The MIL defense is great, but they are terrible at generating half-court offense in the playoffs, when teams are suddenly good enough to contain Giannis in transition. Sooooooo, to MIL officials and fans, if they fix THAT, they're golden. They're not thinking about what replacing Holiday with Lillard is going to do to that defense. It will be interesting, clearly.
Sometimes a team feels like they just need to change something. Yeah, they’re good, but that’s not enough.
I think back to the Rondo trade. Mavs just thought they needed to shake things up, get that missing piece that would put them over the top. Big fail.
But the trade to get Jason Kidd actually did. There were lots of skeptics on that one, too. And Devin Harris was a legit player. So they guessed right.
