That actually is a pretty big issue if you think about it because KP's best attribute is shot blocking.

Yeah BUT with some easy rotation quirks Rick is able to reduce the KP/Vuc combo to 16-20 minutes a game easily. And you can also force opponent to go bigger at PF, when they are getting destroyed in terms of rebounding/2nd chance points etc.
I still dont have much worries about it. Sub out Vuc or KP early in the 1st and 3rd for Kleber and there you go....

Right now they only have two more wins and the same losses as we do AND we don't have KP. Not to mention Doncic is better than any prospect they have by far and KP is better than anyone else they have too.

Again, tricky situation for the GM, who pretty sure didnt expect such a season from Vuc. Paying Vuc now huge money on a long contract and he basically admits that his Bamba draft was shit. I also think it wouldnt take long and Bamba demands a trade after re-signing Vuc...
And playoff race in the east still open until #11. Even the Wizards have just two losses more
