Jabari was drafted 11 years ago, hard to compare that time to now.

The more things change..

Maybe. The medical regime has been upgraded significantly since the Kohl era and I would hope/think there have been upgrades in other areas as well.

I'm not making any declarations, I'm just laughing at the full circle motions of "Kuzma is out of shape and might have a mental disorder" after all the Jabari stuff. (or Larry, or Khris, or Bogut, or Redd, or whoever)

Banchero is basically the guy Jabari could have been if things worked out.

Worse defender, more athletic banchero is basically the comp I made when that highlight tape was going around a few weeks ago

Unless I've just caught bad games, Banchero seems to be quite the horrible defender himself.

Yes but the flexibility of getting under the 2nd apron...
Now Kuzma and Pat can be packaged for Jerami Grant!

Kuzma always was a losing empty stats player, still can't believe we dealt positive assets for him.

You're going to get the lower tier aspect of that, because he's a lower tier player, but objectively was never near this bad.

The inefficiency is brought up, & yeah, he'd never hit league average efficiency. But he was consistently mediocre there, which is a lot better than this yr, or even Aaron Gordon was before he went to Denver.

So he sees the bump from probably getting in shape in the offseason unlike when he mailed it in for the Wiz tank squad. Then he needs to be convinced to be the good role player he indicated he could be early on. Not revert back to looking to get his. Otherwise he's going to get his in China.

Middleton was not a positive asset

We should have got Brogdon instead.

Kuzma was obviously a bad player to target from the start, just a brutal trade

Middleton and AJJ >>>>>>>>>>> Kuzma for sure

Why? They knew he drafted AJJ & then Doc, w/ the blessing of Haslam, seemingly compelled him to be offloaded immediately w/ Midds for Kuz. So Horst was either brought back to continue to provide cover for these bad moves, or to have more autonomy to make less.

If we still had AJ you would at least have the prayer that he turns into an allstar level player to save the second Giannis stanza.
