whitsitt was the perfect compromise, but then he was the perfect human being too.

    Words are irrelevant. Transactions will matter.

    Indeed... I hope he has the ability push a deal like Whitsitt, keep the public "all is well in Rip City" face like Pritchard and understand the CBA like Cho/Penn. Don't want much in a GM do I?

    Being "called out" by you isn't saying much tbh.

    Awww. You're trolling in desperate need of attention, yet aren't content with receiving my attention. That hurts. :sigh:
