New Wolves boss Tom Penn: Sure sounds like a done deal Posted on May 17th, 2009 – 9:47 PM By Jerry Zgoda From everything I’m hearing, Tom Penn is signed, sealed and delivered (or at least completely agreed to, give me some poetic license for the Stevie Wonder reference). I’m guessing a Tuesday press conference, just hours before the team learns its draft lottery fate. I’m still not completely positive the McHale situation is decided. I’d think they’d want to do this once, call a press conference and lay out their new head guy, new top personnel guy (Hoiberg) and their coaching situation. But knowing the Wolves they could announce Penn and Hoiberg with their new titles and say the coaching situation is TBD by the new boss. http://ppt.cc/5ofQ Tom Penn簡介： Tom Penn於2000年開始即跟隨Jerry West在灰熊球團工作，2007年5月被 拓荒者現任GM-Kevin Pritchard延攬為助理總管，是拓荒者GM最得力的助 手之一，也是拓荒者這幾年建隊的大功臣之一。在進NBA球團工作前，他 曾作過律師、球員經紀人等工作。 Tom Penn擅長CBA規則，在協助球團省錢、找尋TE方面很有他的一套，2007 年選秀當天，拓荒者從太陽那裡同時得到James Jones和Rudy Fernandez的 這樁交易，便是在Tom Penn的協助下完成。 由於他在Jerry West、Kevin Pritchard等人底下做過事，對這兩位GM的經 營、管理、選才模式都有一定程度了解，或許可以從這兩位GM身上移植一 些經驗到灰狼球團，帶給灰狼幫助。 --
