Have you ever walked by someone and thought, “man, that person looks familiar”? It’s as if you’ve dreamt of them before and they manifested themselves in your reality.
There they are.
That person—that thing, that you’ve seen before. You swear it’s true. You’re not crazy.
That’s the feeling I get every time Ernie Grunfeld makes a trade.
There it goes. There’s that person—that thing I swear I’ve seen before.
On Monday, Grunfeld traded Jodie Meeks for … who really cares? That is beside the point.
Meeks … the guy who was supposed to replace Bojan Bogdanovic … who the Washington Wizards acquired from the Brooklyn Nets for a first-round pick and Andrew Nicholson (a guy they signed the summer prior who gave Grunfeld instant buyer’s remorse), only to let Bogdanovic walk in the following off-season due to salary cap constraints … was traded for a pick after Grunfeld had buyer’s remorse.
