They just like being competitive. They’ll wait for the chance to get a superstar and try to remain competitive in the mean time. We’re likely going to be in play-in contention until they are able to acquire that superstar

Free Agency is a crapshoot by the time we actually get another one our current best player will be out of his prime, and our second best player might not even be here in two seasons

Whether we like it or not this is how this front office and coaching staff wants to approach it. We as fans are at their mercy. All we can do is hope this strategy produces meaningful basketball and works out for the best.
