Your analysis of Kendrick, the man, is sharp and resonates. I'm less forgiving, and the ugly, ongoing transition remains more of a sore point with me, but I appreciated what he said in the interview w/ Nick. Part One, anyway ;-) It's nice (and appropriate) to hear this owner admit they messed up and not reflexively blame Colangelo, unrealistic fans or injuries for a change.
