Good points.
If you look at all the moves since Vlade became GM, he always had one finger on "blow it up (Vlade's Camp)" and one finger on "let's try to make if work with DMC (Vivek's camp)", problem is, you can't go half-way on this decision. Either "blow it up" and rebuild or build around DMC.
For all the Vivek bashers who are DMC supporters, I think Vivek was the one that wanted to keep DMC all along and Vlade and the FO wanted to blow it up.
Thus, this rushed trade, when Vivek finally had his moment of weakness and approved a DMC trade. Vlade had to pull the trigger.
For better or worse, we are in the "blow it up" phase, but Vlade at least planned ahead and has some young talent to build around in Buddy, WCS, Skal, Malichi, Bogdan and Papa.
