Nothing is ever truly over until the legendary Kingspeed proclaims that it is... Even though we are mathematically not out. Just a technicality.
Which is why I think landing gortat would be easier for us. They can get young and do a real rebuild. They know they aren't winning anytime soon and gortat isn't in the age of the rebuild.
After hearing this delusionary sentiment for well over a decade with no positive improvement(s) to speak of at all, I gotta say JSTFU. Despite 4 attempted full-blown rebuilding campaigns, we have never fielded a team that would have beaten the team we dismantled. Our yearly goal seems to be to rise to mediocrity, but we fall short every time.
Remember the good old days, when Bob Whitsitt put us into the playoffs every single year? If only I could see his picture and hold it to my breast.
