Boston signed Gordan Haywood. Breaks his ankle bad first 5 min. Bad
Trade for Kyrie Irving. KYrie walks away. Bad
Yet, they still right there contending the last 5 years!!
Philly? The process and post process have been awful. The Harden trade looks bad now he is unhappy. Again.
The process? Fultz at no. 1? Oka4? Ben Simmons unwound, its along list.
Yet, they right there too!
GSW? Wiseman? Kuminga not panning out yet. Gave that money to Poole.
They won a chip despite.
Miami? dear god they have a long list of mistakes and bad contracts. Beasley? Resigned Bosh? Riley gave 100mil to juwan howard (Stern disallowed it).....
yet these teams reconstitute themselves and bounce back.
ANy other "failures" to comment?
Knicks struck out on Frank, Kevin and Obi. Three lottery picks wasted.

I think the 2016 Lakers vs the 2020 Lakers is something to look at. They overcame D'Russell's antics in the locker and several years of moderate to unsuccesful lottery picks (in the rookie scale timeline) into Lebron and Davis and a chip. They found a number of gems out of next to nothing but playing time.
2018
Julius Randle
Brandon Ingram
Brook Lopez
Kyle Kuzma
Josh Hart
Alex Caruso
Jordan Clarkson
Luol Deng
KCP
Larry Nance
Gary Payton II
