I understand the vitriol for him. He went out of his way to try and injure Luka, and he (along with his brother) is as dirty as it gets for a basketball player. BUT we've been wanting that kind of player for a while. Pat Bev being a noted target on the board when he was a free agent.
His individual defense is average but he fits very well within a scheme. There's a reason why Ty Lue plays him 40+ mins in the playoffs. Can Maxi even play multiple games at 40+ mins?
You put me on a team with Kawhi, PG13, Covington and Batum and my team defense looks good.

Portland thought they will have 2 lottery picks, but New Orleans qualifying for play-off ruined that plan as the pick went elsewhere due to protections. They are not enthusiastic to trade their own and the only remaining lottery pick.

Same happened to the Pacers, who lost the Cavs pick, because they failed to qualify for the real play-offs.
