That is part of it, but having a previous GM/FO that sat flat on their asses when the 2019 FA started also didn't help. There were plenty of FAs that would have chosen us had they understood the market and what players cost.

I'll sing from the mountain tops that 2019 was the FA that destroyed the ability to put real talent around Luka.

They had the money to go after Kemba, so they could have signed anybody. I wanted them to go after Vuc. The Mavs went hard after Delon and Danny Green.

I think we dodged a bullet with Kemba. Vuc would have been nice tho. Obv Delon didn’t work out here.
