Cool. That has nothing to do with toy calling it a rebuild when you know it's not a rebuild.

Trading a borderline all-star for a pick in a mid draft is rebuilding.

How else do you want to describe it? Trashing assets for no return anytime soon, with a hope for an outlier result years down the road?

Again, how do you describe giving away assets for a team built to win now, for an outlier hope that they can produce something +EV years down the road?

We certainly aren't improving, and certainly not improving on our timeline.

So if we're not rebuilding then we are just intentionally getting worse. That's what happens when you rebuild and the young assets ultimately don't produce. The only time making yourself intentionally worse is OK is when you're....rebuilding (to get higher draft picks to hopefully improve talent).

So yeah, we may not be rebuilding. We may just be getting a lot worse, for...reasons.

Well, for starters over the past 164 gamed worth of a sample size, we have a higher win % when BI doesn't play. If BI is THAT good that we are a "lot worse" if we lose him, then I'd imagine you shouldn't even want to trade him.
