you seem to say, they over-valued him before they drafted him and will
soon undervalue him due to impatience. Do you really believe that?
It's not like he's that old.
Agreed. Again. In two years when they have more cap space they will still be very young and Ves will only be 24. Kevin S will be 24. Beal will be 21. Wall will be 24. etc. etc.
Now is not the time to be over judging Ves or being overly critical of what this team is. Everyone will have more to work with after this year is done.
People seems to keep missing the very basic formula that they are following.
They have 3 top 6 picks. One is a #1 who has 2 years experience and 1 is a #3 that played 4 preseason games. One is a project big #6 who played in one strike shortened season with no summer game. Ves doesn't need to be an all star this year. He doesn't even need to be one next year. They have time to work this out.
They have a bunch of other young mid range talent who could still blossom. Kevin is looking pretty damn good. Two years ago people though he was a bust. Booker look very limited offensively his first year. Now some thing he could have a great year and they expect him to hit from midrange. After year one, not many though he would had a mid range game. His shot looked terrible.
And they have a sprinkling a vets all of which are on one or two year contracts except one. NENE who is one a four year deal.
This is what they said they would do and it is what they did. Now they play the games and see how they progress.
Considering we have had a few visitors from other teams posting here saying they thing the Wiz are playoff worthy if healthy, I think to many hear are holding onto sour grapes. Just draw a line in the sand and look forward. Things are actually different. If just a matter of when some of you realize it.
