President of basketball …

President of basketball operations/general manager Bob Myers provided the following anecdote during a podcast appearance on “The TK Show” with Tim Kawakami of The Athletic: “The night we traded (Alec) Burks and (Glenn) Robinson — that was a little bit of a gut-wrenching thing for the people on the team. Those guys were good players and good guys and did everything we asked of them. “And I had a moment, too. I started questioning. We’re really kind of ripping our fabric apart here. And (assistant general manager) Mike Dunleavy — who played 15 years — said, ‘Here’s the other side of that coin: The fact that guys are in tears — and we’ve only won 10 games or 12 games and don’t want to leave — says something about what you guys have created.’ “So I’m proud of that part … it sucks to lose. But what makes it good or bad are the people.”
