The ownership bid of George Postolos in Charlotte promises a massive overhaul of the organization, and league sources expect that should the former Houston Rockets (http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/teams/hou/;_ylt=ApydNVsvgptbvEaOlYIGf2_TjdIF) president take over the franchise two of his top candidates for general manager will be San Antonio Spurs (http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/teams/sas/;_ylt=Ar17vgk611ILqcOG7DIv.EPTjdIF) assistant GM Dennis Lindsey and Rockets assistant GM Sam Hinkie.


Also:


League executives say between now and then Brown is determined to move point guard D.J. Augustin (http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/players/4471/;_ylt=Atr.9_yvOceT4cnZ0f_NkazTjdIF) for a veteran big man. Michael Jordan and Rod Higgins wanted to draft Brook Lopez (http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/players/4472/;_ylt=AizZrRS5QkxIPSET_rc8Jc3TjdIF) with the ninth pick in 2008, but Brown demanded they pass on the center for Augustin. Bobcats management had gone so far to tell Lopez’s agents they were picking him.

The FO can't be all that bad if teams are still cherry-picking our execs.

My thoughts as well.

Part of me wants this to happen just so that Michael Jordan will be out of a job. He's an "absentee" basketball executive. As a result, he's been a bust in two stops. Enough already. Seeing as how Larry Brown is probably ready to jump ship anyway, clean house!

Augustin...hmm.

Ian and Finley for Augustin and Graham? :downspin:

IF...and like all rumor talk...a big IF...If the Spurs could land Augustin, I think that would be a great pick up for either Fin (or) Mase with Ian. They could move George Hill to the 2 spot and have DJ as Tony's primary back up. All for nothing but bench warmers. Who's this Graham cat though? Just curious, I haven't heard of him.

Yet more proof that when it comes to personnel issues, any GM's response to Brown should essentially be "STFU and coach the team."

Brown was the guy who sold Pop on Jackie Butler. Thanks, Larry

If Lindsey leaves does that mean we get Scola back?

He'd basically be a filler to get the trade done. He has played pretty limited minutes this year for Charlotte.

+1. A combo of Augustin, Hill, Manu, and Blair off the bench would be deadly...

One of the funniest descriptions of Larry's lust for other players and then regrets about it was when someone said Larry would take over a team, and immediately try to trade everyone, and then spend the rest of the time trying to get them all back. :lol
