He’s putting up same numbers as Porzingas. Realistically his only chance is a whole lot of injuries so the top people don’t qualify.

But what are the chances he even makes 65?

Reality is most coaches fail.

In Belichick tree it seems the coaches are often arrogant. Not sure they realize the Patriots way culture was a unique special circumstance that can’t be reproduced.

Dominique Foxworths podcast did a good job talking about it. You need a low round QB who starts a game manager. An underdog team that wins big which gels them together. Then that QB needs to become best ever while keeping the team attitude going.

The assistant coaches all seem to think they are the system and not that they are a product of the system.

In 2012 players were able to keep their Bird rights when switching teams so that took away one reason not to leave. Also around then Owners got the contract structure changed to short cookie cutter contracts. This allowed players to be free agents more often. Also because contracts are standardized made negotiations easier.

Milwaukee. Obvious one I can think of is what if they kept Kareem.

The other important one is what if they didn’t do the draft day trade of Dirk Nowitski for Robert “Tractor” Trayor.

Yes but it’s 16 years old. A new owner with a new team will want a brand new Arena. At most they would play there until a new Arena is built. Are Kansas City tax payers willing to spend the tax money to do that.

Kansas City could support an NBA team it’s just that there are more attractive cities available right now and no matter how great Mahomes is he does not factor into the decision one bit

If you’re not a Troll you need to lay off the Skip Bayless.

NBA has actually tried Kansas City and St Louis before and both teams left. Any new expansion owner is going to demand a new state of the art Arena. Sucks for tax payers but it is what it is. The build it and they will come method has pretty much failed for any city that tried it.

OP is obviously a troll but I will play.

Population of Reno 280,000.
Las Vegas 2.3 Million

No future owner would pay money (probably 1 Billion) to have a team in Reno over Las Vegas. The team value would be multiple times higher in Las Vegas. See Rams and Chargers as an example

It would go to the bottom as a Free agent destination.

Nevada nor Reno could get funding approved to build an Arena. Las Vegas would have an Arena approved tomorrow if they get an NBA team.

Las Vegas is pretty much guaranteed sell outs every night.

Las Vegas already has its own Reno called North Las Vegas.

There is not one compelling reason other than OP is a troll.
