in 2031, Cooper Flagg will be the same age Lendeborg is right now. I mean no disrespect to everyone super impressed with him, but OF COURSE he's doing well. It helps that he was drafted by an old team desperate to put him into the perfect role for him immediately. It's just a flat out good match for him in GS, imho.
He wouldn't be making such an impact here, I don't think, as he would be playing behind both Flagg and PJW (the roster overlap would be even worse) and it probably means the Risacher trade wouldn't have happened. Call me crazy, but Risacher's age and skillset complementing Flagg's is a big deal for me. I'm on record as being a little disappointed with Johnson's start, but I'm still high on his future and very happy with how things are.
