From Buss/Kupchak/Black to Johnson/Pelinka/?.

We've got less than two more days before the deadline as well. It's going to be interesting to say the least.

No reason not to. Just get whatever you can get and move on, not that he has played poorly....at least now there should be some market for him unlike last summer.

I hope he next cuts/trades Huertas, MWP and or Trob. Sign DLeague guys on 10 day deals and let's find some diamonds.

So when he was part of those Michigan teams that included a national championship team as well as the Fab 5, who would've thought he would one day be GM of one of the premier franchises in the NBA?

I am excited about Pelinka.

As I posted in another thread, I like his youth and the fact that he is an agent with contacts all over the league and recent experience with cap and associated issues.

He played D1 ball at Michigan if I remember right, he got minutes also. I like the fact that he will hopefully bring new ideas, new plans and be aggressive.

Great hire, good job Magic!

I think the real Laker question is does Pelinka hire @EricPincus to run the cap for the Lakers. #RealTalk

Just wondering he has to give up all his agents right?
I bet Magic made this move knowing that Rob as an agent will sell players on LA.

Interesting

Let's see what happens in free agency this year

He will sell his agency and make a lot of money.

His connection to Ariza, Gordon and Harden with a financial link to their shorter success makes the Lou trade smell.

Does Pelinka understand the CBA/cap? My guess would be yes but I'm not sure if agents have the same level of knowledge as GMs.
