The question is: would accelerating the timetable result in a competitive team way sooner? Isn't OG basically a version of the player we're hoping O-Max can be? If the team is better than expected, and is knocking off maybe 50% of their Denver-like opponents, I can see the temptation to accelerate the timeline being real. I don't expect that to happen, but what if it does? Heck, maybe even including O-Max helps get the deal done. I'm just asking questions today.
I think the timetable depends on Lively. If they feel he's ready to make the leap by sometime next season, they should absolutely pull the trigger on the best wing defender in the league (OG). If not, those trade assets might need to be spent elsewhere.
