Harris Farewell News Conference




For those so inclined, I would highly recommend giving a listen to Larry's farewell news conference. The man has taken a lot of criticism during the team's recent struggles, but the reality is that it will be at least a couple years before we can accurately judge his tenure as GM.

Much of the team as it stands now was put together by Harris (Mo, Villanueva, Bogut, Yi, Simmons, Ivey, Sessions, Mason, Bell, Gadzuric) and their success or failure moving forward will be Larry's real legacy, even if he is no longer around to watch it unfold. I personally think the man did a reasonably good job as GM as far as positioning this team for success in the future and while our coming week-long retrospective will poke fun at Mason's infamous 'snake in the grass' comments, it's not at all meant to be a cheap shot at Larry himself.

For an excellent, intelligent, and objective look back at the Larry Harris era check out our fellow bloggers at http://thebratwurst.com/. Probably one of the best reviews yet of the man's tenure as GM.
