Wemby would have been playing with Lillard.

Wrong pick, but not a bust.
Bagley, on the other hand…
The Pelicans have played a total of 18 seasons. Let’s not pretend like their lack of success compares to much older franchises like Minnesota or Charlotte, no offense.

LeBron was the single-most hyped player EVER. That hasn’t changed. The noise for Wemby was nothing compared to LBJ.
Klay isn’t even the best SG on his team.
Jokic. Curry already runs in a system where a big guy is actually the primary ball handler over a guard, so it would probably be a pretty seamless fit.
I don’t think back to backs are a big deal if there’s no travel involved. Home for 2 games in 2 days? No problem.
But if you gotta finish a game, get showered and dressed, get on a plane, fly god knows where, check into a hotel, try to sleep in an unfamiliar bed, get up, warm up, and play another game in 24 hours?
Bull fucking shit. You’re robbing the fans of quality games at that point.
Lillard is kind of a weird one. His percentages have never been too outrageously awesome when they are just listed as a 3-point attempt, but you pull up his shot chart and see he’s doing it on extremely difficult shots.
Lebron in his prime could play at 6’, but I don’t think the 38 year old version of him would be.
