It seems more and more likely that the next move we can expect is a GM change. I'd like to hope that the second move would be to get an actual NBA architect/tactician on the coaching staff will soon follow that step. At THAT point, I'm all for whatever changes they think necessary.
I'm with you. I just worry that a GM change will have a negative impact on AD more than anyone. He is Nico's guy. Nico risked his career and reputation on AD. But AD is exactly who we all thought he was. Extremely talented but never on the court.
So if we fire Nico does AD pretty much pull a Kawhi on us? Just play when he wants to, which is never. Then his value continues to decrease. I'm starting to wonder if we pull the plug on AD sooner rather than later. if we hire a new GM that is.
