If KP is here to start the season, that's just another failure on the MBT's part. No one in this love triangle are happy and even if that can be rehabbed, I just go back to the injury concerns. The only real question on my mind is how few pennies on the dollar are we going to get for him.
Hey, I'm the founder of the "get rid of Porzingis at all costs" political party around here, so I agree.
But, I disagree about the emboldened. I think every bad thing stems from his inability to move. Moving better wouldn't be a cure all - he'd still need to put lots of work in, as would the triangle of he, Luka and Carlisle, but at least there would be a reason to try it.
Defense, defense, defense. Can't compare him to Luka on that end, imo. He's way more vital to the team effort on that end than Luka, and I actually think Luka is steadily improving on that end. Good even, at times.
