Leszczur napisal posta, ktorego chcialbym skomentowac:

Seriously, can anyone explain why this guy is still running a
basketball team?

Zmiana wlasciciela mu pomogla sie wybronic?
Bo po Arenasie rzeczywiscie jego los wydawal sie przesadzony... a tak
moze powiedziec, ze za Arenasa sciagnal 2 starterow!

The deal is classic Grunfeld -- taking a "win now" approach with a
team that's not even close to win-now mode,

Um, przejscie w win-now jest wlasnie decyzja, ktora sie podejmuje gdy
sie dotychczas nic nie wygrywalo... ;-)

Okafor and Ariza combine to make $42 million this year and next,
soaking up all of Washington's cap space for this year and next. The
departing Lewis was due $22.7 million, but only $13.9 million of that
was guaranteed, so the Wizards ate close to $30 million in salary with
this deal.

Czyli innymi slowy kupili 2 przecietniakow za 7 baniek rocznie.
To taka zbrodnia? Przy krotkich kontraktach?

additionally, it also takes them out of amnesty auction bids,

No i? Spodziewal sie ktos bitwy o Rasharda????

For that, they get a middling but overpaid starting center, and a
grossly overpaid wing defender with perhaps the worst shot selection
in basketball.

Um, to sie powinno zmienic jako 4 opcja w druzynie, nie?
Moze wrocic do tego co gral w Lakers...

trade: It did nothing to solve Washington's biggest problem, shooting.
If anything, it exacerbated it.

Wydraftuja SG i maja nadmiar wysokich, wiec spokojnie sobie sciagna
kilku graczy z rzutem z dystansu. Co to za ocena trejdu w prozni?
 

This wasn't supposed to happen when Ted Leonsis took over; he had
followed a patient rebuilding program with the NHL's Washington
Capitals and everybody expected the same for the Wizards.

Um, 3 sezony na dnie i 6 wydraftowanych wysoko mlodziakow sie nie
kwalifikuja?

inexplicably extended Grunfeld's contract based on one halfway-decent
month to end the season while half the teams around the Wizards were
tanking,

Tego nie zauwazylem przed trejdem... rzeczywiscie dziwna decyzja.

He overpaid for the assets, too. Remember, a few weeks ago people were
talking about how New Orleans might use the 10th pick to persuade
somebody to take Okafor and Ariza off its hands.

Serio? Plotki z netu ustalaja juz wartosc aktywow?

As for the Hornets, this was a wondrous move that offloaded two
problem contracts, cleaned out room in a crowded frontcourt for rookie
Anthony Davis, and gives them almost unlimited cap room going forward.

... ktory wydadza gorzej niz Okafor/Ariza.

Zwrociliscie uwage ile druzyn bedzie mialo w offseason kase do wydania
gdy nie bedzie wielu dobrych graczy do kupienia?

Grunfeld said the Wizards are better than they were yesterday, and in
a very narrow sense he's correct: This deal does incrementally improve
his roster. But there are far more efficient ways to produce the same
improvement, and instead Grunfeld has essentially handcuffed the
franchise to two more years of mediocrity so he could win a news
conference.

GM podpisal kontrakt na 2 lata i sklecil druzyne na 2 lata, ktorej
ambicja jest powalczyc o playoffy... Hmmmmmm...
