So can Kaleb, for that matter.

More likely with grant.

Don't get me wrong, my point in part (a) was that there have been some questionable moves. But that happens to everyone from Jerry West on down. It's the other stuff that made me originally say that I wouldn't hire him. Then again, I have, as yet, not been able to procure an NBA team.

No, he traded Siakam for a couple picks. I don't know what you mean.
