However, I will note that this has been the team's strategy since the title. Spend big on major signings, and to the extent they don't show up, fill out the roster with guys who are cheap and/or on short contracts, so that they are easily gotten rid of if a better opportunity arises. I do not say you are wrong, just note that this is the philosophy that has led to underwhelming teams for ten years.
Don´t think we have to go back to the plan powder debate but the short contracts make all the difference. Players on one year deals cannot really lose/gain any trade value. Can be an advantage if teams make a bad decision. Can be a problem if they make a great decision.
Best recent examples. DFS and Curry. Great assets.Or... Aminu. One year deal. Walked away after a good season.
