I am getting to the point that I hope they find a taker for him at the deadline. Even if it was for a few seconds and clearing out the salary.
I am just wondering if Max plus a guy like Hardy (but with more creatition and defense) is the fit. A guy who can provide offense off the bench. Maybe that is Klay, but the flow in the offense is not one where he can excel at the moment. And the rest of his game is pretty limited.
I never thought he was a great fit because of the necessity to put him in the starting lineup. He would have been great as a Timmy replacement, but that was never an option. I think a Kyrie/Klay backcourt puts a ceiling on how good this team can be defensively.
