You're being generous. I would have said that before he pulled that primadonna bit.

He may be a great player in time, but he was drafted for physical tools and didn't want to be patient and learn for us. There are dozens of players with amazing bodies and potential that also refuse to mature.

Maybe a new team will help him grow.

At the very least, he'll get 30-35FGA for New York and will play in the biggest market in the US. If he is unhappy, it's his own fault.

Will they win 35 games for the next few years? Probably not. Will he get to put up 25-8-8 in a big market? Sure.

But having DSJ and cap space will help them sign 2 max free agents, right? DSJ, KD, and Kyrie?
