Management gambled and lost, and that is on them. None of this came out of the blue, except maybe Columbus being the final destination, but that part is irrelevant.
Managers don't need to be mind readers, but they do need to be able to read situations.

They didnt gamble and lose. We got to the second round since when? U want management to be ahead of whatever the next star is thinking and pull the trigger whenever things dont look right then dont b**ch about a team that misses or barely makes the playoffs year after year.
