I would be in favor of a Lauri move, although cost would definitely be the deciding factor for me. I would not want to give up Josh Green.
As far as fit, it would not be perfect. But I don't think it would be awful either. Couldn't Lauri be a younger not as experienced version of Gallinari? A guy who gets heavy bench minutes who looks to score. Who knows how he pairs with KP. Maybe it is something that could work. But who knows how long KP is here either. If KP is not better on defense next year, it will be a problem regardless who is next to him.
I may be biased because Lauri has had a few really nice games against Dallas where he was pretty agile around the rim. Sometimes players need a change of scenery. Sometimes it is a matter of time and place as well. Is that true for Lauri?
