Yeah I don't see it either.

With George wrecking the Pacers' leverage there's an outside chance they could do that.

Lol @ the Cavs. In the middle of attempting a blockbuster trade let's part ways with our GM and bring in someone with zero experience. Classic.

Let's hope so. If he resigns next year maybe he'll officially take the GM title.

I'm not surprised by the move to not resign Griffin but it is terrible timing. Also, replacing him with Billups is got to be a joke.

I've already forgotten who, but someone (David Aldridge I think) is reporting that the whole front office is out. That makes a lot less sense than just letting Griffin walk.

Other reports say that Griffin was working hard on a Butler trade an hour ago.

I'm not GM expert but it seems like he is universally praised and respected. Were they just too cheap?
