Chandler *was* enough by most mainstream, credible accounts.
Even *if* he wasn't....it is 100% clear we *could* have done it. And done it without giving up a king's ransom....
And ya, just look at what MIN did. It was just a golden, ripe opportunity all-around to make a deal to get Curry....
AND, you'd think when we got shat on by being so dopey and conservative, and they all got snatched up (Rubio, Curry, Tyreke)....that we'd then reflexively take a shot on PG Jennings(!)
It really pisses me off what Walsh did, or didn't do, that draft.
And then he acts like some Crusader in being open to anything and everything in dumping Jeffries, lol....Only to revert back to that same brand of lame, conservative, hoping after MIA/CHI counter-moved...and just pray the players fell into our laps.
I totally agree. I'm still trying to decide what was the worst moment:
1) When GSW selected S-Curry
or
2) When I heard J-Hill's name announced
Both were the worst feelings I had being a NYK fan since all those time we lost to the Bulls. Talk about pain. It still stings and tastes bitter!
A huge, collossal mistake not getting Curry.... But then to pass on Jennings or LAwson, that was compounding the boner. Repeating the mistake.
Again, the first thing you do when you hire MD, is to find his QB. A PG should have been priority number one. ALL ESLE WAS BS.
You hire MD, you clear space to make a run at LJ, and the one asset you have to procur is the PG of the future for the new coach.
To draft 2 project forwards with the 2 lottery picks (your best chance to build something to lure LJ) was assinine! No doubt. Even if MD is talking you into a certain player... OVERRULE HIM!
