    From Adrian Wojnarowksi
    Link : Trail Blazers Interview Agent For GM Job

    The Portland Trail Blazers have interviewed agent Noah Croom for the franchise's vacant general manager’s job, league sources told Yahoo! Sports.

    Croom has met with Blazers officials at least once in Portland, sources said.

    Before joining the Goodwin Sports agency, Croom was an assistant general manager from 1995-2000 with the Vancouver and Memphis Grizzlies. He was a candidate for several front-office jobs in recent years, but chose to stay as an agent.  
     The candidacy of Croom comes after the Phoenix Suns (Lon Babby) and Golden State Warriors (Bob Myers) hired agents in high-profile personnel jobs. Croom also has a law degree from the University of Virginia. He did his undergraduate work at Stanford.
    Personally, I've never heard of Croom before, so I can't say whether he would be a good hire or not. Anyone here have anything on this guy?

    Only have my gut feeling on this one D.  If in fact Croom has been seriously considered (Wojo is as reliable a source as you'll find), it seems to indicate what owner Paul Allen has maintained all along...that he is NOT selling the team.  Croom seems to compliment hands-on owner Allen very well, much the way Cho did.  Watching this search and subsequent hire very closely, as it will be both the first domino to fall and an indicator of the direction this franchise is taking.

    At the max maybe 30 people will comment on that  petition. 0% chance Olshey will look at the thread and trade Batum to please those people.

    Im not against trading it if it is for the right price

    I really really think trading our pick is the wisest and most effective thing to do. This years draft is a poor standard. Ohsley needs to get in a real powerhouse starting defensive centre. It''s all so interesting and I am very excited to see wha...

  7. Damian Lillard's entourage beat up some brothers.

    Started by RipCity 14 on 05/20/13 at 2:27 PM

    If the thread said Babbitt beat some brothers you all would be expecting a hate crime. I do not see why this is a big deal. Police beat their wives daily and we do not have a thread about that and that is a real issue plaguing society.

  8. Keep Batum!

    Let Olshey bet on Batum and when he is unemployed then maybe he will release he messed up.
