I think I was the only person unhappy after draft night ended not to have a top 8 rotation player added to the team.
Either trade Kyrie an rebuild or get some players that can help you win now.
I don’t think there is anything wrong with having a short term and long term plan. I wish they had taken a chance on Whitmore though. You had someone who was rated much higher and slid and they went with a specific need position. Defensive rookie centers, especially one and dones, will take a few years to even get calls on the defensive side let alone have to wait for any offensive game to catch up.
My feeling is in the draft you always go BPA if a clear talent difference is visible and address specific immediate needs through FA.
I still feel they are in the Ayton hunt. Whether we agree with the fit or not that is a win now move.
