I would think we'd be a little more humble about our understanding of that at this point, but I guess not.
Point being: for all we know, O-Max could be ensconced in the rotation by Christmas.
That would be great. I still wish we'd send him to the G-league for a while so he could play some minutes against other professionals.
I was definitely wrong about Lively's readiness so I'll be glad to see OMax contribute later this year.
It's telling though that Kidd doesn't trust him enough to try him despite Maxi's struggles.
