We'll be damn lucky if anyone even comes close to being all-star material on this team this season. We are starving for a star but the current strategy has very little chance of yielding us one.

Building a team to compete for a championship is one thing but building one to compete for the 8th seed is another.
I predict we will be in a position to be sellers at TDL.
Thing is that Dirk accepted a large pay cut for that very purpose.

The FO has tried to leap frog back into the championship window, but I just think that's been more of a pipe dream the last few seasons. I'm actually OK with a mediocre team as long as half the team doesn't sit on the damn injured list all season long.
