A: Because that's what front-office types are charged to do, to seek out any and all possibilities and give them consideration. Anything short of that would be dereliction of duty. So when Kyrie Irving came on the market, any responsible executive had to ask whether there was the possibility to make his team better. Even the same with Carmelo Anthony. Most of the time the answer is no. But then you see trades like the one that sent Paul George to Oklahoma City and it makes you wonder whether your team could have/should have trumped such an offer. As the Celtics showed, a team's allegiance has to be to the team and perhaps the fan base. Because for as much as Heat fans may have taken to the possibilities of Don Waiters, James Johnson and last season's core, the objective for teams, just as it has to be for players, is to improve and evolve. That's why you have to keep an open mind. That's not being "obsessed." It's being "aware."
