Totally agree with you - if one thinks about Markkanen, it has to be about him as a starter. If one doesn't think he fits, it shouldn't be done.
Personally I don't really see how the fit could work great. But then on the other hand, we are not contenders with or without him. He would surely raise our ceiling and flexibility, especially at the TPE level salary. I wouldn't pay a FRP, because it would just kill our flexibility for forever. So if he accepts TPE and Chicago accepts something like young player and second rounders, I pull the trigger and try to make it work with him starting. If he plays all non KP minutes (roughly 18 per game), there are only like 10 minutes he has to share the floor with KP.
