Rondo wasn't the best player on the 2014 Celtics. My point wasn't to argue for just any guy. My point was to note Kuzma is the best player on an NBA team. Yes, he's not perfect but you don't get to be the best player, the clear no 1 option, on an NBA team unless you're pretty damn good, even if flawed. The players I mentioned WERE "the best" on the team they were traded from, moreover, most turned out way better than expected, despite obvious flaws.
