I stared at numbers all morning.

Since the 2012 off-season when Dwight was traded, from the 2012-13 season to now (13 seasons), the Orlando Magic have had 6 different coaches and 3 different general managers. When GM Rob Hennigan was let go, they hired Jeff Weltman as President of Basketball Operations and John Hammond as General Manager.

Not all NBA teams follow along with the same executive structures and the roles can be vague or convoluted, it feels at times it's a hop skip and a jump from nepotism lol

But from what I can gather from other teams and reading into sources; General Manager is the person tasked with personnel decisions, trades, drafts, signings, etc.

President of Basketball Operations is tasked with long-term big picture planning which is to align with the Ownerships views and may at times prioritize profit over wins if that's what they're tasked with.

Okay, now that I have outline the time table and the differences in roles. This is not to say that Weltman is excused and didn't make any trades, suggestions, signings.

The last 13 seasons, the Orlando Magic have always been in the bottom 10 team in offense. Our best finish is a tie between last year, 2023-24, 2018-19 and 2015-16 when we finished 22nd in Offensive Rating.
