Widely respected around NBA. Has a lot to offer. So now that he's fired he's well respected? Everything we have heard has been he isn't respected. So my question is is the lack of respect actually towards Martins so teams attempt to jerk us around or become difficult to deal with making it impossible for any GM that doesn't explicitly tell Martins to ***** off? I think the next guy we get has to be a veteran that has enough pull to actually tell Martins to ***** off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's been confirmed today that Martins was the one who pushed for the Skiles hire and Rob was against it. Rob and Skiles clashed a lot. Martins is doing the 3pm news conference today. **** ain't gonna change. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Soul Bro 1,422 Report post Posted April 13, 2017 In Robbins' recent story he finally states explicitly that Martins hired Skiles even though Hennigan protested the move. Where are you reading that? Here's what I'm reading from Robbins: "Hennigan’s decision to hire Jacque Vaughn as head coach in 2012 was disastrous. It would have been difficult for any coach to win with the players Vaughn was provided, but Vaughn didn’t provide the accountability the young players needed. In addition, Hennigan did not require Vaughn to fill out his assistant-coaching staff with highly experienced assistant coaches who could have helped develop the young players, would have helped Vaughn build a winning culture and would have helped Vaughn with the inevitable X’s-and-O’s learning curve that any inexperienced head coach faces. When the Magic hired Scott Skiles in 2015 — a move made with Martins’ strong backing — Hennigan and Skiles clashed repeatedly, and Skiles ultimately resigned after one season in the job." http://www.orlandosentinel.com/sports/orlando-magic/os-sp-magic-fire-rob-hennigan-0414-story.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HeHateMe 697 Report post Posted April 13, 2017 Damn right and this is why I stood up for Rob. Doesn't matter who you bring until the mindset on how this organization manage changes. Get the ***** out of the way!! Stay in your lane!! To an extent yes but Rob still made plenty of crap decisions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
