If we want to win now, trade our youth for Chris Paul and other vets that will take us to the 2nd round before we exit. At least the front office can feel good about progress and fool some fans that we have a contender, while the rest of us laugh at the incompetency.
For me its not confusing at all. We are obviously prioritizing development of Fultz, Isaac and Bamba while surrounding them with veterans. Goal is not to contend right now, but play competetive games with 3-4 high ceiling prospects in the rotation. Last year we were forcing Bamba into rotation literally losing on purpose. If he didnt had injury we would be in the lottery.
This is the NBA only so much development going to happen ,?bamba keeps losing time to khem birch !!! Lmao , bamba is not a player to build around .the front office and organization is just not good . Vuc is by far the best player and they have failed to get anyone even as good as him much less better . Mo bamba draft was a huge mistake especially when they could have drafted Michae porter jr or SGA . Maybe it’s ownership , maybe it’s the front office but whoever is making these decisions are not good .
Lots of teams passed on Porter. He might have been the pick if his health reports checked out, but could you imagine if they took him and he was the next Greg Oden? Not being able to have an NBA career? Denver was in a no risk position to take him.
Some people have already given up on Isaac because of his injuries. Porter is in a good moment now but are his injury risks completely behind him? Aren't back injuries semi there forever?
Nobody was pounding the table for SGA in the top 5 either. He's outplayed his draft spot but you don't criticize a GM for that.
You are mad that Birch has played more than Bamba, but is that a reflection of Bamba being a forever bust? Or simply coaching strategy / decision / development? I do know that Bamba didn't have the strength he needed, but has since added a whole lot to his frame. I'm interested to see how he looks next season and hope he gets an opportunity.
