Its a misallocation of resources. You are spending multiple firsts on two players that can give you 30 minutes a night but can't be on the court together. The same goes for Poeltl or any other starting center than will cost significant assets/cap. This strategy was debated in offseason before we knew what we had in Lively. I'm surprised folks still want to go this route knowing we already have a legit starting center on the roster.
