Your mission – if you choose to accept it – is to defend the likely decision to retain Ernie Grunfeld as General Manager and President of the Washington Wizards. If you choose to accept this mission, you are on your own and will receive no support from WoA or any of their staff writers. WoA will cease to acknowledge your existence. You will be disavowed.
Mission accepted.
One last piece of advice before you take this mission on, “it’s not a lie if you believe it” – George Costanza
“It is said that if you know your enemies and know yourself, you will not be imperiled in a hundred battles” (Fine, maybe that’s a little dramatic, even for Ernie)
In an effort to understand the Washington Wizards‘ decision to possibly retain Ernie Grunfeld, I felt like I had to delve deep into what a defense of his tenure would consist of and in turn try to convince myself of the merits of it (that part didn’t go far).
