    I don't exactly know what that means, but I hope he isn't going to mess himself up with this one.

    Hey, McHale is ten times worse than any gm ever. He made ONE good move ever, by drafting the first high schooler in like 20-30 years.

    ^^yup. we signed JOE SMITH to an illegal deal and lost like 3-5 first round picks. JOE SMITH. then we traded for him anyway the next year. we also draft horrendously. our second best pick ever is prolly a tie between wally and laetner. That is a little sad.

    lol. Oh man. BUt I think this is a position that Babcock should have been in for a while. The GM position is too much responsibility for him to handle. I mean, he did some okay stuff with the Raptors. It's jsut the good to crap ratiowas ridiculous.

    I am pretty sure this was his old job with us, so this shouldnt change much.

    The blind leading the blind is the appropriate cliche for this duo.
