It would seem like a perfect PnR fit with KP able to either pop and hit the jumper or roll and dunk. But who could have predicted his spatial awareness for the PnR would be so poor?
I understood your point but the reality is there is no guaranteed opportunity to get a player who you believe can become a foundational piece. You have to take chances when the opportunity does present itself. Sometimes those chances work out. Sometimes they don’t.
I didn't say you did. I said a better front office wouldn't have done that deal. It wasn't the right time. The team wasn't built to pivot should that trade not work out. And it wasn't like KP didn't have massive red flags when it came to health. There are good and bad times to take risk.
