I suppose the reverse question is what's the best thing a new GM could do [that Brad presumably couldn't]?
I think the team is a mess and there is only faint hope of a succesful re-tool. I just don't see anyone else being able to navigate the next 3-6 months especially better.
I think the reality of this team is closer to what we saw Feb 2019-August 2020. Not the first 4 month run under Peters, and not the most recent 4 months, either. Which is still a mediocre team at best, but firing a GM over 56 games feels a little knee-jerk to me.

So lets say a new GM squanders them. And we finished bottom of the league for 2 years.
Is that a much worst scenario then where we are?
The best thing a new GM could do is show they are good at evaluating players worth and trade these players for assets to construct a TEAM capable of competing.
After 7 years I don't think Tre can do that. So a new GM at least has the potential. I don't think Tre is terrible at any 1 thing. But he is seems to be missing the vision to create a well constructed TEAM
And if they suck? Well we are in a forced rebuild. Not the worst thing.
