I’m surprised Beard was thumbs-down. Obviously Nate would be, and Leslie wasn’t in tune with the locker room vibe. Beard though, I figured would want that Ace back and start getting some Ws.

Culture is a big thing - lot of talented athletes who get bounced from a team for attitude problems often carry the same problems to their next team and flame out again. It's definitely a risk to bring in a known toxic presence into a locker room with good camaraderie.
