Hmm... that's an interesting statement. Should the team say "we're good" and stand pat, or are we looking at one more acquisition, possibly a Ben Simmons or other guard? Just when we were getting ready to say Kolek can't do much to help us this year, Fred Katz wrote how much they love him.

Where's that?

Also, I think Kolek looked uneven in SL, but I feel like part of that was trying too hard to run a different offense, involve other players (first 2 games)

2nd two games were good

BuzzAI needs to update it's data set... rookie season for Kolek was erased by meaningless small sample set of 2 SL games so he sucks and should be included as a throw in with every fantasy trade idea for a washed up vet that's not good enough to get off the bench.

...but please keep Thibs hate level exactly the same because he didn't play the messiah as much as the Kolekult wanted and he's the reason the chosen one can't hit a shot yet while turning over the ball like it's covered in diddy oil.

No one talks about this but Kolek is likely learning a new system. Often that is hardest on the PG and especially a young one at that.

Why would we make this trade, when we could wait 5 years and then trade 34 year old KAT for Cooper Flagg

KAT for Klay, PJ and Gaff? This time of year is hilarious....

I saw an article, but neglected to link it. It said maybe Jordan Clarkson will be the backup point guard and we won't get any of the veterans being mentioned. Which I guess would allow another position to be filled. Wing? Center?

Gafford is the most valuable piece in that scenario anyway. Also sounds like we'd keep Mitch. Actually, Gafford and Mitch doesn't sound bad as our 5s. If Klay has anything left...maybe. Probably not but...?

I would be fine with Kevin Love! He still rebounds at a very high rate and knocks down threes at a decent clip for a big.
