I just don't see any way this team ever gets out of this death spiral. At this point I would say blow it up and rebuild with youth...but outside of Anderson--who I love but is unproven--this FO's draft history is really bad. Josh Howard, Devin Harris, then a decade of total failure. I get that they haven't had high picks, but really, you look at their draftees, and it looks like they haven't even been trying.
The great irony of this is Cuban is the one who mis-read the new CBA. They never adjusted to not being able to go over the cap to buy their way out of problems.

As much flack as Presti has gotten for the Harden trade at least he got something very valuable back in Steven Adams on a cheap deal. And whatever ancillary pieces they acquired and flipped. And now selling on Ibaka for assets. MBT has a fundamental misunderstanding of the way the game is played
