Building a successful NBA franchise goes beyond the talent measures of those in charge. It takes levels of cohesion and competence that surpass the roster that walks onto basketball courts, and the coaches who roam the sidelines.
New Pelicans Executive Vice President of Basketball Operations David Griffin doesn’t have it all figured out just yet, but he appears to have gotten off on the right foot.
In his introductory press conference, Griffin indicated position titles were not as important to him as having as many of the right basketball figures inside one building.
I’m told potential Pelicans front office addition Trent Redden is in New Orleans this week.
