Stoked about Zanik! Look what he did with the Bucks. Excited!!

Based on potentially unreliable sources on twitter it appears they wanted to keep Zanik and this was the best way to do it.There is something weird about this... feels like he can say “look at all the flexibility I gave Zanik and he couldn’t even sign Tobias... he really kinda effed this up”
Maybe they had to adjust titles to keep Zanik and give him a raise...
It’s like the double rainbow... what does it mean?
I guess Zanik was an agent for a long time which may be helpful or not.
In fairness, DL has been at his best in making these type of moves. I still think DL should be in charge of the draft. Hopefully Zanik’s new role allows him to reshape the team better in FA and trades, because DL clearly wasn’t great in those areas.
Fresh outlook, refreshed perspective...
Something to be excited about
Why would you want Lindsey in charge of the draft?
Look what he has done in the draft:
DL draft:
2012: Kevin Murphy
2013: traded 14 and 20 picks for Trey Burke. Could of had Giannis and Gobert. Jazz bought in to the first round for Gobert.
2014: Exum, Hood
2015: Lyles (traded for Mitchell), Hanlan, Diez,
2016: traded pick to Atl for Hill.
2017: Denver offered Mitchell to Utah for Lyles and a first. Traded the pick that became Josh Hart for Bradley.
2018: Allen
Out of 13 picks he has two players. Gobert and Mitchell who are amazing players. But, if not for Sloan we wouldn’t have Gobert and if DL thought Gobert was going to be this good he would have drafted him at 14 or 20 and not traded those picks for Burke.
And Denver called us and offered us Mitchell for Lyles and DL said yes.
So his two good picks were more luck than skill.
