re: To be clear, it would be incredibly stupid to fire Kim Anderson at this point

I've got to say, this notion that KA intentionally tanked the season that keeps popping up is one of the dumbest things I've ever heard.

I think it depends on how you look at it. I don't think that KA lost games solely for the purpose of losing games. I do think KA sacrificed the season for some things that he felt were for the greater good. Setting a tone. I don't know what led to all of the suspensions, but I would bet that in 5 years, after the tone is already set, those same actions would not lead to suspensions. So, in that sense, KA knew he was putting the team in a position where it was less likely to succeed but for what he felt was a greater good.
