You can call it an experiment. Obviously head office thought it needed more at the trading deadline yet more should have been done prior. I guess DL really sold you on it ? He has a way of making a stand still seem like no better options were available.

Whereas you know for a fact better options were available? List one or two of these options, please, and how you know they were better.

You know about Conley right ? Just to hold on to Exum ? I'm ok about Grayson. Did you see how little Niko got traded for or how about Otto Porter Jr. We could have got these guys for very little. You remember this right ? DL being a lil too lax and perhaps too conservative. Let's get real Exum is a bust

If it's Conley for Rubio, Favors, and Exum (that seemed to be about the deal proposed)? This is before Exum became ded. That seems like a lot to give up for Conley.

Parker and Portis were both above-average players this year. Who do we give that's equivalent for Porter?

However, I agree on Mirotic. He seems a steal for four second-rounders, if he resigns. If not, that was a bad trade for Milwaukee.

Give up expiring and picks for Porter maybe jabari too ? Though I don't like jabari.

Exum sucks even before he got dead again . As I said prior Conley would take us to the next level. An old Conley with a bit of an overpayment is much more potent than a current Rubio or a future Exum which is more bust ...

I agree with everything you said there.

I'm not saying to crucify DL but he could have pulled the trigger on something to get us over the hump. He has a tendency of doing nothing and selling us the impression that he couldn't improve us. I don't buy it he must do more this off season or we will lose our strides in the west. Plus Mitchell and Gobert will get pissed
 
In response to the OP, this season was a success based on expectations. If we think of pre-snyder, post-sloan experience, we made the playoffs, we won 50 games. That's success. If we think of expectations based on last season's success, this year was a wet blanket.

#D.O.N. is the answer to all our challenges!

No way I trade Favors, Rubio AND Exum for Conley. That’s just silly. I would have done any combination of 2 out of the 3, but not all 3.

And no matter how Exum’s career pans out, we’ve just invested too much time and money not to give him another shot.

I’m glad DL didn’t pull the trigger on that one.

Give Exum another shot? At what? Point guard? And let’s say he’s able to play half a season next season, still give him a chance because he improved to being able to stay healthy for half a season?

At some point we just need to fold. I personally don’t want Exum on the roster anymore. The position he takes up on the bench is just too much. He needs to go

Agreed, enough is enough. He is negating this team's growth and progression
