We Shall See.
Leon Rose was touting our talent, our continuity, our stability, our youth...our coach.
It has been a long time, a long damn time, since we had a consistent cast of characters for more than a season at a time; since we procurred and nurtured a core of youth; since we reupped any of our homegrown players; since we avoided going all in and mortgaging our future in pursuit of "superstars" and "shiny objects."
Come Tuesday, we can hopefully move on from Donovan Mitchell remonstrations, and dipsticks like Stepehn A. moaning about how we HAVE TO HAVE A SUPERSTAR.
Uh huh.
Name ONE. Name ONE that is up for grabs on the open market?
Leon said we decided to move on.
WE SHALL SEE.
Last summer we [well, ME, anyway] were excited about Kemba Walker coming home, and reupping our vets.
Well, now Kemba is gone, as are Taj and Nerlens and Alec.
Leon says there are no edicts from on high for Thibs.
But he has surely been dealt a hand awash in youth.
Who are our "VETS" then?
Derrick Rose
Evan Fournier
Julius Randle
For that matter
Jalen Brunson
Mitchell Robinson
RJ Barrett
Think we can safely pencil them into Thibs rotation.
And from there?
WE SHALL SEE
