    I wonder if Cho regrets making the Gerald Wallace deal as Portland GM now. :)

    Great move. If Jordan doens't meddle too much, Cho could be the guy to help him put the Bobcats on the right path.

    But isn't Kevin Pritchard still available? Why not go for Pritchard first? (Perhaps they did and he rejected the Bobcats).

    Solid hire by MJ.

    The Gerald Wallace trade is very ironic now.

    Surely one who has to wonder why you'd have a geek with an engineering and law degree make basketball decisions, when you have perhaps the greatest NBA player ever.

    Why hasn't Pritchard been hired already? He doesn't seem to be in demand.

    Haven't heard that. I'm wondering if it's because team owners can't overlook the fact he picked Oden over Durant.

    I'm surprise the Knicks didn't pick him up.

    The story that he went behind ownership's back with the Brandon Roy contract extension negotiations?

    In hindsight, Oden is what the Trailblazers needed at that time; they didn't need another wing scorer, since they already had Roy when he was great.

    Also, Oden was pretty close to being the unamious pick. When 29 other GMS would have made the same choice, it's not your fault.

    Bismack + Walker + Tyler, Cho did a very good job.

    Charlotte will be one of the worst teams in the league next year, but with a competent GM they will rise in 3 years. Good thing they finally bit the bullet and decided to completely rebuild, wishing Houston would do the same.

    ...and he F's us with his very first pick. Kahn is our whipping boy, Cho is our nemesis.
