He kinda sucks at getting free agent deals done but he's great a acquiring a player via trade. As for the draft since 2009, you can thank Ryan West for that. Before Ryan, Mitch didn't do so well. If you mentioned Andrew Bynum, Drew was a Jim Buss pick. The best picks Mitch ever made pre-Ryan West was Kareem Rush and Jordan Farmar. Since Mitch took over as GM when Jerry West left in the summer of 2000, he signed guys like Mitch Richmond, Karl Malone, Gary Payton, Horace Grant, Metta, Bryon Russell, brought back Vlade, Vladimir Radmanovic, Smush Parker, Jim Jackson, Isaiah Rider, brought back Fish, Steve Blake, Matt Barnes, Theo Ratliff, Antawn Jamison, Aaron McKie, Troy Murphy, brought back Jordan Farmar, Chris Kaman, Jodie Meeks, Wesley Johnson, Kendall Marshall, Nick Young and Steve Nash
People said GP and Karl signing was all Shaq. Jodie was great with the Lakers. His best years was with the Lakers. Nick I think was a ok singing. He struggled this year with his hand injury....
