THE 76ERS ARE close to signing former Portland Trail Blazers
executive Tom Penn as their new general manager, according to
a source. Penn would replace president Rod Thorn, who is set
to move to an advisory role with the team.
Thorn is in the last of his 3-year contract reached with
then-owner Ed Snider. The contract also called for Thorn to
serve another 5 years as a team adviser. It is believed Thorn
will move immediately to his new role when Penn becomes GM.
七六人現在與拓荒者前籃球事務副總裁 Tom Penn 接近達成協議。
Penn 將取代 Rod Thorn 目前兼任的 General Manager 的位置,
而後者將會接任顧問職(實質上就是準退休狀態)
Thorn 兩年前與當時的七六人老闆, Comcast Spectacor的主席
Ed Snider 簽下三年約,這張約到現在剩下一年。
這張合約當中還有另外的條款,七六人將會繼續聘請他,擔任五年的顧問職。
目前普遍都相信 Thorn 將會在 Tom Penn 接任 GM 後,直接轉任顧問職。
Penn, who was released as vice president of basketball
operations by Portland in 2010, is said to be a collective
bargaining agreement guru and a master capologist. He would
come into a good situation with the Sixers on that front, as
the team's moves this offseason have left it with many
short-term contracts.
For seven seasons (2000-2007), Penn worked for the Memphis
Grizzlies, part of the time as the team's assistant general
manager. He also has worked for ESPN, analyzing how the CBA
and salary cap affected teams in their desire to make moves.
Penn 在 2010 年在拓荒者籃球事務副總裁任內,
被 Blazers Organization 解職。
他一向被認為是一個簽約談判高手,並且對薪資管理有獨門作法。
> capologist 是媒體造字 http://tinyurl.com/bupvxam 詳解
今年七六人為了明年與後年的操作彈性,
累積了一些短約與到期約,這將會在未來的兩年內,
提供 Tom Penn 一個大顯身手的舞台。
他在 2000-07 年之間,是在曼菲斯灰熊隊工作,
擔任 David West 底下的助理GM。
他目前在 ESPN 擔任球評,主司有關 CBA 與 Salary Cap相關議題,
並且為各隊的動作與 CBA 相關制度的影響進行評論。
Penn was also a lawyer and a player agent.
The source said that Penn was in Philadelphia and that a deal
could be very close.
Pen 還曾經擔任過律師以及球員的經紀人。
消息來源指出雙方已經非常接近達成協議。
