We have no choice but to trade Craw and Sweetney if we want to upgrade. Isiah droped the ball when he passed on the deal for Carter. With Carter, we wouldn't have to second guess the SG position, with Carter we would have a ledgit SG that would complement Marburry nicely. even if it included Jalen Rose, He should have pulled the trigger. Look a lineup of Marburry, Carter, Rose or TT, Sweetney, and Kurt is much better than Marburry, Crawf, TT, Sweetney and Kurt. Besides, Rose and Carter combined would produce a lot more than Mo Taylor and Malik rose.
Hindsight is 20/20 and I think they pulled out not Zeke. I think they didn't want to send him to NY. In any case, you couldn't have known he would be playing like this.
