TDL Archived: The 2nd Rnd Pick Yankee Swap

[cow]

I think the one thing that the tanking crowd seems to do a lot of handwaving at is this idea that "Luka will understand" when there is absolutely zero evidence of that.  Seeing the shortcomings of this roster and being willing to throw away a season of your professional career while you are one of the best players in the world are two veryyyyy different things.  This is a kid who has been a winner at every level since the age of 16, I have no idea why people think it will be cool with him to just lay back and watch ping pong balls roll in.

I don't know if Luka will understand.  I think the reality of the situation is setting in.  My perspective is that if we keep operating like we have since acquiring him, we need to be prepared for his eventual trade demands.  I'm not saying that is happening soon, but it will come.  I just don't think you can turn this chicken shit roster into chicken salad.  I'd at least have the conversation with him and if he green lights "the process", start selling off assets.  

I absolutely do not think Mark Cuban will tank.
