    How do you think he has done so far?

    What would you like to see him do for the rest of the offseason?

    Are you pissed at him? Has your opinion of him improved at all?

    I'm going to actually make it so people can change their votes later in the offseason if they want to.

    Murray swimming or sinking might really be the determinant to me, but overall fairly pleased...

    I will say this - I have not been a huge Joe fan in the past but my opinion has changed a bit.

    I think Joe has been given his marching orders. I think Bert is calling the shots. I think Joe is trying to work within the constraints of what he has been given. This really reminds me of Moneyball.

    I was mad at him in the past because I would rather do nothing than do something bad. The Clippers trade was an example of doing something bad when we should have done nothing.

    Thankfully, yesterday he did the right thing and used the pick. Selling low on the #3 pick just to make Dame happy would have been a HUGE mistake.

    I think Joe is hopefully finally earning some respect around the league. Here is Woj saying basically the same thing.
