But if he doesn't, I can live with that.
I like to think of it this way: some of the most fun I've had watching basketball in a little while was watching our team at the end of last season, particularly the stretch where AD wasn't there. We sucked. We were a horrible, horrible team. But everyone put in a ton of effort, people were running around, they trusted each other, and they played with an intensity. Sure, a lot of that came from spite: AD had just requested a trade, and they were buckling down together.
What it means though, is this: I can have fun watching a Pels team that's missing pieces, doesn't really work, and even loses a lot, as long as they play hard and play together. So, even if we desperately need spacing, and the coaching is patchy, and there's holes in the offense, I can live with it as long as they're gritty and just go after it every game.
