There is no way we know those details, so again, based on what I saw THIS season...I am very happy this total clean up is happening.
Right. I think Rick is a great tactician, but do we want a repeat of the Rondo situation under the new GM where Rick just refuses to make it work because he didn't sign off on it? Or the GM brings in his scouting department, they spend a lot of time researching and selecting draftpick that Rick refuses to play? It's not fair to the new GM, and it's really not fair to Rick if that's his expectation of how much influence he should have over the organization if he's not going to have it.
