"A complete disaster"? Come on. JB is leaving, but we don't even know the details of whether there is a sign and trade or not. JB had the childhood dream of playing for NYK. NYK tampered like crazy to make it happen. That's not on Nico.
Also, the offseason isn't a disaster, it has barely started. McGee is signed. Hardy was drafted. Dragic not signing isn't a disaster because we don't know what is next.
The offseason is an INCOMPLETE right now. So some people aren't jumping to conclusions with very little data. Let's talk once the roster is set, then we can grade the offseason.
Gotta support this take. All of this whining about the offseason is really surprising to me. That is why I started the thread with the poll asking people to assess the performance of the MBT. I was surprised that inspite of the constant negative rhetoric, Nico and his team received an overwhelmingly positive vote of approval.
Another point on JB is that he was lost partly because he was not an RFA, which is on Donnie. Nico showed with Hardy they were not going to make the same mistake as the previous regime.
I think it is more of a symptom of "same ol' fans" rather than "same ol' mavs".
