[THE HCP]

 

[blazedanugz]

Anyone know anything about this person?

Comes from the Cavs who have had a nice rebuild

 

[SlyPokerCat]

Interesting. I don't think this dude would jump ship unless he got assurances Cronin was staying on as GM. Or that he would stay on if they hired another GM.

Or he thinks he might have a shot at becoming GM.

That too

 

[Orion Bailey]

Either way, i see this as a positive sign. Putting the cart BEHIND the horse for once.

 

[Scalma]

Should just remove the interim tag at this point.

[HailBlazers]

NICE! Seems like a great hire.

 

[THE HCP]

I swear he played at Indiana U back in the mid 90s!

 

[AldoTrapani]

Oh damn this pretty much means Cronin got the job permanently if they’re letting him hire people

Windhorst mentioned that Cronin has been hiring people to his staff behind the scenes on that podcast with 1080 earlier as well

 

[Scalma]

Crazy that Cronin didn't promote Mr. Sun Bed instead! Wonder if he got fired.

 

[Phatguysrule]

Very positive sign, IMO.

 

[Hoopguru]

I dont see CJ being moved before the deadline, maybe this offseason. They will use second half of season to allow him to get rolling and up his value some.

 

[riverman]

Picked up from the Cavs...worked with the Jazz and maybe the Pacers? Article is on the home site ..good move by Joe!
