“I DID make calls but wasn’t able to get a deal done for any of the half dozen, clearly available, suitable combo guard options out there - because the other GMs were hard on me”
That doesn’t impress me very much as a resume builder for Weltman. Why would any GM EVER NOT try to “squeeze you” or vice versa? He’s too determined to not fail or look bad…I think his inaction looks even worse and his leverage will certainly not have improved after several more months of the offense looking even worse with less injured guys out and his young stars pointing out how even Cory Joseph is an improvement. Every day brings more evidence of his poor roster composition and makes the other GMs even “meaner”. I bet Pat Riley snickered at Weltman’s whiny TD story.
I can agree this is very possible. But there were calls that were rumors connecting this team to specifically Anfernee Simons and Coby White during the Trade Deadline.
Maybe teams were asking for a Combo of Black/Carter and this year's first round pick which to me is too much to give. We aren't in those rooms/phone calls to know.
Deals do have to be made in the offseason. They have to be more aggressive.

You can stop the trade machine anytime you want!
