I know jokes, but there are only 30 GM jobs available in the league.

It is totally a prestige position for a front office member.

Only those who have already done it, or know they are next up, would ever turn down any GM job.

Plus it takes Dolan forever to fire someone who is clearly not doing well at the job.

A lot of it is. He's pretty respected for his contacts and relations and pretty much the second he got here we had no problem working out candidates or getting actual free agents to talk with us and not just use as a tool for leverage

Ken Catanella is credited with some of the good contracts we've put together, but Perry has gotten the credit for the coherent off-season

Whoa, the Warriors offered Klay for PG

On Thursday’s episode of The Woj Pod, host Adrian Wojnarowksi revealed – and George confirmed – that before the Thunder acquired George in a trade with Indiana, the Warriors offered guard Klay Thompson in an effort to swing a deal to Golden State.

Knicks GM job must be terrible. You get ripped in the media every day for poo poo you didn't even consider doing, you have like two years to show results in a job that tends not to show results until 3-4 years down the line, You have no autonomy to do make decisions because the great idiot James Dolan will immediately fire you for doing whatever he doesn't approve of, which is mostly random except having a beer before a game is bad and but sexual harassment is fine.

Except being able to laugh at himself is the exact opposite of his personality from every single account I've ever read ? He's boring yet exceedingly petty in most of his interactions.

The Knicks job isn't ideal, but you've got Porzingis and all your own picks and ownership seems ok with just dumping Melo out wherever so that's a decent place to start with.

Those deals are simultaneous cap killers and probably franchise killers if the team sucks enough to make KP not want to resign. Then, as a GM, you get blamed for that too.

It's like all the awards shows keep having to pretend to make a giant mistake at the end of the show for that ratings boost. Jimmy Kimmel, Steve Harvey etc.

TV ratings are so awful now that they're purposely misspelling names to obfuscate things:
