I'm not arguing whether it's the proper method to build a team or not. I'm simply saying that Dawes gave examples that contradicted his theory, rather than support it.
I don't see where Rufus said the team shouldn't use free agency to help build the team. I did see him say the some of the free agents pimped by Whitlock have not amounted to much.
