I can’t bring myself to believe that he’s gone until he actually is. This front office disappoints regularly

This is a joke. There’s zero justification to keep him.

Whether it's justified or not (and I think BC is likely complicit in a lot of the shenanigans), he just can't stay in this job. His thoughts are expressed in the tweets, he is the one who allowed confidential information to be disseminated, and he clearly has not been honest about his knowledge of the situation (at least in public). As a result, he is distrusted by the fans and his own players (and probably others GMs). How can anyone do this kind of job absent complete trust?

By now they either know what happens or are more clueless then we have feared.

Relax everybody, when they can him, they can say they didnt take this decision lightly. An extra 24-48 hours buys you that line. Cant imagine they hire someone in only a few days time, so probably have an interim co-GM thing happening because remember, they're a family.

All is well.

It's already been 3 full days. At what point will this have lingered for too long?

I love that DiM quoted mcare's twitter feed... also is your pod dead? I think I'm still subscribed to it.

@wojespn Houston Rockets executive Gersson Rosas has withdrawn as a candidate from the Detroit Pistons GM/senior basketball leadership search, league sources tell ESPN.

They're all probably going to start lining up now.

For now, yes. I'd like to do it again in the future, but it was impossible to sync up schedules with those guys to record, and we just got out of touch. Hopefully I'll be able to get it off the ground again at some point, either with a new co-host(s) or a revolving cast of characters.
