This team was constructed in such a way that the window of opportunity was <i>supposed</i> to close around the time that the core group of Z/Lee/ARam started to reach the downside of their careers or once their contracts expired, whichever happened first. For whatever odd reasons, it turned out their collective expiration date was a bit sooner than anticipated. Everything else that has transpired since the 2008 playoffs makes very little sense to me, so I try not to look for answers, because there aren't any.
