And lets face it, the younger players we have up right now haven't shown a whole lot more than the vets over this stretch. It's easy to use confirmation bias to point fingers at the veterans, but they were the ones that drove the bus on the Colorado win, even as the kids led us to the win in Carolina. In the other games over this stretch, nobody has looked good overall.

This is a tough stretch. But as frustrating as it is, the only way to work through it at this point is to just let the players fight through and figure it out. Trades aren't going to pick up until after the Olympic break, and there's no point replacing the coach until Burke hires his puppet for the GM chair.
