If AD is still on the roster at the beginning of next season then they likely failed.

I don't think this is true. Putting an artificial deadline on yourself, forcing yourself into a corner, is the perfect recipe for getting screwed in a trade. (See Harrison, N, re Luka.) The deadline should be whenever the high value (plus more) suitor comes calling. There is availability, but only AD to be had, with no clearance sale looming.

If Dumont will find a way to get Presti, then we'll be good. Presti gets it. He always is willing to deal, and provide you what you want - but it has to be at HIS price. That's the posture that must be created. Once Lindsey was gone, Nico never understood it.
