They don't have guys that can both shoot and defend, and that's gonna be a huge problem.
As for the coaching I'm not sure how great Billy is, but Stevens is the second best coach in the league
Idk, i’d say Boston because I trust Stevens more and the roster feels like it was constructed to fit/play together. OKC doesn’t seem like they will fit together all that well
Reading up on the KG trade and I stumbled upon this:
”As draft day approached it appeared as if Ainge might have to use the No. 5 pick after all. He had targeted Chinese forward Yi Jianlian, whom Ainge rated as the player with the most upside in this draft”
Given Ainge’s drafting history this...
Talking about someone who puts no effort in on defense yet he has all the tools... how about Russ? (Not whether or not he’s a max player that’s indisputable).
But yea they’re worth a max contract because someone is willing to pay it
