Does this mean that a potential trade for AD becomes even harder?

I assume Nets org had the mentality to not deal with trader Danny in the long term...

Considering that Langdon worked under Marks, not King, I doubt it has any effect
I'm bitter.

No effect whatsoever. Wrong FO, and it’s not like there’s any high level executive in the NBA unfamiliar with how the Nets trade turned out.

David Griffin will still be the decision maker. Langdon is just going to be the one doing all the more tedious stuff while main franchise building, free agency, drafting and trading decisions will be Griffin's and Benson's.

The more I read about NOLA's good hires, the more I am hopeful that we will be able to land AD.
I think that Langdon will do fine.

so everything comes around full circle sort of. The Nets FO guy gets back the products of all those draft picks 'they' gave Danny.
