Grunfeld was never a big Jordan fan. The defense coach from Boston signed here and left three days later because he realized how much they weren't on the same page. But yeah it isn't Jordan's fault that Arenas' knee fell apart. He really is half their team. Butler is quality but not a guy who can simply carry the load day after day after day and win you games. Jamison is a superb role player to me. He's is one of the only 20-10 guys in league history who is really just a role guy. As the third option he excels but his defense is awful and he can't suceed as a second option regularly. Plus they have no front court to speak of. They have some talent but nothing that gives them much right now.
