Summer League Game 1: 7pm CST on ESPN

[KillerLeft]

The Cuban/Nelson combination could be very frustrating, especially the whole plan powder stuff.  But Nelson had a good eye for European talent and I don't remember them making a catastrophic move the level of the Doncic trade.  You say they would not make the PJ/Gafford moves (I say what if Linsey was there) but I suggest there is a much bigger chance that Brunson and Dorian are still here (Nelson was a huge Brunson fan).  That team is probably better (and significantly younger) than the current team.  If its not, its only because Nico fell back asswards into Flagg.

Look, there are some very compelling points to point to in order to support displeasure with Harrison's job here, and I'm neither trying to argue against those points or change anyone's mind. Mine is more of plea for us to enjoy the moment for a change, and even then maybe it's more just a statement of how I'm approaching the season, not a call to arms for anyone else. 

Having said that, I'd submit that the Nash fiasco might've been worse than the Luka trade. The Brunson thing, too, for that matter. You might not like what Harrison got for Luka, and you might not think he got enough, but he did get something. And, before the trade deadline that everyone loves and have now decided to attribute to Lindsey, it's now widely known that the main goal was to send two 1st round picks for Kyle Kuzma, who by all accounts shut it down by saying he didn't want to play here. I have no doubt Lindsey was involved in the deals that did happen, but he was also undoubtedly involved in that offer, as well as the prioritization of it. So, honest question: Had that deal gone through, would that have been Harrison's fault, or Lindsey's? The guy who's in charge is in charge, end of the day.
