Quote:This is perfectly said.  When we picked Luke at 2 there was zero chance that Monroe would stay.

 

And if he had not picked Luke at 2, what was the precise chance that Monroe would stay?  I can't help but notice that he seems pretty insistent on testing FA where he is right now.  Wouldn't we all be talking about what a mess Caldwell made if he'd not drafted Luke (the supposed best player for you BAP guys) and then Monroe still insisted on testing FA and leaves anyway?

 

This is the lunacy of these things.  People with no possible way to know what happened, or what might have happened, talk as if they have access to perfect clarity on the entire thing.
