    What's interesting of note is that once hired, you'll be waived, never work a day as a Blazer, and have your salary stretched over 3 years...

    The pay is not gonna pay competitive with bay area companies, but you get to work for Basketball ops!

    And then one of you nerds can make the case to pick up Isaiah Roby or some shit.

    I check everyone of their boxes. But they are hard-capped. They can't afford me. ;)

    Many teams do have a scaled-down version of the championship ring for employees.

    We should have signed GP2 to this position. It's basically what he wanted a year ago.

    Nope. He wanted to stay with GSW as a video assistant.

    Why would you ask that, FAMS?

    Just to rub it in how unlikely we are to win a 'ship?

    I thought "maybe he is trying to be funny", but substituting video assistant for data scientist or full-stack developer did not strike me very funny, so I answered as if you did not know.

    So, I agree with you. It must be no-sense-of-humor-Wednesday ;)

    They said they will consider full-time remote positions. Go get it.
