Just another fail by FO. They tried to convince people McGee is that. Come on, they are either stupid or think people are stupid to buy this kind of crap.
I have been saying the leader thing for years. This is why I was pro Lowry, for example. Or a guy like Horford.
I think this was an underrated part of Jalen. He was close to most of the guys. They hung out away from basketball. He provided stability.
I think Luka is well liked. But he is like the CEO of a Apple. At times, it can be stressful being around a player as good and talented as he is. I think Jalen provided some normalcy. I remember last year, Luka (I think only once) gave Jalen a really bad look when Jalen made a turnover. That gave me a really bad feeling.
