Please.
They are hardly the first, nor the last, team to get spanked in the first round in the playoffs and not immediately blow it up. There was a lot of potential with that team and moving core pieces out after the second best season in team history would have been a bold move. I would have to think Treliving would have had a hard time selling that to ownership. Even if he wanted to, I doubt he would have had the support to do so.
Let’s also not pretend that the Peters situation followed soon by a global pandemic hasn’t had an affect on the team and the league in many ways. Neither of those things can be laid at the feet of Treliving.
