Sure .. in an ideal world the FO wins every trade and makes every +ve FA decision.
However, in reality that doesn't happen. Some decisions are better than average and some are worse. My suggestion was just something about looking at the balance of what was done (solely on the ~12m in Frank+RB salary) and not necessarily being so disappointed that the shiny, expensive toy turned out not to be so interesting as the cheap, matt one.
Otoh, I, biasedly?, agree the Sterling Brown money doesn't seem well spent.
[edit] My overall point in this is that Frank should typically be playing 30m and Reggie 10m, whereas today the numbers were 11m and 28m.
The coaching staff is getting there - Kidd's preseason estimation was that Frank was a throw in to gee-up the last players on the roster in camp, and he [Kidd]'s obviously figured out some stuff since then. But extremely slowly.
Now, that's not to say that Frank doesn't have flaws. He evidently does. He clearly doesn't really feel confident playing with Luka, at all. However, those are all superable, imo.
