Just to play the other cards
Traded from a city you played your whole professional career in, you loved it there
Sign a huge contract larger than winning a lottery
Now in a market with scrutiny much greater than you’ve ever experienced
Expectations placed upon your team and yourself like you’ve never experienced before
Exotic sports cars to a pickup because it’s necessary
Your off time in a golf dome instead of a fairway
Must be quite an adjustment
Then a coach that demands professionalism
I wouldn’t be totally shocked if the exact same group returned next year with much better results
