Shouldn't this report card thingys be done AFTER the season, so, you know, you can judge how successful these transactions were in fact, rather then speculation?

"We must not confuse dissent with disloyalty.....We will not be driven by fear into an age of unreason.....We are not descended from fearful men, not from men who feared to write, to speak, to associate and to defend causes that were for the moment unpopular....We cannot defend freedom abroad by deserting it at home."

Yes they should wait to see how all of these moves actually turn out.  But sportswriters have to write about something, and since the start of the season is comming up, why not write a column like this.

Besides, we can all rip him later when it turns out he had no clue as to what was really going to happen.

Now, Rick, that makes much more sense to me.

Let's do a ranking of the NBA experts at the end of the season to see who did the best job of speculating before any of these players actually miss any practice time because they hurt their wrist playing Nintendo games until three in the morning.
