I and any invested fan knew the names, playstyles, and strengths of all the contributors this year.

I had much higher than near-zero expectations that Pope and many of our good players would stick around this offseason. It didn’t turn out that way, but it was very reasonable to expect that Pope was going to stay for next year.

I think you’re exaggerating the negatives of the state of CBB.

You are right that the days of watching a player develop over multiple years are over, and that is sad.
