I feel this isn’t mentioned enough on monumental fuck ups. Melo is 22 and looking amazing while Wiseman can’t even crack the rotation in Detroit.

He wouldn’t have been handed the keys as quickly, but he would have been mentored by Curry and Klay, while having a lot of similarities in his game. In 3 years, Melo will be 25 and Klay/Curry/Dray will be retired- will this look even worse as time goes on?

    Hindsight is 20/20 nephew. People make dumb posts like these thinking their vindictive when they’re really not. Lamelo wasn’t gonna get dibs over steph and klay.

    Same goes for the Kings and Doncic too. There’s a lot of misses in the draft. The issue is when you are picking top 5 it’s hard to pick for “fit”. You are picking that high you should really consider just going best player.

    It isn’t mentioned a lot because they won another title almost immediately after drafting wiseman (celtics are embarrassing) but you’re right. Huge missed opportunity to extend their title window and have a guaranteed star with life after curry klay and draymond.

    Oh well. It’s 1 mistake in like 10 years for the warriors they’ll be ok
