The way I see it is this: we had an elite offense with Seth and a healthy KP and a healthy DP last season. Unfortunately we couldn't see what this roster could have accomplished with Brunson, KP and DP out. The MBT came to the conclusion, that we needed defense around Luka. Thus they went after J-Rich and drafted Green, Bey and added Iwundu.
Now we must acknowledge that our defense hasn't improved at all. I'd say, it's even worse as we're worse on offense (leading to opponent transition). IMO the defense just can't be solid with KP. So we thought wing defense would improve things, which obviously didn't happen. Now we need to decide, what path to follow next year. IMO with Luka you cannot be satisfied with a great offense and a 2nd round exit. The defensive side must be the focus.
