Sometimes, you can create a new problem by fixing another one. NBA teams have similar balances to strike.

Suppose you have trouble communicating. Plenty of people do. Perhaps you seek therapy and work through the issues. Congratulations – only, now you can’t stop communicating. You’ve become an annoying person.
