He said he wants the team to be competitive as quickly as possible with that six-man unit anchoring the direction and the decision making going forward.Cronin also touched on his draft approach, discussing what the team might do if it landed two lottery picks, including admitting trading a potential second lottery pick from New Orleans if that option becomes available.
