I think you still haven't understood what my point is re: badness versus mediocrity and the Hawks' contract situation, which is maybe my own fault by this point. Maybe the issue is partly that we clearly understood different things by mediocrity. If perpetual mediocrity means eight consecutive years missing the playoffs (in a league where more than half the teams make it) but not falling down the standings, sure, no one does that. I was thinking also of fruitless and inevitable-feeling first-round exits, or like someone else commented, years of unmemorable mediocrity and a 12th to 16th overall first round pick. But we clearly aren't getting anywhere with this, so like I said, let's just agree to disagree.
