My perspective on this is changing as a I get older. I realized I never signed a lifetime contract with the Mavs. If you're gonna keep putting shitty teams out on the court, I'll find something else to entertain me.
Oh, I understand your point, that's not the problem. And, it's a GOOD point!
The difference is I see a 5% chance of making the playoffs, not 20-30%. If I'm right, would that change your outlook some?
Again, I want to see who the coach is and how draft night goes, but I feel like this team is about to be BAD. Not just "they don't really have a chance to compete, but at least they're playing good basketball and are fun to watch," just plain, old BAD. Maybe that's the disconnect. I don't think there's much to give up.
