How much money is Knox consuming and giving us nothing? Again, we have to agree to disagree, but you can't just conveniently excluded Knox from the conversation. I think we can use what Bamba brings to the table even NOW more than what Knox is providing. And we're not even talking potential, I'm talking right now, today.
Knox specialty has never been shooting and it's been born out over the past 2 seasons so we empirically KNOW Knox is not a good shooter cause, you know, he demonstrated it. His potential upside was something else.
What is that "something else?"
Literally no idea. We should ask Fiz, he was the guy who pushed for Knox and was slobbering all over him after the workout against Miles Bridges. I hated that draft pick and was hoping for Mikal
Obviously if we could retroactively relive past drafts all of us would claim 100% success rate. But we can't and Knox is here so what do you do? Continue to wait on him to show some usefulness? Try to flip him and start fresh with someone else? Or hold out hope that Knox is going to be a key piece in a blockbuster trade?
