wow, I find that view to be incredibly optimistic. If by a couple of years you mean 3...Giannis will be 27 with a 30 year old Middleton, Jokic will be 26 with a 31 year old Will Barton and 27 year old Jerami Grant, Karl Anthony Towns will be 26 with a 26 year old Wiggins, Embiid will be 27 with a 29 year old Harris, New Orleans will have a 22 year old Zion with a 31 year old Favors and a 24 year old Brandon Ingram, and Kawhi will be 30 with a 31 year old Paul George. Anthony Davis at 28 and Lebron at 37 might still be plugging away.
I'm high on Lauri and MCJ also, but I don't think our front court will be as good as these teams listed above. If you mean more than 5 years it could be whatever teams win the lottery the upcoming years, or the Pelicans/Thunder with all the draft picks they have.
I guess Lauri and MCJ could suprise me, but there's a lot of superstar talent in frontcourts right now.
Duck was referring to a 4-5 combination. Half the guys you mentioned are wings. Andrew Wiggins has no bearing on the Markkanen and Carter combination -- and even if he did, he's bad.
People are just prone to being negative.
Duck specifically mentioned OPJ when talking about our front court, the front court involves the small forward, and we’re seeing a trend more and more with small forwards playing power forward.
And really? I’m being negative by saying I think it’s optimistic to think we’ll have the best frontcourt in the NBA in a couple of years with Giannis, Embiid, KAT, Jokic, AD, and Zion in the league?
