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

Yeah, it's definitely now or never for him. I expect us to upgrade the roster one way or another.

 

F Rob and everydayy until the day this incompetent MF is fired.

 

Rob is solid, he's unlikely to be going anywhere anytime soon

 

Yah, Pelinkus is solid alright. A solid turd. And he will be flushed as soon as Jeanie's d****** is gone or maybe even a little bit before then.

 

i'm nowhere near as down on rob as 90% of the fanbase, but i'm thinking this time next year it's unlikely he's in charge.

 

He has to pull off several mini miracles this summer to keep his job.
He ran his mouth about this being the summer, so he better deliver.
No one forced him to make that promise to Luka.

 

he really didn't, though. that was unsourced information supposedly from luka's camp.

what he did was refrain from making any trades with our expiring contracts in the name of flexibility. i understood that, but right now...it's looking like that flexibility is going to buy us jack squat.

 

Interesting. I hadn’t heard that part.

 

I’m sure getting a new GM will feel like “mana from heaven“ to some fans

 

Again, Rob hasn’t been all bad- he rebounded well from his own Westbrick Disaster, but has fumbled many of our assets.

 

I thought we should have just cleaned house and got a new group in here to lead things now to be honest.

BUT, since we didn't, I'm fully rooting for Rob to be successful this summer. We need to take advantage of Austin's cap hold being low and make a real step toward making the team better.

 

foil helmet: giving the rob the blessing to chase duren was a set up.

ownership agreed it was the highest possible return with the only downside being you missed out on offering long-term contracts to guys like rui, kennard, and smart--which you might regret very soon. it costs no draft picks, either. if you fail, you blame rob and fire him; selling luka on the idea that we have a blank slate and will bring in better execs.

i don't believe in this, but really, only luka needs to.

anyway, i will, as always, wait until the dust settles to freak out. forces are working against us, but that's often the case.

 

Yeah Vlade called it, he has this offseason and up to the trade deadline to get a team together.

That could mean getting a wing now like Watson for RFA. We could maybe make a move for a center at the deadline - what’s the chances someone falls off the wagon for 2 firsts at the deadline?

Wishful thinking I’m sure.

 

Yeah, F*** Rob. Just get fired already and go away.
