We all believe in second or maybe even third chances. The Washington Wizards, as it applies to Ernie Grunfeld, believe in many more chances than most of us.
Grunfeld has received more passes than arguably any other general manager in the NBA. After taking over as the general manager in 2003, Grunfeld has never reached the Eastern Conference Finals with the Wizards.
Grunfeld, who’s the fourth longest tenured manager in the NBA, has been criticized for virtually his entire career, and rightfully so.
Countless draft blunders and botches in free agency have set the Wizards back as a franchise.
