Fultz4thewin 2,464 Report post Posted March 31, 2017 Anyone wants to give Vogel full control and let him assume GM position too? I'm against giving coaches roster privileges in almost all cases. They're often bad at it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Soul Bro 1,419 Report post Posted March 31, 2017 Zarren sounds like a genius and great candidate. Given what Boston has built (or rebuilt), I'd love to consider him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Magicman28 295 Report post Posted March 31, 2017 Anyone wants to give Vogel full control and let him assume GM position too? No. I don't know if that has ever worked. Stay in your line. It's not always true but most of the time it's pretty sound advice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Soul Bro 1,419 Report post Posted March 31, 2017 ESPN just launched a list of upcoming candidates to watch for GM positions. Here's the scoop on Zarren: "Mike Zarren, Boston Celtics assistant general manager/team counsel When Zarren graduated Harvard Law, he had his choice of plumb jobs from glitzy firms but opted for an unpaid internship with the Celtics, the team he grew up worshiping. A decade later, Zarren -- the leading vote-getter by a wide margin -- has established himself as a fixture in Boston as an affable, brainy exec with a mastery of the collective bargaining agreement and sharp negotiating skills, and he knows how to spot good basketball operations personnel. Most execs watch home games from a nervous perch in the tunnel, in the dark recesses of the video room or in their office, but Zarren attends them with his dad, Celtics pin on his lapel. He flirted with the opening in Philadelphia in 2013 and has received several nibbles from other teams. He'll undoubtedly continue to appear on short lists, but he's likely to be selective in pursuit of his next opportunity." http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/page/presents18995570/nba-front-office-prospects-watch Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the notorious S.A.C. 89 Report post Posted March 31, 2017 If we don't get rid of Martins too I expect he will want to save money on the new GM hire. That being said he already has the "Welcome Back Kotter" 8 track as a leftover from the Brian Hill #2 signing. He could use it and do what the usual Magic MO is and bring back Otis Smith....lol. I wonder if SVG is tired of coaching because anyone and everyone would want out of Detroit....because it is...well..Detroit. Could we bring him back as GM only? God I hope we finally get rid of Martins...he has run his course here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CTMagicUK 1,480 Report post Posted March 31, 2017 Zarren loves the Celtics. I imagine he's going to stay there until Ainge retires and he gets the head job. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
