As great as Din has been for us, we could have had him during the offseason when we flat out stated our biggest need was playmaking "with size". A Din/Holmes offseason would have made way more sense then THJ/Bullock.But we’re winning against good teams. Maybe not having a legit starting center is no big deal. We look better than ever
But who knows, maybe we tried Dinwiddie (there were rumors) but he would rather run the offense in Washington than play second fiddle to Luka. Maybe his struggles in Washington was just what we needed for him to come here with the right attitude, but that seems more like luck than something carefully planned out.
I get that KP needed to go, and I am glad he is gone, but we left ourselves with no legit starting center and nearly 40 mil in long term contracts on overpriced shoot only players.
