The GM should have some room, but the owner points the direction. And doing risky braindead stuff, when you have someone like Luka, is a absolute no-go.

Is he supposed to sit on some 7th and 8th man on a championship rotation rather than take a chance on such a player with a late 1st round pick? 

That´s what the GM is paid for. To make such decisions. To find such value.

There are dozens of starters drafted #20+ that are far superior to Brunson and Kleber.

34th
17th
15th
10th
41st
22nd
35th
19th
Undrafted

You know what that is? The draft positions of the Bucks NBA finals rotation in order of minutes played. ONE LOTTERY PICK.

But I give you that is probably exactly the reaction the King of Short Sightedness Mark Cuban would have to such a trade proposal.

Exactly the reason why it is so interesting and crucial how much decision-making power Harrison truly has.

I expect Nico to make better deals.

Kleber averaged 5 points and 4 rebounds in 27 MPG in the play-offs. The year before be averaged 7 points and 7 rebounds in 34 MPG. You know the healthy version.

You can find a PF/C every summer for $9M to do that. The Knicks picked up Taj Gibson from the street and he did exactly that in the play-offs this year.

So a GM should pass up a chance for an (in his mind) franchise altering draft pick, because of a bench player that averages 6/6, whose production you can find every summer and on the buyout market in March.

Yeah that is braindead indeed, but congratulations I move you up to the #1 spot for user most likely to be Mark Cuban.
