Its easy to sit back and judge but you don't have to sell that city, coach or team to a big time free agent. And beyond that you dont have to sell to a fan base that is use to a bit more.
The old "who else was he going to get" theory? They could have done nothing, saved the money and be 12-25 with no one coming to the games. You really think Ben Gordon or Charlie Villanueva sell tickets? They are not guys who further the cause, put a foundation down to create a better team. These were terrible signings.
