Getting the gang back together wouldn't have "guaranteed" anything other than future payroll restrictions.
So why wouldn't the same Indiana trade been available this year as welll? You may not have gotten brand/kaman/ mayo. But certainly the collison deal was there I expect. I don't understand why folks give the mbt such kudos for putting together a roster after the fact, but somehow if they had Tyson they would have been braindead and stuck with the same team.

There seems to be no reason that they couldn't have been just as creative as they are now, except they would have had a decent center anchoring the thing. And a piece tht would have been valuable in its own right.
