Is Cronin the best GM ever?

[KingSpeed]

He trades Dame for Jrue, Camara, and then Jrue for Brogdon, RW3, and picks. Gets Deni out of Brogdon and pick. Gets Jrue and Dame BACK for Simons and gives Milwaukee their picks back to turn Grant/Scoot into Giannis.

Essentially…

Blazers give up :
3rd pick in 2023 draft
14th pick in 2024 draft
Simons
Grant

Blazers get:
Giannis
Avdija
Camara
Jrue
RW3

I must've slept through the bit where they successfully traded for Giannis.

If Cronin did the trade on that chart he would plunge to the bottom of Blazers' GMs.

I think this thread should be merged with the Melo thread

Trader Bob was our best GM.

Did I miss the Giannis news? In fairness, I was napping

No, no he wasn't. Most active, yes. But not best.

Who was better? You could argue Petrie, but IMO not pulling the trigger for Barkley and the fire sale on Drazen hurts him.

Glickman. He put together the title team.

But the trading of Jermaine, over tinkering with the 2000 team leading its collapse gets a pass?

I loved Trader Bob. Just hard to compare to the GMs since the luxury tax and all the extra rules.

KP is the best GM we have had in the last 20 years

Leave my thread out of this!

Stop merging threads please. Threads all need some room to either grow or die.

It's funny because we would still hold onto the Bucks 2029 pick.

Almost got my first like. Bob was active, but he was also working without a salary cap

I missed the joke, sorry, but in fairness, I was napping.

Also I think napping is funnier than slept through, so improved the joke is more accurate than stole

Nap implies a little tired. slept through implies I must've missed a long chunk of time. Both are funny, mine was just first.

I HATE Y...er, I mean, DAMN YOU BLAZER BROADCASTING AND OR MEDICAL STAFF!
