Well, let's hope he didn't learn everything he knows from Stu Jackson.

Well, you should be thrilled he did not come from Duffy's agency! ;-)

Yes! An inside track to Leon Powe and Damon Stoudamire. About time.

CBA specialist. Every team needs one of those, and they'll be even more important when the cap stops increasing and we need to start extending our young guys. Sounds like Layden must know him from consulting he did with the Spurs recently.

Thanks for posting. He seems like the guy you want to do all the basketball business stuff and is plenty qualified to do so. He seems like a good hire to help a couple basketball lifers (pure basketball sense) in Thibs and Layden.

Very impressive guy. Provides real business savvy to supplement our basketball brains in the front office. Glen Taylor is really putting together an elite organization.
