Again, I think it's fair to give Kerr another season with this Shaq trade. If NOTHING else he's a great body to run picks around, if they had one more good, perimeter player I think they could compete. Who that player is, I haven't the least idea.
But I agree with the thought; keeping Marion was a bad thing. They wouldn't win this year, and then they would've lost him to free agency. Unfortunately Shaq might not've been the right replacement. But again, I still think it could work.
