Rob Pelinka Discussion: BBall Ops Pres + GM (AKA: Lucky Rob)

Rubbish

 

A lot of stuff in that assessment has been bandied about a lot around here. Abeer will disagree with a lot of it tho. He's going to say " It was mostly Magic and Westbrook!"

 

Lakers at 22

Talks about support staff and dysfunction in the FO

Then talks about how we seem to develop players

Flippers at 12?

 

I’m not even touching that article. I know how this is about to go.

 

The front office did do a good job this offseason though. Any other team would be praised for those moves.

 

100% this

The ESPN bias is so evident

 

Rob didn’t know the cap right before we won a ring, so yeah, media opinions on these things are crucial and accurate.

 

Most lucky cap oblivious scrambling day-to-day GM

 

Luka signing a 4 year extension. Cool.

Good news.

 

sources indicate luka wanted a 5-year vet min, but d****** pelinka steered him into the current deal instead, after chris paul declined the (illegal and impossible) maximum contract rob offered two days ago before the clippers' much wiser management team sold paul on a vision and tradition of excellence.

 

What the heck?

This sounds bizarre

 

Sarcasm mate

 

LOL who's EEAR?

 

look, when you know nothing of the cap, professional basketball, or basic human decency and just collect checks while trying to make the team worse, weird things happen.

not sure where this should go, but i found it interesting that we hired this guy.

i read a long piece a while back that detailed some of the internal fallout in dallas among the sports medicine/training staff, and i didn't love how this guy was characterized. will be interesting to watch. i guess he's luka's boy.

 

I don't have any opinion on this guy, but I don't trust anything that Nico did or any media that came out from that time. Clean slate for me, let's see what happens.

 

nico fired him after he and their head medical guy got into it, iirc?
