The 1 2013 Offseason Decision Each NBA Team Already Regrets

The path to NBA hell is paved with GM intentions.

Few general managers intentionally sabotage their rosters—except for the ones who do (cough...Philly's Sam Hinkie...cough). And when they do, it's always for the greater good, or at least the lottery's no-guarantee equivalent thereof. So why are there so many bad teams? And why do some stay so bad for so long?

Decisions can haunt teams for years, long after their deciders have moved on. Spotting those decisions right away isn't easy, though.

Front offices are rarely the first to openly second-guess their own efforts. Making fans feel generally good about their teams is almost as important as building them in the first place. In turn, we hear spin, denial, optimism, evasion and all the usual "we'll wait and see" sentiments. It may take a long while for regret to sink in.

But not if I can help it. Let's embark upon some gratuitous nay-saying, shall we?
