Grizzlies Choose Celtics' Wallace As Team's GM By Ronald Tillery June 17, 2007 The Grizzlies have hired Boston's Chris Wallace as their general manager, ending a wide-ranging search to replace outgoing team president Jerry West. An announcement could come today. Several Grizzly insiders confirmed the hire. Wallace had emerged as one of the frontrunners when Phoenix's David Griffin removed his name from consideration and stayed with the Suns. Wallace, who served as GM with the Boston Celtics under executive director Danny Ainge, is expected to oversee the Grizzlies’ day-to-day basketball operations. It is believed, though, that West will remain with the organization as a consultant once his contract expires June 30. West could end up advising Wallace and Griz owner Michael Heisley. After seven seasons as the Celtics’ general manager, Wallace arrives in Memphis as the candidate roundly endorsed by West, a fellow West Virginia native who also strongly favored hiring Marc Iavaroni as head coach. http://tinyurl.com/24mmlb http://www.hoopshype.com/general_managers/chris_wallace.htm -- 恭喜！新GM不是John Nash而是Chris WallaceXD 他历年选秀眼光还不错！ --
