The reality is we are an aging team without any young prospects or draft picks. We are also over the cap and can't make a significant signing. We are not a destination where players are going to come for below market value, or force their way here. There really isn't a likely path forward to being better. Any trade we make is most likely going to be a net neutral/net negative trade.
We've known this for awhile and is the reason there is a large number of posters here saying to blow it up.
There are some ways that we can get better without a major overhaul, but those scenarios aren't very likely to either happen or make a big difference:
- coaching change
- buy low candidates
- Don commits to defense
- Rudy develops an outside shot
