He's actually trying to compete, isn't he? Who's gonna tell him?
I really don't understand Portland and what they are trying to do. I don't think this is on Cronin, he can't be that delusional. I think owners want them to be at least a little bit competitive. Don't want to hear about tank. Sort of like Toronto. Some thought that Mavs would get 1 or 2 picks to take JRue for some average players and trash contracts, but reality proved to be very different.
Great move for Boston. They have huge flexibility going forward now. If Simons works, great. If not, it shouldn't be difficult to flip his expiring salary at TDL for a better player as they still have majority of their picks going forward. Or just let him expire and walk in the summer if they prefer.
