Why do you need the team to be complete this season? Did you drop a lot of money on season tickets or something, you've been pretty upset at the incomplete state of the team in year 3 of rebuilding around a 21 year old.


Now you are putting words in my mouth.

How dare I have a differing opinion than you, sorry ATL, won't happen again.

ETA: For the record, it's not a rebuilding mode when you trade 3 straight 1st round draft picks. That's very clearly "win now" mode.

Not trying to, but your complaints have been pretty strong and consistent so I was curious as to why you had such high expectations that the roster should be more balanced than it is based on where we were coming from.

I think differing opinions are a good thing as long as they are backed by reasonable arguments. I've often changed my opinion on this board after a differing opinion leads me to do some research that shows my previous assumptions were wrong.

If we're not as far ahead as we should be because we made mistakes keeping/acquiring Gordon/Holiday/Evans, we shouldn't compound those mistakes by paying a premium to undo the mistakes now. Why does this season matter? LeBron made the Finals and still left Cleveland. KD has made the Finals and may leave OKC. The AD era being any more meaningful than the CP3 era means keeping your eye on the long term prize and being a contending team in 5 years. I'm actually a little concerned that Monty/Demps may make a rash move if they feel pressure to keep their jobs.
