abdcskins Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 Beal making $50 million+ a year is a joke. Who comes up with these absurd contracts? I realize that is the supermax whatever, but I still think it is dumb. I knew five years ago he wasn't worth it. Wizards front office is trash. And yeah we have already lose the Rui trade. A clearly talented player who wasn't used or developed properly by an incompetent coaching staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bearrock Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 That's a much better caliber hire than I thought would be the eventual outcome. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRobi21 Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 (edited) Don't know how time consuming being a basketball executive is but I'd feel better if he'd just handle the Wiz, and let the Mystics and GoGo people run their teams themselves. Also, nuke this thing and rebuild! Edited May 25, 2023 by CRobi21 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CRobi21 Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 Read that Winger is in more of an "overseer" role. And will be tasked in finding an actual GM. The further away Ted is the better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't need GM changes, your last sentence is more what this sounds like. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abdcskins Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 I predict he does a crappy job. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hersh Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 There is no reason not to be optimistic based on the reporting. I understand being cautious, but this is the type of hire that fans have wanted and the reporting is he has the authority to make any changes he wants.

“Misdirection” Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 Winger seems more like a Ted replacement than a Tommy replacement. I like it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaceman Spiff Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 From what I’ve read and understand, I like this hire, too. This is the neck to choke if things don’t go well, seems like Ted is taking a backseat. Or at the very least a publicly willing fall guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think all the negative press and social media talk question whether Ted actually cared about winning finally got to him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justice98 Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 (edited) Winger has one arm tied behind his back if he has to agree to keeping Unseld Jr on as head coach. You're still not doing it right if he doesn't have authority to make a change if he wants. Now, he may think Unseld Jr is the right man for the job, which would make me question him right off the bat.

@DCGoldPants Posted May 26, 2023 Share Posted May 26, 2023 Hoffman had a solid 90min on this today. David Aldridge and Ava Wallace as guests. Both say they hear this means Winger has control to make the biggest of changes if he deems necessary. Also that it doesn't mean he does that immediately. Get him here. Working with these current group on the draft. Maybe he makes the final decision draft night. But it'll be a summer and maybe season of evaluations.
