But Carlisle has made 27 year old, career chuckfest artist THJ the third scoring option and 29 year old Seth "Starter" Curry the starter. I don't see how you can get away with that in the Western conference, that won't be a playoff team if things remain the same.
With Jackson/Brunson though, there's some upside still, and they can elevate their games once they establish more chemistry and confidence in steadier roles. But we know how Carlisle operates, it won't happen.
Ride the vets baby.
Sadly, in the high likelihood that we make an in-season trade, Justin and Brunson - both of whom I like quite a bit - are likely to be the throw-ins to make it worth the other team's while to take on THJ.
