Unless you decide sometime before last season that it’s all been a failure and burn it down then to start from scratch.

His biggest failure was not working around Mony, Johnny & Gio since 2015.
It was continuing to bank of them after 2018, 2019 & 2020.
Many people saw it wasn't going to work and was getting worse, he either still believed on them to get it done or he couldn't make trades happen.
The only positive of our situation now is there's no apologists or excuses left for this core (except maybe you).
Even BT will finally know its a failure, even if he was slow to get to this realization.
