But let's face it, the season ended when Jordan reneged. There was no way to construct a truly competitive roster at that point.

Two things: 1) Jordan--I wonder how much better this team would've been with Jordan instead of Zaza. 50 wins? Maybe, maybe not. No guarantees.
2) The Fade--For me, it wasn't a difficult calculation to make to see this team regress as the season wore on. The combination of new players, older players, injury-recovering players, injury-prone players, and low-quality depth is actually a pretty good recipe for running out of gas in March.
It's an honest difference of perspective, I guess.
