They had tons of caproom, couldn’t land anybody of significance yet somehow still managed to maintain their asset-ridden status. To get ORL what they want we’d need some maneuvering in terms of outgoing players and taking back salary ballast in order to create comparable value to a 1st round pick.
OTOH we‘re also in the hunt for the playoffs which limits the ability to blow up the locker room with a massive trade that hurts short term chemistry.
This would be MUCH easier if they would have done their homework over the years by acquiring more assets but here we are.
They chosed to go for players instead of asset.
That's fine with me.
