The elephant in the room is that Cousins values loyalty above all and by going "shopping" today, Vlade and co. have all but broken any trust he would have left in organization.
Yeah, was going to say that myself. Either this has been invented wholecloth or this idiot owner absolutely 100% can't stand the slightest hint of hope popping up in a fanbase. The last time the team showed fight and hope, he immediately fired Malone for winning the wrong way. The team comes together and starts fighting here, and boom, immediately the Boogie trade rumors start. He's not only ravingly incompetent, he's cruel and has no people sense whatsoever.
That whole come together and fight after the ASB? how do you think that goes if in fact Boogie knows he was actively shopped and nearly dumped a few days before? How does the summer extension go? If this is true, this is a little amateur idiot ****ing everything up again, and if indeed these are the last hours of me calling this fanbase a "we", I am here to tell you now you guys are forever screwed until he mercifully kicks off. I've been in New York and seen what decades of incompetent ownership (Dolan) will do to a franchise. It never lets up. A terrible owner can and will mess up everything forever, and its not remotely fair to you or anybody else.
