For me everything is still about time. If you want an empowered GM he needs time to select coach and execute trade/draft/FA strategy for next season. Now there is a possibility you basically run it back (because there is no time this summer) with minor changes for exception money and start moves at TDL. But if "old boys" plan to execute the "big summer" plan and then hire the new GM, it means he is a puppet. Only a voice able to express opinion which will be listened to and accepted or not.
