    Apparently, after the Vonleh trade, EVERY thread is the meltdown thread....

    I trade Olshey for a 32 years old euro player that won't ever come over.

    For the record, I've always had VERY mixed thoughts about the guy. From the start I hated his hire of Terry. I've ALWAYS blasted his Free Agent choices. I've been mixed on his trade history. The only area in which he was better than average is in the draft. And because I feel that draft and trades are the ONLY way for us to build a team, I was willing to overlook his suckiness in the one area that's least important to our team. If he hadn't fucked himself with his inept Free Agency decisions then I'd be fine with him (not thrilled, but fine).

    Neil's decisions have actually been, on the whole, very, very good.

    Because (for example), Iman Shumpert, Channing Frye, and Jae Crowder (what the Cavs used to make their Lakers and Jazz/Kings deals) are a significantly better trio of assets than, say, Al-Farouq Aminu, Ed Davis, and Maurice Harkless?

    No--we have assets, but they have been mismanaged and overvalued, and the FO is paralyzed by fear of making a bad deal.
