i think it was understated on how horrible the team was when it started this rebuild. They absolutely burnt everything to the ground and essentially became a bad expansion team. I do tend to agree that with the current management nothing will change because to build a successful team you need to be able to recognize talent outside the top ten in the draft. I do have a worry that they will collect another first overall and then clue in and get rid of Lowe.

I also think it is a bit a karmic justice with them intentionally sucking to get picks when they did. Being bad is one thing, but being bad at the right time can really help a team.
