if they pull off this KAT trade and we have three all stars in our starting line up and PAYING for them into the LT...we can safely say that Nick Ressler is truly helping this franchise. Not even the biggest hater could deny that.

Exactly. So far in the past 6 months we've only moved into better positioning as a franchise.

I'll take a real person as an owner that seems to want to win over a nameless mega corp as our owner any day

Asking again! 

One more time...are we still concerned about lil Nicky? 

Seems as if Fields and Korver are doing ok with the contact extensions for DJ and OO.

I never was.. the OO and DJ extensions are discounted. Great FO management so far.

I'm no longer on the ledge, but I haven't come down off the roof either.  At best, I'm in cautious wait and see mode.  Fields and Korver have been knocking shit out of the park.  I will come down if this translates into significant W's in the standings and/or if they can pull off a blockbuster that shifts the landscape.

Nick's title now reflects I'm guessing what his job always was.  Dad's right hand man.  Which is cool. 

[Final_quest]

I'm not concerned about Nick Jr for the moment, but he's still a wild card.  Optimistically he could convince his dad to spend money and make a big acquisition.  He could also tell his dad to do something completely stupid.

He hasn't been a pain of late. He's learning on the job. He did get so much negativity many months ago though but he's grew into his role.

We still on this topic?

Cool, nepotism exists. Shit got messed up. Now what are we going to do about it moving forward?

As far as I am concerned Nicky Ressler hasn’t been brought up as a negative impact since we added Quin to the fold.

I think this information is very old, even if the point is to place the today’s struggles on what took place (2) offseasons ago.

Either way, here we are in 2024. The biggest issues on this roster involve having too many good but not great players occupying rotation spots and salary cap. Most of these players were brought in by Schlenk. Most of them were re-signed by Schlenk. And as far as I know, Schlenk had not acquired a star to put next to Trae either.

The dysfunction is annoying as a fan, but the results are not drastically different. We have underachieved since the season we overachieved. We have Trae which is everything. We have DJ, JJ and Quin which is something.

Im not wasting anymore time crying about Nick Ressler. LF has said he runs the show. Quin has been reported to have input in what he wants to build this roster. That’s where we are. Lets get it done.

Nick really hasn't been causing any issues of late but everyone catching hell since shit hasn't been working plus the unattractive trade rumors where we get back ass for good assets.

The way I see it - too many voices with no clear direction.

We still on this because the foul stench of Ressler is real.  They can change the reality of the perception but until then, it's my post  and I'll whine if I want to.
