Can anyone give a good reason for keeping Grunfeld around after Leonsis buys the team. Grunfeld has made some boneheaded moves and driven this franchise right into the ditch. And now he thinks he deserves a chance to "rebuild" this franchise. I hope Leonsis is as smart as the Capital's record indicates and hires a new GM before the draft.
Boneheaded Moves:
Matched the offer sheet tendered by the Milwaukee Bucks to forward Etan Thomas.
Selected forwards Oleksiy Pecherov (18th overall pick)
July 13 2008
Re-signed guard Gilbert Arenas. This guy defecated in his teammates shoes.
June 24 2009
Traded forwards Etan Thomas, Darius Songaila and Oleksiy Pecherov and the 5th overall draft pick to the Minnesota Timberwolves for guard Randy Foye and forward Mike Miller. (Grunfeld thought that the Wiz were a Randy Foye and a Mike Miller away from going deep into the playoffs. You almost never give up the 5th pick in the draft...its too valuable)
Passed up Dejuan Blair
Not getting more for Caron Butler, Brendan Haywood, and Antawn Jamison....This represents the view of the user who wrote the FanPost, and not the entire Bullets Forever community. We're a place of many opinions, not just one.
