I have nothing against rebuilding, but you do that in the offseason, or at least wait until the trade deadline to make the moves.

You aren't going to get the best deals in terms of future assets only 10 games into the season - even in a short season. No team is going to put all their chips in for rentals this early.

Anyone who expects management to make rebuilding types of transactions in the immediate future will be disappointed because it either isn't going to happen, or we won't get great value. It's very defeatist to start talking about it this early into a season.
