I thought about my response before I posted it and it was germinated listening to 9 years of bullshit excuses for Olshey's poor performance. Then came the loss to denver and dame making the noise he did. And I've seen posters here who like Olshey and think he's a good GM say several weeks ago that Olshey was "certain" to go over the tax line this year given the circumstances. No way he wouldn't because of the stakes and now, I'm seeing people starting to rationalize him potentially NOT going over the tax line and likely using the possibility that he doesn't as proof there wasn't any good option....a catch-22 where Olshey does no wrong and has perpetual job security I don't know what will happen between now and the trade deadline, but I'd really like to be surrounded by the magical moving goalposts that surround Olshey
Yeah you thought about your response but might have missed the message of my statement. Or I was unclear. All I said was he has a point and then made fun of the way he makes them. Then I explained it to you in end by saying " Many other issues have led to where we are now." I agree with you it's been 9 years of this and it needs to end. Hopefully sooner than later and without losing Lillard. It was all simply a sarcastic way of putting him down but in the end he does indeed have a point. I'm just tired of hearing the same point. One thing I would think would be the end of Olshey would be losing Lillard. Sad but maybe true?
sorry if I missed your point...been a rough day so far honestly, I do not think Olshey would get fired even if Dame demands a trade. IMO, Jody Allen and the Vulcans are detached from anything but finances. I wish they would sell, even if there are remote risks to that
Probably better to trade him with a second sound pick for a player making a few million less. Should wait until the trade deadline, in case another trade impacts this.
