I'm feeling it, only because I think Danny and Stevens are trying to be creative and trying to build an environment that resembles what San Antonio has done.
Certainly, we are nowhere near where they are, BUT, I think Danny and Brad are aiming at RC and Pop's formula. Crafty drafting, crafty under the radar trades and FA pickups .. . build a team of strong role players or upside guys who buy into the team concept and genuinely like each other.
We're not there yet or even close, but I think there's something there that the OP is picking up.. .
