I don’t think anyone said either of those things. At least not anywhere I saw.
I actually think that the fact that simply trading UFA’s who aren’t re-signing, and retaining to maximize return, when you aren’t in a playoff spot - is even a debate in this city shows we have some deep seeded organizational issues.
For literally every other team in the league that is just standard operating procedure. It would be absurd to do anything else in that situation.
And I don’t blame Conroy at all. He’s done the best he can. He inherited an absolute mess
