    What do you guys think of him?

    I've seen him criticized a lot in the media and on here and such, when we really haven't even seen Weisbrod's team yet, so most hate is presumptuous...

    I like him so far.

    I think he is bold and assertive, and he knows what he wants. Those qualities were lacked when John Gabriel was in office. He may take risks, but risks are what make winners. Look at the Pistons/Ben Wallace.

    I like his commendation of Francis sticking up for a teammate and getting in Amare's face as well. Most coaches/staff members wouldn't say something like that, but good old John did.

    Discuss.

    I ll take blame of critizing Weisbrod.. But that's me.. I should lay off and see what he's doing before i jump on him.. I agree hes doing a lot more than Gabriel would of done, So I guess its just time to sit back and watch him for a while..

    As long as we don't have Francis and Mobley on the Team, i think he's the man!!!!!!!!!!Even a team without tracy and any replacement could make the East! We have some talent when everyone's healthy.

    I like him, all the other gms thought he would be easy to negotiate with.but they have found out he might be a rookie, but he knows what he is doing. One of the reasons tracy is gone is because weisbrod is a no nonsense kind of guy who doesn't baby his players instead he wants to see them work hard even in practice.

    ^True but the guy did try his best to rebuild this team. I like the fact that he got Jameer here in Orlando. That's about it though.

    Well thats not fair to say HE passed on Emeka because it's not only his choice,the staff agreed on Hoard as a group.

    I think Weisbrod is a pretty good GM,I mean he isnt no Isiah Thomas but he is getting the job done well.

    well juwan and lue are in the trade and that team would win a maximum of 5 games! i agree that mobley is not all hes cracked up to be, but francis has changed his outlook on orlando and will do a good job running a fastbreak offense. if the 3 way trade with golden state goes through, the magic will be NASTY

    Weisbrod and his staff made a unanimous decision to pick Howard. I think they made the right selection too. It's an investment, Weisbrod knows that great teams take time to build.
    Also, what's this about a three-way with Golden State?!
