Steve wishes another person would’ve been running the show before the Grizzlies left Vancouver (video here): “I think the team was unfairly taken and I think the commissioner would probably agree with that – at the time it was probably difficult for him to feel that way, but they had one general manager in the history of the franchise and they never succeeded. I think the city deserved another chance – another general manager, some fresh blood, an opportunity to succeed, and see how the fans and corporate sponsors responded. I thought that the fans were great considering they were a losing franchise, perennially so. It’s a shame and I think all of the players feel that way.”
