Whether a team is under or over performing, who's gonna be a complete opposite by the end of the season compared to now?

I mean their intent to do it seems pretty clear now, they just can't make any moves until other teams' contracts become tradeable, along with those other teams having a clearer picture of their situations/needs for the rest of this season. You can't really fault them for not blowing it up right this second, when's the last time we saw a major trade happen in November?

But you can definitely fault them for going into this season with optimism after making zero major moves this offseason. What did they expect was going to happen? They had every opportunity to blow it up this offseason, yet they stood pat.

I think they expected to be a borderline play-in team again and figured that was just fine for selling tickets, but then it quickly became clear they wouldn't even be good enough for that (like 1-2 weeks after the season started lol). Now they're stuck with this mess until at least mid-December at the earliest, if not the trade deadline.
